HOW TO USE

The air fryer can prepare a wide variety of foods. You can see recipes, indicative temperatures and cooking times below.

HOT AIR FRYING

1. Connect the plug to a grounded electrical outlet. Make sure that the appliance only plugs into a properly grounded and properly installed socket.

2. Carefully remove the fryer basket from the appliance. (fig.l)

3. Place the materials inside the fryer basket.
   NOTE : Never put any amount of food that exceeds the maximum level indicated inside the fryer basket.

4. Insert the fryer basket back into the appliance. (fig.2) CAUTION:

5. Never use the air fryer without the fryer basket inside.

6. Do not touch the fryer basket during use or for a short time after use, as it develops a high temperature. Hold the fryer basket by the cool touch handle only.

7. Turn the temperature control switch to the required temperature depending on the quantity and type of material to be used. To determine the correct temperature, refer to the “TIME & TEMPERATURE SETTINGS” section listed below or refer to the quick frying instructions on the top of the appliance.

8. Determine the required material preparation time by turning the timer to the appropriate setting (refer to “TIME & TEMPERATURE SETTINGS” or refer to the quick frying instructions on the top of the appliance). To switch on the appliance, turn the timer to the required standby time.
   Ideally, preheat the appliance for at least 3 minutes, without any material inside. To warm up, turn the timer to more than 3 minutes and wait for the indicator light to go out. Then fill the fryer basket and turn the timer to the required preparation time. If you use the appliance without preheating, add at least 3 minutes to the preparation time. The timer starts counting down the preparation time you set. During the hot air frying process, the temperature light indicator turns on and off at different intervals. This indicates that the heating element is switched on and off to maintain the set temperature.
   NOTE : Excess oil from the ingredients is collected at the bottom of the fryer basket.

9. Some ingredients require shaking or turning halfway through the cooking time ( consult the
   “TIME & TEMPERATURE SETTINGS” section). To shake the ingredients, pull the fryer basket out of the appliance by holding it by the handle, and shake it. Then insert the basket back into the appliance.
   TIP : If you set the timer to half of the preparation time, you will hear the timer sound when you need to mix or shake the ingredients. That means that after you have finished mixing/shaking the ingredients, you will need to set the timer again for the remaining half of the preparation time.

10. When you hear the timer sound, the cooking time has elapsed. Pull the basket out of the appliance and place it on an anti-heat surface.
    NOTE : You can stop the cooking process manually. To do this, turn the timer to 0.

11. Make sure the ingredients are cooked properly. If the ingredients are not cooked properly, put the basket back in the appliance and set the timer for a few extra minutes of cooking.

12. To remove the cooked ingredients, remove the basket from the appliance and place it on an anti-heat surface. Then empty the contents of the basket into a serving dish using serving utensils (e.g. a forceps).
    CAUTION:

13. Never touch the fryer basket as soon as cooking is over as it develops high temperatures. Hold the fryer basket by its handle only.

14. Never turn the fryer basket over, as the excess oil that has accumulated at the bottom will drip onto your materials.

15. After frying with hot air, the fryer basket and ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of materials you have placed, the tub may emit steam.

16. When a batch of ingredients is ready, the air fryer is instantly ready for preparing another batch.

AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF
The air fryer is equipped with a timer. When the timer counts down to 0, an audible alarm sounds and the appliance switches off automatically. To turn off the appliance manually, turn the timer knob to the left to 0.

TIME & TEMPERATURE SETTINGS
The following table helps you find more information about preset cooking programs as well as the basic settings for the ingredients you want to cook in case you do not want to choose one of the preset programs.

NOTE : The following settings are indicated. As food and cooking ingredients vary in origin, size, shape and brand, we cannot guarantee the ideal settings for the food you want to cook. Because the hot air technology used by the appliance rapidly reheats the air inside the appliance

• Larger materials require a slightly longer preparation time, while smaller quantities require slightly less preparation time.
• Mixing/shaking the smaller ingredients in the middle of the preparation time optimizes the final result and ensures uniform frying of all the ingredients.
• Smear the fresh potatoes with a little oil before placing them in the air fryer, to achieve a crunchy result.
• Do not place highly greasy ingredients, such as sausages, in the hot fryer.
• Snacks that can be baked in the oven can also be made using the air fryer.
• If you want to make crispy French fries, the ideal amount is 400 grams.
• Use ready-made dough to make stuffed snacks, quickly and easily. Ready-made dough usually requires less preparation time than homemade dough.
• You can also use the air fryer to reheat your food. Set the temperature to 150°C for about 10 minutes.

TROUBLESHOOTING

Connect the plug to a grounded electrical outlet.

Timer is not set

| Turn the timer to the required preparation time to turn on the device.
The ingredients placed were not fried properly.| The amount of materials you have placed in the basket is too large.| Place smaller batches of ingredients in the cart. Smaller batches are fried better and more evenly.

The set temperature is too low.

|

Turn the temperature switch to the required temperature setting (refer to “TIME & TEMPERATURE SETTINGS”).

Preparation time is too short.| Turn the timer to the required preparation time (refer to the section “TIME & TEMPERATURE SETTINGS”).

The ingredients I placed in the air fryer were not fried evenly.

|

Some types of food and ingredients need to be mixed about halfway through the preparation time.

|

Overlapping ingredients (e.g. French fries) need to be mixed about halfway through the preparation time (see “TIME & TEMPERATURE SETTINGS”).

Fried snacks are not crunchy when they come out of the fryer.| You used a type of snack intended for preparation in a traditional fryer.| Use snacks ready for the oven or spread a little oil on the snacks for a crispier result.
I cannot insert the bucket properly into the appliance.| The amount of materials you have placed in the basket exceeds the maximum allowed amount.|

Do not fill the basket above the MAX mark inside of it.

The grill has not been placed correctly in the basket.

|

Push the grill down into the basket until it is in the correct position.

White smoke comes out of the appliance.

|

The ingredients you prepare are fatty.

|

When frying greasy ingredients in the fryer, a large amount of oil leaks into the basket. The oil produces white smoke and the tub may become hotter than usual. This, however, does not affect the appliance or the end result.

__**23**

Make sure you clean the bin properly after each use.
Fresh French fries are not fried evenly.| You did not use the correct type of potato.| Use fresh potatoes and make sure they remain firm during frying.

You did not soak the potatoes properly with water before frying them.

|

Soak the potatoes well in a bowl, take them out and dry them with kitchen paper.

Fresh French fries are not crispy.| The crispness of French fries depends on the amount of oil and water they have.| Make sure the potatoes are dry before adding the oil.
Cut the potatoes thinner for a crispier result.
Add a little more oil for a crispier result.
