COOKING TIPS

• Preheating (PREHEAT) the air fryer before adding food will generally ensure the best cooking results.
• Shake or turn the food (TURN REMINDER) halfway through the cooking time to achieve even browning. Turn the food usually requires smaller foods that are stacked, such as chips or nuggets.
• A few minutes before the end of the cooking time, check whether the food is sufficiently cooked and if necessary, cook it longer.
• Make sure the meat has reached a safe cooking temperature.
• An air fryer works much like a toaster oven; follow the preparation instructions on the package or in the oven recipe.
• Smaller pieces of food usually require slightly less cooking time than larger pieces.
• When cooking multiple batches in a row, preheat only the first batch.
• Soak fresh potato chips in water for 15 minutes to remove starch before frying. Then pat the fries dry and mix with 1 tablespoon of oil to make them crispier.
• To get a crispier surface, we recommend spraying/mixing the food with classic table oil.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

NEVER immerse the cable, plug or appliance in water or any other liquid.

• Clean the appliance after each use.
• Before cleaning, unplug the appliance and let it cool down completely.
• We recommend cleaning the appliance immediately after it cools down, before food residues dry out.
• Wipe the base of the appliance and the exterior with a damp cloth.
• Removable parts that are intended for contact with food can be washed in a dishwasher, but we still recommend hand washing for longer protection (durability) of the non-stick surface.
• To maintain the non-stick layer as long as possible, do not use sharp or metal objects, abrasive cleaning materials or rough sponges and wire brushes.
• Wash these parts under warm running water with the addition of neutral kitchen detergent and a soft sponge. Then rinse them with clean water, dry them properly and put them back in their place.
• If residue sticks to the bottom of the removable basket, fill it with hot soapy water and let it soak in, then wash it with a soft sponge.

TROUBLESHOOTING

mains.
Insert the outer container completely into the appliance.
The food is not fully cooked.| Place smaller portions of food in the removable basket. If the basket is too full, the food may be undercooked.
Increase the temperature or cooking time.
The food is not evenly cooked.| Ingredients that are stacked on top of each other or close to each other need to be shaken or turned during cooking.
The food is not crispy after frying.| Spraying food with a small amount of oil can increase crispness.
The fries were not cooked well.| Add a small amount of oil, approx. 15 ml. When making raw potato chips, soak uncooked chips in water for 15 minutes to remove starch before frying. Dry them before adding a small amount of oil.
Cut the uncooked chips into strips of the following dimensions 0,5 cm x 7 cm.
White smoke comes out of the appliance.| When using for the first time, the appliance may produce white smoke.

It’s alright.

Make sure the baskets and the inside of the appliance are properly cleaned and free of grease.
Cooking fatty foods will cause oil to leak into the outer container. This oil will produce white smoke and the container may be hotter than usual. This is normal and should not affect cooking.

Handle the container with care.
