[Beginner’s Guide] First-Time Use of Your Air Fryer – APIX INTL Tips for Perfect Results!

Introduction

Welcome to the world of effortless and healthy cooking with your new APIX INTL Air Fryer! Whether you're preparing crispy fried chicken, roasted vegetables, or delicious desserts, your air fryer can do it all with little to no oil.

But before you start, here’s a step-by-step beginner’s guide to ensure safety, optimal performance, and long-lasting use of your air fryer.


Step 1: Unboxing & Initial Setup

 Remove all packaging materials, including protective films and foam.
 Check accessories (basket, tray, user manual) to ensure nothing is missing.
 Wash the basket & tray with warm soapy water before first use (do not submerge the main unit in water).


Step 2: First-Time Preheating (Essential!)

🔥 Why? New air fryers may have a slight factory odor due to manufacturing oils.
🔥 How?

  • Place the empty basket inside.

  • Set temperature to 200°C (392°F).

  • Run for 10 minutes to burn off any residues.

  • Let it cool and wipe with a damp cloth.


Step 3: Cooking Safely – Do’s & Don’ts

 DO:

  • Lightly coat food with oil (for crispiness).

  • Shake or flip food halfway for even cooking.

  • Use oven-safe containers (ceramic, metal, or silicone).

 DON’T:

  • Overfill the basket (blocks airflow, uneven cooking).

  • Use plastic or paper plates (melts at high heat).

  • Put whole eggs or sealed jars (risk of explosion).


Step 4: Easy Cleaning & Maintenance

🧼 After each use:

  1. Unplug and let it cool.

  2. Remove the basket and wash with warm soapy water (non-abrasive sponge).

  3. Wipe the interior with a damp cloth (never immerse in water).

  4. Dry thoroughly before next use.

🔹 Use a light oil spray (avoids excess oil pooling).
