Shake Reminder

The Shake Reminder is designed to remind you to check on your food, usually to shake it. Press SHAKE to turn on the Shake Reminder. You can use the Shake Reminder with any cooking function except Toast and Bagel. We especially recommend using the Shake Reminder with the Air Fry function (see page 17). The Shake Reminder will appear halfway through cooking time. If SHAKE is pressed during cooking, it will appear halfway through the remaining cooking time. The Shake Reminder will alert you with several beeps, and "SHAKE" will blink on the display. The Shake Reminder will go away once you open the oven door to take out the basket.

What to Shake

Small foods that are stacked, such as fries or nuggets, will usually need shaking. Without shaking, food may not be crispy or evenly cooked. You can flip other food, such as steak, to ensure even browning.

How to Shake

  • Add the Shake Reminder to your cooking program by pressing SHAKE. 
  • We recommend using the fry basket 
  • if you are shaking food. You can optionally use the rack or tray instead. 
  • When the Shake Reminder appears, take the fry basket out of the oven and shake, mix, or flip the food. 
  • To shake food, hold the basket just above a heat-resistant surface for safety purposes. Then, shake the basket 
  • If the basket is too heavy to shake, place the basket on a heat-resistant holder or surface. Then, shake the basket. Do not use this method if there is a risk of hot liquids splashing. 
  • If the basket is too heavy to shake and there are hot liquids present, place the basket on a heat-resistant holder or surface. Use tongs to mix or flip the food. 
  • When you open the oven door to take out the basket, the oven will pause cooking automatically. When you close the door, cooking will automatically resume.
  • Avoid shaking longer than 30 seconds, as the oven may start to cool down.

CARE & MAINTENANCE

These will scratch or damage their surfaces.  This oven contains no user-serviceable parts. Any repairs should be performed by an authorized service representative. 

  1. Before cleaning, tum off and unplug the oven, and allow it to cool completely. Open the door for faster cooling.
  2. Apply non -abrasive liquid cleanser or a mild spray solution to a soft, damp cloth or sponge (not the oven surface) and wipe all parts of the oven. Do not use a dry cloth on the display screen, or it may be scratched.
  3. To clean the glass door, use a glass cleaner or mild detergent and a soft, damp sponge or soft, plastic scouring pad.
  4. Let all surfaces dry completely before plugging in or turning on the oven.

Cleaning the Accessories 
Note: After each use, slide out the crumb tray and discard crumbs. 

  1. Apply non -abrasive liquid cleanser or a mild spray solution to a soft, damp sponge or soft, plastic scouring pad (not the accessory surface). Wipe accessories and soak in warm, soapy water if necessary.
  2. For stubborn grease:
    1. In a small bowl, mix 2 US tbsp / 30 mL of baking soda with 1 US tbsp / 15 mL of water to form a spreadable paste.
    2. Use a sponge to spread the paste on the accessories and scrub. Let the accessories sit for 15 minutes before rinsing.
    3. Wash with soap and water.
  3. Dry thoroughly.
  4. Replace the crumb tray into the oven before plugging in or turning on the oven.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

Follow basic safety precautions when using your smart air fryer toaster oven. Read all instructions.

Key Safety Points

  • Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handle.
  • The outside of the oven, including the door, is hot during and after use.
  • Always use heat-resistant gloves, pads, or oven mitts when handling hot materials, and when placing items in or removing items from the oven, including trays, racks, accessories, or containers.

General Safety

  • When the oven is not in use, and before cleaning, press the power button to turn it off, then unplug from the outlet. Allow to cool completely before putting on or taking off parts.
  • Do not immerse the housing, cord, or plug in water or liquid.
  • Closely supervise children near the oven.
  • Do not use your oven if it is damaged, not working, or if the cord or plug is damaged. Contact Customer Support (see page 33).
  • Do not use third-party replacement parts or accessories, as this may cause injuries.
  • Do not use outdoors.
  • Do not place the oven or any of its parts on a stove, near gas or electric burners, or inside another heated oven.
  • Be extremely cautious when removing a tray or rack if it contains hot oil, grease, or other hot liquids.
  • Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Metal fragments can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock.
  • Clean the crumb tray after using. Accumulated grease and crumbs can overheat and catch fire.
  • Do not store anything on top of your oven when in operation. Do not store anything inside your oven other than recommended accessories.
  • Do not operate with a separate remote-control system.
  • Only use as directed in this manual.
  • Not for commercial use. Household use only.

While Cooking

  • Do not place oversized foods or metal utensils (except for Cosori accessories) into your oven.
  • Do not place paper, cardboard, or non-heat-resistant plastic into your oven, or any materials which may catch fire or melt.
  • To avoid overheating, do not use metal foil in the oven unless directed. Use extreme caution when using foil, and always fit the foil as securely as possible. If the foil contacts the oven's heating elements, this can cause overheating and risk of fire.
  • Never put baking or parchment paper into the oven without food on top. Air circulation can cause paper to move and touch heating elements.
  • Always use heat-safe containers. Be extremely cautious if using containers that aren't metal or glass.
  • Keep your oven away from flammable materials (curtains, tablecloths, walls, etc.). Use on a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface away from heat sources or liquids.
  • Immediately turn off and unplug your oven if you see dark smoke coming out. Food is burning. Wait for smoke to clear before opening the oven door.

Plug & Cord

  • Your oven has a polarized plug (one prong is wider than the other), which fits into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, do not use the plug in that outlet. Do not alter the plug in any way.
  • Do not let the power cord (or any extension cord) hang over the edge of a table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
  • Note: This oven uses a short power-supply cord to reduce the risk of entangling or tripping. Use extension cords with care. The marked electrical rating of the extension cord must be as great as the rating of the oven (see page 3).

Electromagnetic Fields (EMF)

This oven complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.
