This is an oil-free fryer that works on hot air, do not fill the cooking baskets 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.

- 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
-
Put the ingredients in the cooking basket fitted with grill insert. Note: Never use the basket without the grill insert in it.
-
Slide the basket into the air fryer. Use the basket handle to insert the basket. Push closed.
-
Connect the plug to an earthed wall socket. Note: The air fryer will not turn on if the cooking basket is not fully in place in closed position.
-
Determine the required preparation time & temperature for the ingredient.
-
Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time. 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.
Caution: Do not touch the cooking basket during and right after use, as it can get very hot. Only hold the basket by the handle. -
When you hear the timer buzzer, the set preparation time has elapsed. Pull the basket out of the appliance.
-
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.
-
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.
-
Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate.
-
When a batch of ingredients are ready, the air fryer is instantly ready for preparing another batch.

MENU SETTINGS
Keep in mind that the pre-programmed 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 preparation time than larger ingredients.
- A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time, a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a slightly shorter preparation time.
- Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimizes the end 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.
- Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
- Snacks that can be prepared in a oven can also be prepared in the air fryer
- The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams.
- Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Premade dough also requires a shorter preparation time than home-made 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.
- You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 150°C for up to 10 minutes.

TROUBLESHOOTING
| Problem | Possible cause | Solution |
|---|---|---|
| The air fryer does not work. | The appliance is not plugged in. You have not | |
| set the timer. | Plug in the air fryer. Set the timer key | |
| The ingredients are not cooked properly. | The amount of ingredients in the |
basket is too big. The set temperature is too low. The preparation time is too
short.| Put smaller batches of ingredients in the basket. Smaller batches are
fried more evenly. Increase the temperature. Increase cooking time.
The ingredients are fried unevenly in the air fryer.| Certain types of
ingredients need to be shaken halfway through the preparation time.| Shake the
ingredients halfway through the cooking time.
Fried snacks are not crispy when they come out of the air fryer.| You used a
type of snacks meant to be prepared in a traditional deep fryer.| Use oven-
ready snacks or lightly brush some oil onto the snacks for a crispier result.
I cannot slide the basket into the appliance properly.| There are too many
ingredients in the basket. The basket is not placed in the pot correctly.| Do
not fill the basket beyond the MAX indicator. Push the basket into the pot
until you hear a click.
White smoke comes out of the appliance.| You are preparing greasy ingredients.
The pot still contains grease residues from previous use.| Greasy ingredients
cause a large amount of oil to leak into the basket which then produces white
smoke. This doesn’t affect the appliance or the end result. White smoke is
caused by grease heating up in the basket. Make sure you clean the basket
properly after each use.
Fresh fries are fried unevenly in the air fryer or are not crispy| You did not
use the right potato type. You did not rinse the potato sticks properly before
you fried them. The crispiness of the fries depends on the amount of oil and
water in the fries.| Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay firm during
frying. Rinse the potato sticks properly to remove starch from the outside of
the sticks. Make sure you dry the potato sticks properly before you add the
oil. Cut the potato sticks smaller for a crispier result.
