Air frying

Caution

• This is an Airfryer that works on hot air. Do not fill the pan with oil, frying fat, or any other liquid.
• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. Handle the hot pan with oven-safe gloves.
• This appliance is for household use only.
• This appliance may produce some smoke when you use it for the first time. This is normal.
• Preheating the appliance is not necessary.

1. Put the plug in the wall outlet.
2. Remove the pan with the basket from the appliance by pulling the handle.
3. Put the ingredients in the basket.

Note

• The Airfryer can prepare a large range of ingredients. Consult the ‘Food table’ for the right quantities and approximate cooking times.
• Do not exceed the amount indicated in the ‘Food table’ section or overfill the basket beyond the ‘MAX’ indication as this could affect the quality of the end result.
• If you want to prepare different ingredients at the same time, make sure you check the suggested cooking time required for the different ingredients before you start to cook them simultaneously.

1. Put the pan with the basket back into the Airfryer.
   Caution

   • Never use the pan without the basket in it.
   • Do not touch the pan or the basket during and for some time after use, as they get very hot.

2. Turn the temperature knob to the required temperature.

1. Turn the timer knob to the required cooking time to switch on the appliance.

Note:  Refer to the food table with basic cooking settings for different types of food.
Tip: During cooking, if you need to change the cooking temperature or time, turn the control knobs to the required setting.

Note

• Some ingredients require shaking or turning halfway through the cooking time (see ‘Food table’). To shake the ingredients, pull out the pan with the basket, place it on a heat-resistant worktop, slide the lid and press the basket release button to remove the basket and shake the basket over the sink. Then put the basket into the pan, and slide them back into the appliance.
• If you set the timer to half of the cooking time and you hear the timer bell it is time to shake or turn the ingredients. Be sure to reset the timer to the remaining cooking time.

1. When you hear the timer bell, the cooking time has elapsed.
   Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do this, turn the timer knob to 0 (counterclockwise); this requires some more force than turning clockwise.

2. Pull out the pan and check if the ingredients are ready.
   Caution: The Airfryer pan is hot after the cooking process. Always place it on a heat-resistant work top (eg. trivet, etc.) when you remove the pan from the device.

Note: If the ingredients are not ready yet, simply slide the pan back into the Airfryer by the handle and add a few extra minutes.

To remove small ingredients (e.g. fries), lift the basket out of the pan by sliding the lid first, and then pressing the basket release button.

Caution: After the cooking process, the pan, the basket, the interior housing, and the ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the Airfryer, steam may escape from the pan.

Empty the basket contents into a bowl or onto a plate. Always remove the basket from the pan to empty the contents as hot oil may be in the bottom of the pan.

Note

• To remove large or fragile ingredients, use a pair of tongs to lift out the ingredients.
• Excess oil or rendered fat from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the pan.
• Depending on the type of ingredients cooking, you may want to carefully pour off any excess oil or rendered fat from the pan after each batch or before shaking or replacing the basket in the pan. Place the basket on a heat-resistant surface. Wear oven-safe gloves to pour off excess oil or rendered fat. Return the basket to the pan.

When a batch of ingredients is ready, the Airfryer is instantly ready for preparing another batch.

Note:  Repeat steps 3 to 10 if you want to prepare another batch.

Making home-made fries

To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:

• Choose a potato variety suitable for making fries, e.g. fresh, (slightly) floury potatoes.
• It is best to air fry the fries in portions of up to 500 g/18 oz for an even result. Larger fries tend to be less crispy than smaller fries.

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks (1 x 1 cm/0.4 x 0.4 in thick).

2. Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes.

3. Empty the bowl and dry the potato sticks with a dish towel or paper towel.

4. Pour one tablespoon of cooking oil into the bowl, put the sticks in the bowl, and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.

5. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a slotted kitchen utensil so excess oil remains in the bowl.
   Note: Do not tilt the bowl to pour all the sticks into the basket at once to prevent excess oil from going into the pan.

6. Put the sticks into the basket.

7. Fry the potato sticks and shake the basket 2-3 times during cooking.

Cleaning

Warning

• Let the basket, the pan, and the inside of the appliance cool down completely before you start cleaning.
  

• The pan, the basket, and the inside of the appliance have a non-stick coating. Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials as this may damage the non-stick coating.

Clean the appliance after every use. Remove oil and fat from the bottom of the pan after every use.

1. Turn the timer knob to 0, remove the plug from the wall outlet and let the appliance cool down.
   Tip: Remove the pan and the basket to let the Airfryer cool down more quickly.

2. Dispose of rendered fat or oil from the bottom of the pan.

3. Clean the pan and the basket in the dishwasher. You can also clean them with hot water, dishwashing liquid, and a non-abrasive sponge (see Cleaning table).
   Note: Put the pan with the rubber plug in the dishwasher. Do not remove the rubber plug before cleaning.
   Tip

   • If food residues are stuck to the pan or the basket, you can soak them in hot water and dishwashing liquid for 10–15 minutes. Soaking loosens the food residues and makes it easier to remove. Make sure you use a dishwashing liquid that can dissolve oil and grease. If there are grease stains on the pan or the basket and you have not been able to remove them with hot water and dishwashing liquid, use a liquid degreaser.
   • If necessary, food residues stuck to the heating element can be removed with a soft to medium bristle brush. Do not use a steel wire brush or a hard bristle brush, as this might damage the coating on the heating element.

4. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.

5. Clean the heating element with a cleaning brush to remove any food residues.

Cleaning table

• Always make sure that the removable parts of the Airfryer are fixed before you carry and/or store it.

My homemade fries do not turn out as I expected.| You did not use the right potato type.| To get the best results, use fresh floury potatoes. If you need to store the potatoes, do not store them in a cold environment like in a fridge. Choose potatoes whose package states that they are suitable for frying.
 | The amount of ingredients in the basket is too big.| Follow the instructions on page 14 in this user manual to prepare homemade fries.
 | Certain types of ingredients need to be shaken halfway through the cooking time.| Follow the instructions on page 14 in this user manual to prepare homemade fries.

 | Several appliances are connected to one outlet.| The Airfryer has a high wattage. Try a different outlet and check the fuses.
Problem| Possible cause| Solution
---|---|---
I see some peeling-off spots inside my Airfryer.| Some small spots can appear inside the pan of the Airfryer due to the incidental touching or scratching of the coating (e.g. during cleaning with harsh cleaning tools and/or while inserting the basket).| You can prevent damage by lowering the basket into the pan properly. If you insert the basket at an angle, its side may knock against the wall of the pan, causing small pieces of coating to chip off. If this occurs, please be informed that this is not harmful as all materials used are food-safe.
White smoke comes out of the appliance.| You are cooking fatty ingredients.| Carefully pour off any excess oil or fat from the pan and then continue cooking.
 | The pan still contains greasy residues from previous use.| White smoke is caused by greasy residues heating up in the pan. Always clean the pan and the basket thoroughly after every use.
 | Breading or coating did not adhere properly to the food.| Tiny pieces of airborne breading can cause white smoke. Firmly press breading or coating to food to ensure it sticks.
 | Marinade, liquid, or meat juices are splattering in the rendered fat or grease.| Pat food dry before placing it in the basket.
