FAQ
How does the water atomizer work?
The water atomizer releases a soft mist of water from the built-in tank during cooking. This moisture mixes with the hot air circulation to keep food tender and juicy inside while still achieving a crispy exterior.
Do I have to use the water atomizer every time?
No, the water atomizer is optional. You can use the air fryer as a traditional model without adding water. However, the atomizer really shines for foods that tend to dry out like chicken breasts or fish.
How often do I need to refill the water tank?
It depends on cooking time and frequency of use. For most meals, one fill is sufficient. The tank is easy to access and refill as needed.
What are the 10 cooking presets?
The AF502 includes presets for Fries, Chicken, Shrimp, Pizza, Steak, Fish, Chicken Fillets, Cake, Bacon, and Cookies. Simply select your preset and the air fryer automatically sets optimal time and temperature.
Is it really healthier than deep frying?
Yes! The Larinest air fryer uses 85% less oil than traditional deep-frying while still achieving crispy, delicious results. This significantly reduces calories and fat content.
