Usage notes

• manufacturer says, “air fries, bakes, boils, broils, dehydrates, grills, roasts and steams”
• manufacturer says, can cook from frozen. (Many purchasers advise to thaw first nonetheless.)
• You can cook veggies and meat at the same two, on the two different level racks, you just have to get the timing right for when to add each
• The halogen bulb is not replaceable when it burns out, you have to buy a whole new lid
• “When handle is in off position or lowered, there is a little lever that protrudes push that in and out.This lever in not in the handle but in the unit itself. The handle just pushes it on or off.” ^[1]Amazon Customer Review. 30 July 2013. https://www.amazon.com/gp/forum/cd/discussion.html/ref=cm_cd_al_tlc_cl?ie=UTF8&asin=B003DNRGAS&cdAnchor=Mx27H6O142GCDXE
• Upper grill just has three legs instead of four, some customers have pointed out it’s a bit tippy for that reason
• Do not try to turn the timer dial counter clockwise or you will break it
• Some users report there is too much moisture retained in the machine for successful dehydration to occur
• Some users report that the FlavorWave cooking accessory kit will fit this machine ^[2] https://www.amazon.com/review/R12XLYHU0MWTAL/ref=cm_cr_pr_cmt?ie=UTF8&ASIN=B003DNRGAS#wasThisHelpful Link: https://www.amazon.com/Flavorwave-Turbo-4-Piece-Deluxe-Accessory/dp/B002UKP9S6/ref=cm_cr-mr-title
• Lettering can wear off the dials quite quickly. Some people advise putting clear tape over the lettering to protect it;
• Metal tinish wears off metal racks quickly, it’s just sprayed on
