Note
You may notice a slight burning smell or smoke when using the fryer for the first time, caused by the excess of lubricants from the manufacturing process. This will not affect the fryer safety.

Warning

• Keep in mind that these are just indications. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape and brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for the ingredients that you are using.
• Add approximately 1-2 minutes to the cooking time indicated in the table if you start frying while the device is still cold.

Tips

• Smaller ingredients require shorter preparation time than the larger ones.
• A larger quantity of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time, and a smaller quantity of ingredients only requires a slightly shorter preparation time.
• Stirring small ingredients during the frying process optimises the result and can help preventing unevenly fried ingredients.
• Add some oil for a crispier result.
• Do not use the air fryer to fry greasy food (such as sausages).
• Food that can be cooked in an oven can also be cooked with the air fryer.
• Pre-made dough requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
• You can also use the device to re-heat ingredients.
• To obtain the best results, we advise you to preheat the basket for 4 minutes without food inside.

Time and temperature increase and decrease
To modify the temperature and time of the pre-set functions, press the corresponding increase and decrease icons.

Stirring food
Some ingredients may require stirring during the cooking process. To stir ingredients, remove the basket of the air fryer and shake it. Place it back in the fryer.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

• Clean the fryer after every use.
• Disconnect the air fryer from the power supply and allow it to cool down before cleaning it.
• Do not use metallic tools or abrasive products to clean the basket and rack.
• Use a soft, damp cloth to clean the surface of the fryer.
• Never immerse the fryer in water or other liquids.
• Do not use sponges, powder cleaners or abrasive cleaning products to clean the fryer.

Warning

• Remove the basket to allow the device to cool down more quickly.
