PREPARING FOR USE

USING THE APPLIANCE
The air fryer can prepare an extensive range of food. 

1. Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal, and even surface. Do not place the appliance on a non-heat-resistant surface.
2. Place the basket in the pot.
3. Do not fill the pot with oil or any other liquid.
4. Do not put anything on top of the appliance; the airflow will be disrupted and affects the hot air frying result.

Connect the mains plug into an earthed wall socket.

Carefully pull the pot out of the hot air fryer.

Put the food in the basket.

Slide the pot back into the hot air fryer. Noting to carefully align with the guides in the body of the fryer.

Caution: Do not touch the pot during and sometime after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold the pot by the handle.  Determine the required preparation time for the ingredients (see section ‘Settings’ in this chapter).  Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time (see section “Settings” in this chapter).  To shake the ingredients, pull the pot out by the handle, and shake it. Then slide the pot back into the air fryer. Do not press the button on the handle during shaking.
Tip: To reduce the weight, you can remove the basket from the pot and shake the basket only. To do so, pull the pot out of the appliance, place it on a heat-resistant surface, and press the handle’s button and lift the basket out of the pot.
Tip: If you set the timer, you hear the timer buzzer when you have to shake the food. However, this means you have to set the timer again for the remaining preparation time after shaking.
When you hear the timer buzz, the set preparation time has elapsed. Pull the pot out of the appliance.
Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do this, set the time to 1. You can adjust temperature or time according to your taste during use. The appliance will keep your settings for about 10 mins after pulling the pot out of the body.

1. If the food is not ready yet, slide the pot back into the appliance and set the timer to a few extra minutes.
2. to remove food (e.g., fries), pull the pot out of the hot air fryer and place it on a heat-resistant surface, and press the basket release button and lift the basket out of the pan.
3. Please do not turn the basket upside down with the pot still attached to it, as any excess oil collected on the bottom of the pot will leak onto the ingredients.
4. The pot and the foods are hot. Depending on the type of food in the air fryer, steam may escape from the pot.

SETTINGS
The table below will help you to select the basic settings for the ingredients.
Note: Keep in mind that these settings are indications. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape, and brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for your ingredients. Because the Rapid Air technology reheats the air inside the appliance instantly, Pulling the pot briefly out of the appliance during hot air frying barely disturbs the process.

TIPS

• Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time than larger ingredients.
• A larger amount of ingredients only requires 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 result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
• Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispier result. Fry your ingredients in the Hot-air fryer within a few minutes after you added the oil.
• Do not prepare overly greasy ingredients such as sausages in the Hot-air fryer.
• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the Hot-air fryer.
• The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams.
• Use the pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. The pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
• Place a baking tin or oven dish in the Hot-air filled basket if you want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile ingredients or filler ingredients
• You can also use the hot air fryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 300°F for up to 10 minutes.

| ****

Certain types of ingredients need to be shaken halfway through the preparation time.

| Ingredients that lie on top of or across each other (e.g. fries) need to be shaken halfway through the preparation time. See section ‘Settings’ in chapter ‘Using the appliance’.
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 snacks or lightly brush some oil onto the snacks for a crispier result.

I cannot slide the pan into the appliance properly.

 | ****

The pot still contains grease residues from previous use.

| White smoke is caused by grease heating up in the pan . make sure you clean the pan properly after each use.
---|---|---

Fresh fries are fried unevenly in the air fryer.

| You did not use the right potato type.| Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay

firm during frying.

You did not rinse the potato sticks properly before you fried them.| ****

Rinse the potato sticks properly to remove starch from the outside of the sticks.

Fresh fries are not crispy when they come out of the air fryer.

| ****

The crispiness of the fries depends on the amount of oil and water in the fries.

| Make sure you dry the potato sticks

properly before you add the oil.

Cut the potato sticks smaller for a crispier result.
Add slightly more oil for a crispier result.
