OPERATION
Using the air fryer
Step 1
- Place the air fryer on a flat, stable, and heat-resistant surface, away from any possible splashing water or heat source.
- Properly place the basket inside the air fryer. Make sure it fits to ensure proper operation.
- Do not cover the appliance with any object to avoid hindering proper airflow.
- Connect the power cable to an earthed plug socket.
- Remove the basket from the air fryer with extreme care.
- Put the ingredients in the basket.
- Tip: to ensure perfect results, it is recommended that you avoid overcrowding the basket with food, as it will not cook evenly.
- Tip: never exceed the MAX mark on the basket or the quantity indicated in the table (see ‘Table of default menus’ in this section) to ensure good results.
- Use the control panel as follows:
- Icon 1 – Power touch icon
- Once the basket and rack are securely in place in the fryer, the power icon will light up. Touching the Power icon will set the temperature to 185 °C and the cooking time to 15 minutes by default. Touching the Power icon again will start the cooking process. At the start of the process, the fan and heating indicator lights flash to indicate that the fan and the heating element are in operation. During the cooking process, the heating indicator light will stop flashing as soon as the appliance reaches the set temperature and will start flashing again if the temperature drops below the set range.
- Icon 2 – Default Menu Selection touch icon
- Use this icon to choose from 9 of the most popular food options. Repeatedly touch this icon to select the desired menu. Once the desired option is, cooking time and temperature values will be set by default (see “Table of default menus” in this section). Time and temperature values can be manually adjusted by touching the Time/Temperature Increase/Decrease icons.
- Icons 3 and 4 – Time Increase/Decrease touch icons
- Touch these icons to increase and/or decrease the time from 1 to 60 minutes.
- Icons 5 and 6 – Temperature Increase/Decrease touch icons
- Touch these icons to increase and/or decrease the temperature from 80 to 200 °C.
- Icon 7 – Delay Start touch icon
- After setting the temperature, time, and/or selecting the desired default menu, touch this icon and adjust the start delay time by touching the Time Increase/Decrease icons. You can delay the cooking between 30 minutes and 24 hours in 30-minute and 1-hour intervals from 10 a.m. onwards.
- 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.
- 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). Put the basket back in the air fryer.
- Warning:
- Be very careful when shaking the basket, as it contains hot food.
- Do not use metal utensils, as they could damage the inner coating of the basket.
- When you hear the acoustic signal, the set cooking time will have 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.
- To remove food, e.g., chips, 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 the operation to
avoid burns. Hold the basket only by the handle.
Step 2
Table of default menus
Note:
As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape, and brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for the ingredients that you are using. If necessary, change the times and/or temperature values to adjust the cooking to the type of ingredient.
Tips for cooking
- Smaller ingredients require a shorter preparation time than larger ones.
- 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.
- Shaking smaller food midway through the cooking process optimizes the end result and prevents uneven cooking.
- Add some oil to the fresh potatoes for a crispier result. Cook the food in the air fryer just after adding oil to it.
- Do not cook extremely fatty ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
- Oven-ready food can also be cooked in the air fryer.
- Pre-made dough requires a shorter preparation time. Pre-made dough requires a shorter preparation time than homemade dough.
- 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.
- You can also use the air fryer to reheat food.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
- Clean the appliance after every use.
- The basket and rack have a non-stick coating. Do not use metal utensils or abrasive products to clean the basket and/or rack, as this may damage their non-stick surface.
- Unplug the appliance and allow it to cool down before cleaning.
- Note: remove the basket to let the appliance cool down more quickly.
- Clean the interior and the exterior of the appliance with a damp cloth.
- Clean the basket and rack thoroughly with hot water, washing-up liquid, and a non-abrasive sponge. The use of a degreasing liquid is recommended to remove any remains.
- Tip: if there is dirt stuck to the rack or basket, fill the basket drawer with hot water and a little dishwashing liquid and soak the basket and rack for about 10 minutes.
- Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge.
- Clean the heating element with a soft brush to remove any food residue.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem | Possible causes | Possible Solution |
---|---|---|
The air fryer does not work | The appliance is not plugged in. | Plug the |
appliance into an earthed wall socket.
The ingredients fried with the air fryer are not done.| The food is too big.|
Put smaller batches of food in the basket. Food cooks faster if small.
The temperature used is too low.| Increase the cooking temperature (see the
“Operation” section).
The preparation time is too short.| Increase the cooking time (see the
‘Operation’ section).
The ingredients are cooked unevenly in the air fryer.| Some types of food need
to be shaken during the cooking process.| Ingredients that lie on top of or
across each other (e.g., chips) need to be shaken halfway through the
preparation time. See the ‘Operation’ section.
---|---|---
Fried foods are not crispy when they are removed from the air fryer.| You used
a type of food that is meant to be prepared in a
traditional deep fryer.
| Cook oven food or brush food with a little oil for crispier results.
The basket does not slide into the appliance properly.| There are too many
ingredients in the basket.| Do not fill the basket beyond the max. indication.
The grille is incorrectly placed inside the basket.| Push the grille downwards
into the basket until you hear a click sound.
White smoke comes out of the appliance.| You are preparing greasy
ingredients.| When cooking fatty foods in the air fryer, a large amount of oil
seeps into the basket. Oil produces white smoke. This does not affect the
appliance or the result.
The basket still contains grease residue from previous use.| The white smoke
is due to the fat heating up in the basket. Make sure you clean the appliance
properly after each use.
Chips are unevenly fried.| You did not use the right potato type.| Use fresh
potatoes and make sure they stay put during frying. Use potatoes of the types
suggested.
You did not rinse the potato sticks properly before you fried them.| Rinse the
potatoes well in water for 3 minutes to remove the starch and dry thoroughly
afterward.
Chips are not crispy when they come out of the air fryer.| The right kind of
potato is not being used.| Make sure you dry the potato sticks properly before
adding the oil.
---|---|---
Cut the potato sticks into smaller pieces for crispier results.
Add a little bit more oil for a crispier result.
