TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
3.1. AIR FRYER
3.2. CONTROL PANEL OVERVIEW
3.3. PRESET COOKING MODES
The air fryer has 8 preset cooking modes. The default time and temperature in
the Preset Modes are adjustable. The cooking time and temperature may vary
depending on the size, quantity, type of food, and whether or not the food is
frozen. Adjust the settings as required.
BEFORE FIRST USE
- Remove all packaging materials.
- Check that the air fryer has no visible damage and no parts are missing.
- Before using the appliance for the first time, or before using it after a prolonged storage, clean the appliance and accessories following the instructions in the CLEANING AND CARE section.
PLACEMENT
- Place the appliance on a level, stable, dry, and heat-resistant surface.
IMPORTANT : Use a heat-resistant mat under the appliance to protect the kitchen countertop or tabletop from heat damage. Failure to do so may result in a darkening of the countertop or table finish, staining, or permanent blemishes.
OPERATION
- For best results when air frying, we recommend preheating the air fryer for 3 minutes before adding food, if the appliance is cold.
- Always use the airflow tray in the air fryer basket. The tray allows hot air to circulate around the food and excess fats and oils to drip to the bottom of the basket, preventing them from collecting under the food.
- Do not fill the basket to more than ¾ full to ensure consistent cooking and better heat circulation.
- When preparing large quantities of food (for example fries, shrimp, chicken drumsticks or frozen snacks), shake, turn or mix the ingredients in the basket 2 or 3 times for a result homogeneous.
6.1. USING THE AIR FRYER
■ Hot surface! Do not touch hot surfaces. The air fryer basket, heating
element, and metal surfaces of the appliance become hot during use and are
subject to residual heat after use.
Use available handles or knobs. Always wear oven mitts when handling the hot
air fryer basket.
■ Hot steam! Beware of hot steam escaping from the air outlet of the
appliance, or when removing the air fryer basket.
6.2. AIR FRYING GUIDE
6.3. SAFE MINIMUM INTERNAL TEMPERATURE
Use a meat thermometer to make sure that meat, poultry and fish are cooked
thoroughly before consuming. Follow these safe minimum internal temperatures
recommended by the USDA. You can cook food to a higher internal temperature
according to your preference.
6.4. AIR FRYING TIPS
- Cooking oils, such as canola, sunflower, or vegetable oil, work well for air frying.
- Unless foods are pre-packaged and pre-greased, use a little cooking oil (only 1-2 tablespoons) on certain foods to ensure a crisp and golden result.
- For crispier results, always pat dry foods with kitchen paper before adding oil and cooking. Rub, brush, or spray cooking oil evenly onto foods.
- Cut foods into smaller pieces to create more surface area for crisping.
- When cooking meats, place them in a single layer in the air fryer basket to allow even browning and ensure the pieces can be cooked through.
- To make crispy homemade fries or potato wedges, soak freshly peeled and cut potatoes in water for 30 minutes. Pat dry with kitchen paper, and then rub with 1 tablespoon of cooking oil before air frying.
- Do not prepare extremely fatty foods, such as sausages, in the air fryer.
- Use a baking pan in the air fryer basket to bake a cake or quiche, or to air fry delicate or filled ingredients.
- You can use store-bought dough to prepare filled snacks, such as calzones, quickly and easily. Foods made with store-bought dough requires less preparation time than homemade dough.
- The air fryer can be used to reheat food. Set the temperature to 150 °C for approximately 10 minutes.
