INTRODUCTION

Congratulations on your new purchase and thank you for supporting us.
Your new air fryer allows you to prepare your favorite ingredients and snacks in a healthier way. It uses hot air in combination with high-speed air circulation (Rapid Air) and an upper grill to prepare a variety of tasty dishes with ease. Your ingredients are heated from all sides at once, and often there is no need to add any oil at all. With the additional baking tray, you can now make food like cakes and quiches, and cook delicate dishes in a more convenient way.

USING THE APPLIANCE

BEFORE FIRST USE

1. Remove all packaging material.
2. Remove any stickers or labels from the appliance.
3. Thoroughly clean the frying pan and tray with hot water, detergent and non-abrasive sponge. Wipe the inside and outside with a damp cloth.

WARNING
Never pour oil or fat into the pan. This appliance uses hot air to fry.

PREPARING FOR USE

1. Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal and level surface.
2. Do not place the appliance on non-heat-resistant surfaces.
3. Ensure the baking tray is correctly inserted into the pan.
4. Plug the included power cord into the back of the appliance.
5. Do not put anything on top of the appliance as this can disrupt the airflow, reducing performance and potentially damaging the unit

USING THE APPLIANCE
The air fryer can prepare a large range of ingredients.

1. Insert the power plug into an earthed wall socket.

2. Carefully pull the pan out of the air fryer.

3. Put your ingredients in the pan.
   Caution: never use the pan without the baking tray installed.

4. Slide the pan back into the air fryer.
   Caution: Do not touch the pan or tray during and for some time after use, as they get very hot. Only hold the pan by the handle.

5. Turn the temperature control knob to the required temperature. See the settings guide included to determine the right temperature.

6. Determine the required preparation time for the ingredient. Again, see the settings guide.

7. To switch on the appliance, turn the timer knob to the required time.
   Add 3 minutes to the time when the appliance is cold.
   Operational Notes:

   • The heating light comes on until the required temperature is achieved.
   • During the hot air frying process, the heating light comes on and goes out periodically. This indicates that the heating element is turning on and off to maintain the set temperature.
   • Excess oil from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the pan.

8. Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time. To shake the ingredients, pull the pan out of the appliance by the handle and – without removing the tray from the pan-shake the contents using the handle. Finally, slide the pan back into the air fryer to resume.

9. When you hear the bell, the set time has elapsed. Pull the pan out of the appliance and place it on a heat-resistant surface.
   Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do this, turn the temperature control knob to 0.

10. Check if the ingredients are ready. If the ingredients are not ready yet, simply slide the pan back into the appliance and set the timer to a few extra minutes. After air frying, the pan and the ingredients will be hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the air fryer, steam may escape from the pan.
    Tip: Use tongs, a serving spoon, or similar to aid the removal of fragile or large amounts of ingredients.

11. You don’t need to wait to use the air fryer again straight after cooking a set of ingredients. There maybe are excessive amount of oil or remnants in the pan after several cycles, or certain types of food, which you may want to remove before continuing to fry. In such a case, wait for the appliance to cool down and follow the correct procedure outlined in the “Cleaning” section.

AUTOMATIC SWITCH-OFF
This appliance is equipped with a timer. When the timer has counted down to 0, the appliance produces a bell sound and switches off automatically. To switch off the appliance manually, turn the timer knob anticlockwise to 0. The Air Fryer will automatically Pause if the Pan is removed during the cooking cycle and then the both lights are going off. Once push back into the fryer, the unit will continue its cooking cycle and then the lights are on.

CLEANING
Clean the appliance after every use to avoid oil and remnants building up.
The pan has a non-stick coating. Do not use metal utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean them, as this may damage the coating.

1. Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the appliance cool down.
   Note: remove the pan and baking tray to let the air fryer cool down more quickly.

2. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
   Note: you should use a dry cloth to clean the light area.

3. Clean the pan and the baking tray with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a non-abrasive sponge. You can use a degreasing agent to remove any remaining deposits.

4. Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge.

5. Clean the heating element with a cleaning brush to remove any food residues.

6. Wait for the unit to dry before operating.

COOKING GUIDE
The table below contains some common settings you may find useful.
Note: Keep in mind that these settings are indications. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape and brand, we cannot guarantee the best settings for your particular ingredients.
Because the Rapid Air technology instantly reheats the air inside the appliance, pulling the pan briefly out of the appliance during hot air frying barely disturbs the process.
When pull out the pan, the unit will stop working and the timer still count down. Adding a little oil while cooking potatoes will make them crispier.

TIPS

1. Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time than larger ingredients.
2. A larger quantity of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time than smaller quantities.
3. Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimizes the end result and can help to prevent unevenly-fried food.
4. Apply some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the air fryer within a few minutes of adding the oil.
5. Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
6. You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients. To do this, set the device to 150 °C for up to 10 minutes.

MAKING HOME-MADE FRIES
For the best results, we advise the use of pre-baked (e.g., frozen) fries as these often have an oily coating. If you would rather make home-made fries, follow the steps below.

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks of your preferred size.

2. Soak the sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, take them out and sit them on kitchen paper to dry.

3. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil into a bowl, put the sticks on top and mix until they are coated with oil.

4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen utensil so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks on the baking tray in the pan.
   Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks into the pan in one go, otherwise you risk excess oi collecting at the bottom.

5. Fry the sticks according to the settings in the table.

STORAGE

1. Unplug the appliance and let it cool down fully.
2. Make sure that all parts are clean and dry.
