This is an oil-free fryer that works on hot air, do not fill the basket with oil or frying fat.

Note: When your air fryer is heated for the first time, it may emit slight smoke or odour. This is normal with many brand-new appliances. This does not affect the safety of your appliance.

Preparing for use

1. Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal, and even surface. Do not place the appliance on a non-heat-resistant surface.
2. Place the grill insert in the basket. Do not fill the basket with oil or any other liquid. Do not put anything on top of the appliance, the airflow will be disrupted and affect the hot air frying result.

USING THE APPLIANCE

1. Connect the plug to an earthed wall socket.

2. Carefully pull the basket out of the air fryer.

3. Put the ingredients in the basket.

4. Slide the basket back into the air fryer. Never use the basket without the grill insert in it.
   Caution: Do not touch the basket during and after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold the basket by the handle.

5. Determine the required preparation time for the ingredient (see section ‘Settings’ in this manual).

6. Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time (see section “Settings” in this manual). To shake the ingredients, pull the basket out of the appliance by the handle and shake it. Then slide it back into the air fryer.
   Tip: If you set the timer to half the preparation time, you hear the timer buzzer when you need to shake the ingredients. However, this means that you must set the timer again for the remaining preparation time after shaking.

7. When you hear the timer buzzer, the set preparation time has elapsed. Pull the basket out of the appliance.

8. Check if the food is ready. If it isn’t ready yet, simply slide the basket back into the appliance and set the timer to a few extra minutes.

9. To remove ingredients (e.g. fries), pull the basket out of the air fryer and place it on a trivet. Do not turn the basket upside down, as any excess oil that has collected on the bottom will leak onto the ingredients. The basket and the food are hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the air fryer, steam may escape from the cooking basket.

10. Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate.

11. When a batch of ingredients is ready, the air fryer is instantly ready to cook another batch.

CONTROL PANEL INSTRUCTIONS

Power Key
When Power Key is pressed once, the display illuminates and shows the default cooking time of the first pre-set menu option. The icon indicating the menu option will flash.

Function Key
Press the Function Key to switch between the pre-programmed menu options (going from left to right). After selecting the desired cooking mode press start or wait 5 seconds for the automatic start.

Temperature/Timer Key
The temperature and time can be adjusted using the Temperature/Timer key according to personal preferences and tastes. The corresponding – and + keys can be used to increase/decrease the temperature and time. The temperature increases or decreases by 5°C and the time increases or decreases by 1 minute.

Delay Time Key
To delay air frying, simply press the Delay Time key. You can customize the delay time for up to 24 hours. You can press the Start/Cancel key to cancel the operation at any time. The machine will initiate cooling fans for 30 seconds. Once cooking is complete or if no functions are selected within 1 minute, the air fryer will automatically enter standby mode. To exit standby mode, simply press the Start/Cancel key.

SETTINGS

The settings table will help you select the best cooking option for the ingredients.

Note: Keep in mind that these settings are an indication only. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape as well as brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for your ingredients. Do not pull out the basket to shake/check on food for an extended period of time. Try to be as brief as possible to not disturb the cooking process.

Tips

• Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than larger ingredients.
• A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer cooking time, and a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a slightly shorter cooking time.
• Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimizes the result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
• Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the air fryer within a few minutes after you added the oil.
• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer.
• Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made dough also requires a shorter cooking time than homemade dough.
• Place a baking tin or oven dish in the air fryer basket if you want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile ingredients or filled ingredients.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool down completely before handling, cleaning or storing. Wash all accessories in warm soapy water after every use.

Note: the basket and the grill insert are dishwasher safe. The inside of the air fryer can be cleaned with hot water, a mild detergent and a non- abrasive sponge. Wipe the outer housing body with a soft, damp cloth. Do not use detergents or cleaners on the outside of the appliance. If necessary, remove the excess food residue on the upper screen with a soft brush.

Tip: If food is stuck to the grill insert or the bottom of the basket, fill the basket with hot water and some washing-up liquid. Put the grill insert in the basket and let them soak for approximately 10 minutes.

STORING
Allow the appliance to cool down completely before storing it. Store the appliance in an upright position in a dry location. Do not place any heavy items on top of the appliance during storage as this may result in possible damage to the appliance.

PROPER DISPOSAL
Once the appliance reaches the end of its life cycle, do not throw it away. Hand it in at an official recycling collection point.
