Preheating your Emerald M-AIR-1981 Air Fryer Toaster Oven is a straightforward process. First, plug the appliance into a power source and activate it by pressing the POWER ON/OFF icon. Next, choose your desired cooking program by repeatedly touching the menu icon until your selection appears. Then, fine-tune the temperature and cooking time using the plus and minus icons. When you're ready to preheat, tap the "PREHEAT" icon. The oven will begin preheating. Once the internal temperature reaches 300°F, the display will show "Add Food," signaling that it's ready for your ingredients. Note that the preheat function isn't needed for all cooking modes, such as Toast, Dehydrate, Proof, Defrost, Reheat, and Warm; you can start cooking directly. For specific instructions and cooking times for various foods, always consult the user manual that came with your Emerald M-AIR-1981 Air Fryer Toaster Oven.
