OPERATION

Using the air fryer
Step 1

1. Place the air fryer on a flat, stable, and heat-resistant surface, away from any possible splashing water or heat source.

2. Properly place the basket in the air fryer.

3. Do not place any objects on top of the product when in use to avoid interrupting the air flow and affecting the air-frying result.

4. Insert the power cord into an earthed wall socket.

5. Remove the basket from the air fryer with extreme care.

6. Put the ingredients in the basket.
   – Note: never exceed the MAX mark on the basket or the quantity indicated in the table (see “Settings” in this section) to avoid affecting the final result.
   – Tip: to ensure perfect results, it is recommended that you avoid overcrowding the basket with food, as it will not cook evenly.

7. Use the control panel as follows (Fig. 2):
   Plug in the air fryer–the corresponding power light indicator (Icon 1) will come on.
   Icon 1 – Power icon
   Once the basket and rack are securely in place in the fryer, the power icon will light up. Pressing the power icon will set the temperature to 185°C and the cooking time to 15 minutes by default. Pressing the power icon again will start the cooking process. At the start of the process the “Icons 8 and 9” flash to indicate that the fan and the heating element are in operation. During the cooking process, the “Icon 9” will stop flashing as soon as the device reaches the set temperature and will start flashing again when the temperature drops below the set range.
   Icon 2 – Menu-selection icon
   Use this icon to choose from 12 of the most popular food options. Once the desired option has been chosen, the cooking time and temperature values will be set by default. The time and temperature values are manually adjustable.
   Icons 3 and 4 – Time increase/decrease icon
   Press icons “3” and “4” to set the cooking time from 1 to 60 minutes.
   Icons 5 and 6 – Temperature increase/decrease icons
   Press icons “5” and “6” to set the temperature between 80 ºC and 200 ºC.
   Icon 7 – Timer
   Once the basket and rack are securely in place in the fryer, press the “Icon 1 – Power icon”. The control panel will fully light up–press “Icon 7” and select how long you want to delay the frying process for by pressing “Icons 3 and 4”. The time available ranges from 30 minutes to 24 hours in 30-minute intervals and 1 hour from 10 a.m. onwards.

8. Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold; you can also let the appliance preheat for about 4 minutes without any food inside.

9. Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time. To shake or turn the food, remove the basket drawer from the appliance by the handle and shake or turn the ingredients in the basket with a fork (or tongs). Then, put the basket back in the air fryer.
   Caution: be very careful when shaking the basket, as it contains hot food.

10. When you hear the timer acoustic signal, it means the set preparation time has elapsed.
    Remove the basket from the appliance and place it on a heat-resistant surface. Make sure the food is cooked. If the food isn’t cooked enough, slide the basket drawer back into the air fryer and add a few more minutes to the timer.

11. To remove food, e.g., French fries, remove the basket drawer from the air fryer and place it on a heat-resistant surface. Use tongs to remove the ingredients. Be careful not to burn yourself. Do not place the basket upside down to remove the food.

WARNING:
– Do not overfill the basket; respect the quantity indicated in the table to avoid affecting the cooking result.
– Do not touch the basket drawer during or immediately after operation to avoid burns. Hold the basket only by the handle.

Tips for cooking

1. Smaller ingredients require a shorter preparation time than the larger ones.
2. 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.
3. Shaking smaller food midway through the cooking process optimises the end result and prevents uneven cooking.
4. Add some oil to the fresh potatoes for a crispier result. Cook the food in the air fryer just after adding oil to it.
5. Do not cook extremely fatty ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
6. Oven-ready food can also be cooked in the air fryer.
7. The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams.
8. Pre-made dough requires a shorter preparation time. Pre-made dough requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
9. Place a baking pan or baking dish in the air-fryer’s basket if you want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile or stuffed foods.
10. You can also use the air fryer to reheat food.
