Settings

The table below will help you to select the basic settings for the ingredients.
Note: Keep in mind that these settings are only for reference. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape as well as brand, we cannot guarantee the best settings for your ingredients.
The Rapid Air Technology instantly reheats the air inside the appliance, so pulling the pot briefly out of the appliance during hot air frying barely affects the cooking.
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, and vice versa.
• Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through cooking optimises the result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
• Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry the ingredients in the appliance within a few minutes after you add the oil.
• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the appliance.
• The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams.
• Use a pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. A pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than a home-made dough.
• Place a baking tin or oven dish in the appliance if you want to bake a cake or quiche or to fry fragile ingredients or filled ingredients.
• You can also use the appliance to reheat the ingredients. To reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 150°C for up to 10 minutes.

You have not set the timer.| Set the required preparation time and switch on the appliance.
The ingredients fried by the appliance are not fully cooked.| The amount of ingredients in the pot is too big.| Put smaller batches of ingredients in the pot. Smaller batches are fried more evenly.
The set temperature is too low.| Set the required temperature (see Settings).
The preparation time is too short.| Set the required preparation time (see Settings).
The ingredients are fried unevenly.| The certain types of ingredients need to be shaken halfway through cooking.| The ingredients that lie on the top of or overlaps with others (e.g. fries) need to be shaken halfway through cooking (see Settings).

The fried snacks are not crispy.

The pot cannot be pushed into the appliance properly.| There are too many ingredients in the pot.| Do not fill beyond the MAX indication.
The pot is not placed correctly.| Put the pot in until you hear a click.
The white smoke comes out of the appliance.| You are preparing greasy ingredients.| When you fry greasy ingredients, a large amount of oil will leak into the pot. The oil produces white smoke and the pot may heat up more than usual. This does not affect the appliance or the cooking result.
The pot still contains grease residues from the previous use.| The white smoke is caused by grease heating up in the pot. Make sure you clean the pot properly after each use.
The fresh fries are fried unevenly.| You did not use the right type of potato.| Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay firm during frying.
---|---|---
You did not rinse the potato strips properly before you fried them.| Rinse the potato strips properly to remove starch from the outside of the strips.
The fresh fries are not crispy.| The crispiness of the fries depends on the amount of oil and water in the fries.| Make sure you dry the potato strips properly before you add the oil.
Cut the potato strips smaller for a crispier result.
Add lightly more oil for a crispier result.
