Getting Started

Three steps and you’re cooking

01

Unbox & Inspect

Power Up

Place the Fritaire on a flat, heat-resistant surface with at least 20cm of clearance on all sides. Plug into a standard 120V outlet. The display will illuminate.

03

Choose a Mode

Place your meal or ingredients inside the air fryer and select a cooking function using the one-touch control panel or set the time and temperature manually. Press Start and your Fritaire does the rest.

Self-cleaning in 5 steps

1

After cooking, remove all food and accessories from the glass bowl.

2

Add 1-2 inches of water and a couple drops of gentle dish soap to the glass bowl.

3

Close the lid securely. Set the temperature to 400Β°F and the timer to 10 minutes.

4

Once the timer goes off, make sure to wait for 5 minutes for the glass to cool down.

5

Once cooled, remove the lid, rinse the water out of the bowl, and wipe down.

Tip: The accessories are dishwasher-safe, so you may clean them manually or with a dishwasher.

Questions

Common how-to questions

Fritaire preheats in under 5 minutes. Because the glass bowl retains heat differently than metal, we recommend preheating before most recipes.
Yes. You can run the self-clean cycle as often as needed. We recommend running it after every 3–5 uses or whenever you notice grease buildup on the glass.
Small roasts, lamb, pork tenderloin, chicken pieces, and even large vegetables work great on the rotisserie spit. Keep the total weight under 1.5 lbs and secure the forks tightly.
Because of the glass cooking bowl and circulating airflow, many foods don’t require oil at all. For crispier results or to season, a light mist of cooking spray or brush of oil is optional.
You can lift the lid to check on food, but handle it carefully β€” the heating element sits in the lid. Set it down on a heat-resistant surface with the element facing away from you, never on fabric, and don’t open the lid while the rotisserie or tumbling basket is turning.
The Rotisserie Spit, Tumbling Basket, Air Stand, and Grabber are dishwasher safe β€” or hand wash them with warm soapy water. The top burner lid and the motor never go in the dishwasher, and the motor should never be immersed in liquid. Clean the glass bowl with the self-clean cycle.
