Useful hints for air-frying

• You can prepare your food using the basic automatic programme settings, or adjust the settings according to your own requirements.

• Note that the cooking times listed are only approximate.
  Depending on the type of food, the cooking times and temperatures may have to be adjusted.

• With larger quantities, the cooking time increases. We recommend frequent turning of the food.
  Tip!
  When preparing frozen pizza, the pizza must be turned halfway through to ensure even cooking.

• If the food turns out too dark, try lowering the temperature first, before shortening the cooking times.

•  For nutritious, healthy deep-frying we recommend to use a temperature setting of no higher than 170 °C when deep-frying amylaceous food, i.e. food with a higher-than-average starch content. With the reduced frying temperature, and with an equally reduced amount of food in the frying basket, the build-up of substances detrimental to health is limited to a minimum.

Cleaning and care

• Before cleaning, always unplug the appliance and allow the low fat fryer to cool down thoroughly.
• Caution: To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the outside of the fryer or its power cord with any liquids and do not immerse either of them in water.
• Do not use sharp or abrasive cleaning agents to avoid scratching the housing and the non-stick coating on the frying basket and drip tray.
• Clean all removable inserts in the rinsing water and dry thoroughly or clean in the dishwasher.
• Wipe the housing and the cooking chamber with a damp cloth.

Removing the door door

• The appliance door can be removed for easier cleaning.
• To do this, open the door.
• Slide the slider on the door hinge (OPEN) to the left and remove the door upwards.
• Wipe the door with a damp cloth. Do not immerse in water!
• Replace the dry door.
• The unit cannot be switched on without the door
