Initial Heating Settings

First HeatingManually set temperature and time205°C / 15min

After about 8 minutes, flip the food over and check for any areas that are burning. Check the condition of the food when the cycle ends. Examine the thickest part to verify that the center meets the cooking criteria. Transfer any items that meet the completion criteria to a clean plate. For items that do not meet the criteria, if there is no burning or other abnormalities, remove the probe and return the item to the air fryer, then resume cooking for the remaining time originally set. If the item is not done by the end of the set time, stop heating and proceed to the final check step. If the food has started to burn, do not resume cooking; 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.

Remove the seeds and fibrous center of the pumpkin, then cut it into even pieces. After preparation, preheat the air fryer.

Check Before Cooking
  • Cut into uniform cubes of up to 20mm, including the skin. Do not use this setting for thin slices or large halves.
  • 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

    Cut into uniform pieces

    Wash the pumpkin and remove the seeds and pulp. On a stable cutting board, cut it into manageable pieces and dice them into cubes no larger than 20mm. If the pumpkin is too hard to cut safely, use pre-cut pieces instead.

  2. 02

    Coat with oil

    In a bowl, lightly toss the pumpkin with olive oil and salt to coat it evenly. If it’s too wet, pat it dry first.

  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.

  4. 04

    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 so they do not overlap. Return the basket to the unit, manually set the temperature to 205℃ and the time to 15 minutes, and start the cycle. Do not use the preset’s default time. After approximately 8 minutes, flip the ingredients over and check for any areas that are burning too much. For mid-process checks, follow the “Completed,” “Not Completed,” or “Abnormal” status indicators in the heating stage section, and use the controls in the conditions section to stop or resume the process.

    Check the condition and finish cooking

    Check that a bamboo skewer slides through the center easily and that the edges are not hard. Sprinkle with black pepper to taste and serve.

    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 a bamboo skewer does not pass through the center of the pumpkin smoothly, stop heating and do not eat it. Do not repeatedly heat the pumpkin based on guesswork unless you can confirm the appropriate settings for 300g of pumpkin, 20mm cubes, and starting from refrigerated temperature in the official instructions or product labeling.

If you get stuck along the way

The center is hard

Check to make sure there are no large lumps. If the dish has not reached the desired state of doneness, stop heating and proceed to the final check.

The corners get burnt

Next time, I’ll cut the pieces uniformly and rotate them halfway through. I haven’t verified the flavor or exact cooking time using the actual appliance yet.
