Step 1: Unplug the Air Fryer
Before resetting your Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer, make sure to unplug it from the power source. This is an important safety precaution to ensure that no electrical accidents occur while you are handling the appliance.
To unplug the air fryer, simply grasp the plug firmly and pull it out from the electrical outlet. Do not pull on the cord itself, as this may damage the cord or the plug. Make sure to keep the plug away from any water sources or wet surfaces to avoid the risk of electrical shock.
Once the air fryer is unplugged, you can proceed with the next steps to reset the Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer and troubleshoot any issues you may be experiencing.
Step 2: Wait for 5 minutes
After unplugging your Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer, it is important to wait for 5 minutes before proceeding with the reset process. This waiting period allows the air fryer to cool down and for any residual heat to dissipate.
During this time, it is recommended to carefully read the user manual or review the specific instructions for your model of the air fryer. Familiarize yourself with the reset procedure to ensure you follow the correct steps.
Why is waiting important?
Waiting for 5 minutes is crucial to prevent any potential accidents or damage during the reset process. The air fryer can be hot and may have residual heat that can cause burns or harm if handled immediately after use.
This waiting period also allows the internal components of the air fryer to reset and calibrate properly. It ensures that any lingering settings or errors are cleared, and the air fryer can start fresh after the reset.
What to do during the waiting period?
While waiting for 5 minutes, you can use this time to gather any additional tools or ingredients you may need for your next cooking session.
If you have any questions or concerns about the reset process, you can consult the troubleshooting section of the user manual or contact the Instant Vortex Plus customer support for assistance.
Once the 5 minutes have passed, you can proceed to the next step of the reset process.
Step 3: Plug the Air Fryer back in
After waiting for a few minutes, plug the power cord of your Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer back into a grounded electrical outlet. Make sure the outlet is functioning properly by testing it with another appliance.
Ensure that the air fryer is placed on a stable and flat surface to avoid any accidents. Double-check that the cord is securely plugged in and there are no loose connections.
Once the air fryer is connected to the power source, the control panel will light up, indicating that it is ready to be used.
Note: It is essential to follow the correct steps to unplug and plug in your air fryer, as improper handling may lead to electrical issues or damage to the appliance.
To ensure safety, make sure to read the user manual provided by the manufacturer for any specific instructions related to power connection and usage.

By pressing and holding the Start/Stop button, you will initiate the cooking process. The Instant Vortex Plus Air Fryer will preheat to the required temperature and then start cooking your food. The Start/Stop button may have a light indicator to show that the cooking process has begun.
It is important to note that the Start/Stop button needs to be held for a few seconds to ensure that the cooking process starts. This helps prevent accidental presses and ensures that the air fryer begins cooking at the right time.
If you need to stop the cooking process at any time, you can simply release the Start/Stop button. This will pause the cooking process, and you can adjust the settings or remove the food if needed.
