Tips

• A smaller amount of food requires a slightly shorter preparation time, a larger amount of food needs a slightly longer preparation time.
• It is recommended not to fill the fry pot of the air fryer beyond ¾ of its capacity. The maximum amount of ingredients that can be prepared depends on the kind of food you want to prepare.
• Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimizes the end result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
• Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
• Place a baking tin or oven dish in the air fryer pot if you want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile ingredients or filled ingredients
• You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 150℃ for up to 10 minutes.
• It is suggested to wait some minutes to cool down the machine when you need to start another cooking after the 1st cooking. Keep heating not more than 1 hour.
• If you use oven-ready snacks, do not add oil because they are usually pre-fried and become golden brown and crispy when prepared in the air fryer.
• If you use oven-ready snacks and they do not become crispy and stay pale, please check the following
  • a. The amount of ingredients: Put smaller batches of ingredients in the fry pot. Cover the bottom of the fry pot with just one layer. Smaller batches are fried more evenly.
  • b. The preparation time: If you have not preheated the appliance before you put in the snacks, make sure you add 3 minutes extra to the preparation time when you set the timer.
  • c. Most snacks need the preparation time indicated for the oven to become fully cooked.
  • d. If your croquettes or snacks burst when you prepare them in the air fryer, choose a shorter preparation time.

CLEANING

Warning: Let the fry pot, rack and the inside of the appliance cool down completely before you start cleaning. The pot and the rack are with non-stick coating. Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean them, as this may damage the coating.

Clean the appliance after every use. Remove oil and fat from the bottom of the fry pot after every use to prevent smoke.

1. Switch off the machine, remove the plug from the wall socket and let the appliance cool down for 15 minutes.
   Tip: Remove the fry pot to let the air fryer cool down more quickly.

2. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.

3. Clean the fry pot and rack with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a non-abrasive sponge.
   Note: The fry pot and rack are dishwasher-proof.
   Tip: If food residues are stuck to the fry pot or rack, you can soak them in hot water with washingup liquid for 10 to 15 minutes. Soaking will loosen the food residues and will make it easier to remove them. The quality of your washing-up liquid determines how easy it is to remove food residues and grease. Make sure you use a washing-up liquid that can dissolve oil and grease. If there are grease stains on the fry pot or rack and you have not been able to remove them with hot water and washing-up liquid, use a liquid degreaser.
   Tip: You can use a degreasing liquid to remove any remaining dirt.

4. Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge.
   Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.

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.
