To preheat the Cuisinart TOA-70, set the desired temperature using the temperature knob and then set the timer for 5 minutes to allow the air fryer to reach the required temperature before placing your food inside.
Ensure the Cuisinart TOA-70 is unplugged and completely cool. Remove the crumb tray, baking pan, and air fryer basket. Wash these components with warm soapy water or place them in the dishwasher. Wipe the interior and exterior with a damp cloth. Avoid using abrasive cleaners.
Yes, you can cook frozen foods in the Cuisinart TOA-70. Adjust the cooking time slightly longer than fresh items, and use the air fry function for best results. Consider preheating for optimal cooking.
Check that the appliance is properly plugged into a working outlet. Ensure the timer is set, as the oven will not start without this feature being activated. If it still doesn’t turn on, check the circuit breaker and consider contacting Cuisinart customer service.
Lightly coat the basket with cooking spray or line it with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Ensure not to use too much oil, as this could lead to smoking.
Some smoke is normal, especially when cooking foods high in fat. Ensure the crumb tray is clean to prevent excess smoking. If persistent, reduce the temperature and check for any leftover food particles inside the oven.
For crispy chicken wings, preheat the air fryer to 400°F and cook for 20-25 minutes. Flip the wings halfway through cooking for even crisping.
The convection feature is automatically activated when using the air fry, bake, and roast functions. It circulates hot air around the food for faster and even cooking. No additional settings are required.
The air fryer basket can accommodate up to 3 pounds of food. Avoid overcrowding to ensure even cooking and optimal air circulation.
Ensure the food is arranged in a single layer and not overlapping. Flip or rotate food halfway through cooking. Check that the oven is on a level surface for consistent heat distribution.
