Initial Heating Settings

First HeatingManually set temperature and time205°C / 12min

After about 6 minutes, use tongs to turn the food over and check how the skin and cut surfaces are browning. Check the condition after cooking is complete. Check the thickest part and verify that the center meets the criteria listed in the “Finished Product” section. Transfer any pieces that meet the criteria to a clean plate. If the food does not meet the criteria, but there is no burning or other abnormalities, remove the testing tool, return the food to the air fryer, and resume cooking for the remaining time originally set. If the food is not done by the end of the set time, stop heating and proceed to the final check. Do not resume cooking if the food has started to burn. If you notice smoke, an unusual odor, or an error indicator, stop the appliance immediately, discontinue use, and follow the instructions in the user manual.

If the food has not met the completion criteria after the initial heating, and there is no burning or other abnormality, perform only 1 additional heating step. If it still fails the recheck, do not eat it.manual205°C / 1min

Instructions for preheating, mid-cooking checks, and how to check for doneness are included in the preparation instructions.

Cut the eggplant and toss it with oil and seasonings. After preparing the ingredients, preheat the air fryer.

Check Before Cooking
  • Cut the eggplant into cubes no larger than 25mm. Do not use this setting for long halves or whole eggplants.
  • Attach the Crisp plate and arrange the ingredients in a single layer without stacking them. If they do not fit, do not start heating; proceed to the “Arrangement” section in the conditions. The 4.7L specification does not indicate a maximum food weight limit.
  • The instructions call for preparing the air fryer while it is cool, preheating it to 205℃ using the “Preheat” setting, and then adding the ingredients. The standard preheating time for this temperature is 4 minutes.
  • Do not place food or paper inside while the appliance is preheating. Do not use the water-addition mode, and do not let water, oil, or sauce accumulate in the basket. Ensure proper ventilation of the plate.
  • Cover ingredients that will be used later and refrigerate them.
  • Before heating, arrange the specified amount for one batch in a single layer with gaps, and check that everything fits. If it does not fit, do not start; choose an official procedure for the same model that matches the amount and thickness. Do not split it into batches while keeping the original time or scale the time in proportion to the weight.
  • If you pull out the basket while holding down the basket release button, the heating and timer will pause. Place the basket on a trivet to check it; when you return it, the cycle will automatically resume. To stop the cycle while it is running, press the Start/Pause button. Remove the food once it is ready; if it is not yet ready but shows signs of burning or other abnormalities, do not return the basket to resume the cycle.

  1. 01

    Coat the eggplant with oil

    Wash the eggplant, pat it dry, remove the stem, and cut it into cubes. In a bowl, toss the cubes lightly with rice bran oil until evenly coated.

  2. 02

    Prepare the ginger sauce separately.

    Mix the soy sauce, water, and ginger in a clean small bowl. Do not add the sauce to the air fryer; use it as a finishing touch. If using green onions, chop them beforehand.

  3. 03

    Preheat the unit

    Properly attach the Crisp plate to the basket, then place it back in without adding any food. Select “Preheat,” set the temperature to 205℃, and start the cycle. Wait for the 4-minute preheat cycle—which is set automatically—to complete. Prepare a heat-resistant surface where you can place the hot basket.

    Arrange them in a single layer and heat manually.

    Once preheating is complete, remove the basket and arrange the ingredients on a plate, leaving space between them without stacking them. Return the basket to the unit, manually set the temperature to 205℃ and the time to 12 minutes, and start the cycle. Do not use the preset initial time. After about 6 minutes, use tongs to turn the ingredients and check the browning of the skin and cut surfaces. For mid-cooking checks, follow the “Completed,” “Not Completed,” or “Abnormal” determinations in the heating stage column, and use the controls in the conditions column to stop or resume the process.

    Check the condition and finish cooking

    Once a bamboo skewer passes through the thickest part and the inside is tender, coat it with the sauce from the small bowl. Sprinkle with green onions to taste.

    Discuss these instructions
  6. 06

    Verify the completion criteria

    If the dish does not meet the completion criteria, stop heating and proceed to the final check step. If the surface begins to burn, do not continue heating as is; stop adding more food.

    What to check if the food is not yet done

    If the thickest part of the eggplant is not tender, stop heating and do not eat it. If you cannot confirm the appropriate settings for 220g of eggplant, cut into cubes no larger than 25mm, and starting from refrigerated temperature in the official instructions or product labeling, do not repeat the heating process based on guesswork.

If you get stuck along the way

Only the skin remains hard

Next time, cut the ingredients uniformly and check for uneven oil coating. Do not extend the cooking time to the point where they burn.

Strong flavor

You don’t need to use all of the sauce. Toss the food with small amounts of the sauce just before serving.
