Before using for the first time

Before using the appliance for the first time, remove any remaining packaging materials and stickers.
Heat the appliance for 15 minutes to 200 °C without any food. This will lessen the inherent smell of the appliance (see Using the manual temperature / time selection).
Ensure adequate ventilation by opening windows or balcony doors.

Useful hints for frying

You can prepare your food using the basic automatic programme settings, or adjust the settings according to the following cooking times.
Note that these are only approximate times.
Depending on the type of food, the cooking times and temperatures may have to be adjusted. If the food turns out too dark, try lowering the temperature first, before shortening the cooking times.
For nutritious, healthy deep-frying we recommend to use a temperature setting of no higher than 170 °C when deepfrying amylaceous food, i.e. food with a higher-than-average starch content.
With the reduced frying temperature, and with an equally reduced amount of food in the frying basket, the build-up of substances detrimental to health is limited to a minimum.
There is a wide range of recipe ideas for your fryer
