  And with the temperature controller set the desired temperature. After the time has expired, you will hear a beep. The appliance will turn off automatically.

Before the First Use

• There is a protective layer on the heating element. To remove this, operate the appliance for approx. 15 minutes without contents. Slight smoke and odour development is normal during this process. Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation.

Instructions for Use

• This appliance is intended for the preparation of solid food. Do not prepare soups or other liquid foods in it.
• A safety switch prevents the appliance from being used without a deep-frying container.
• For best results, do not fill the frying container more than 1cm below the rim. Never overfill the frying container so that the food does not touch the heating element.
• Never fill the deep-frying container with oil or other liquids. To achieve a crispy result, you can brush the food with a little oil.
• Do not prepare very fatty foods (e.g. sausages) with the appliance.
• All foods that are suitable for the oven can be prepared in the appliance.
• The sieve insert is used to ensure that the accumulated fat settles at the bottom of the frying container. This makes the food crispier.
• When baking cakes, bread, etc., keep in mind that the dough expands. It must not come into contact with the heating element.
• When baking bread, etc., you can remove the sieve insert.
• Food that lies on top of each other during cooking must be shaken halfway through the cooking time. This optimises the result and prevents uneven cooking.
• Water home-made potato products for at least 30 minutes after cutting to reduce potato starch. Then dry the potato pieces well with kitchen paper.
• The cooking time depends on various factors: Size, texture, amount of food and set temperature.
• If you do not preheat the hot air fryer, add 2 minutes to the cooking time.
• Fry steaks /larger quantities of meat hot in a pan before cooking in the hot air fryer. Time and temperature depend on the desired cooking level.
