Range & Wall Oven - How to Use No Preheat Air Fry

No Preheat Air Fry is a special cooking mode that is designed to produce foods with a crispier exterior than traditional oven cooking. The Air Fry mode optimizes heating from the Bake, Broil, and Convection Fan elements to achieve the crispy fried food results you want without the need of hot oil.For many Smart ranges and wall ovens, the Air Fry mode can be added to your cooking options once you connect to your WiFi and our SmartHQ™ app and receive the free Air Fry upgrade. When connected, you can get Air Fry using the SmartHQ™ app or directly through the appliance control panel.
