BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove all packaging material.
Remove any stickers or labels from the appliance.
Thoroughly clean the basket and pan with hot soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge.
Note: These parts are also dishwasher safe.
Wipe the inside and outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.

PREPARING FOR USE

Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal and level surface.
Do not place the appliance on non-heat-resistant surfaces.
Place the basket into the pan. It will “lock” into place.
Put the pan into the machine.
Note: the pan MUST be put into the appliance properly, otherwise the appliance will not work!
Plug the appliance into a grounded power outlet.
This is an air fryer that works on hot air. Do not fill the pan with oil or any other liquid.
Do not put anything on top of the appliance.
Do not block the air-inlets on either side of the appliance, this disrupts the airflow and affects the hot air frying results.

SECURA ELECTRIC HOT AIR FRYER

USING THE APPLIANCE

The air fryer can prepare a large range of ingredients. Please refer to the table in the section “Settings” for recommended cooking temperatures, times and additional information about air frying.

Hot air frying

Connect the power cord to a grounded power outlet.
Carefully pull the pan out of the air fryer.
Put the ingredients in the basket and make sure the basket is “locked” in place in the pan.
Note: Never overfill the basket or exceed the recommended amount (see section
‘Settings’ in this chapter), as this could negatively affect the quality of the end results.
Slide the pan back into the air fryer (you will feel a “catch” when it has been inserted correctly).
Never use the pan without the basket in it.
If the pan isn’t inserted into the air fryer properly, the appliance won’t work!
Caution: Do not touch the pan during and immediately after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold the pan by the handle.
Turn the temperature control knob to the required temperature. See the table in the section “Settings” in this chapter to determine the recommended temperature.
Determine the required preparation time for the ingredient (see the table in the section “Settings” in this chapter).
The timer control knob acts as the “ON/OFF” switch for the Air Fryer. Turn the timer knob
to the required preparation time:
Tip: Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold or you can preheat the Air Fryer without any ingredients inside. To preheat, turn the temperature knob to the temperature you will be frying at and then turn the timer knob to more than 3 minutes and wait until the heating-up light goes out (after approx. 3 minutes). Then remove the empty pan & basket, fill the basket with your choice of ingredients, replace the filled pan & basket assembly into the fryer and turn the timer knob to the required preparation time.
The pan & basket will be hot at this time, so be careful when handling it and filling it with ingredients.
a. The power light and the heating light illuminate.
b. The timer starts counting down from the set preparation time and the cooking process begins.
c. During the hot air frying process, the heating light comes on and goes out from time to time. This indicates that the heating element is switched on and off to maintain the correct (set) temperature.
d. Excess oil from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the pan.
Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the cooking process (see section “Settings” in this chapter). To shake the ingredients, pull the pan out of the appliance by the handle and shake it. Then slide the pan back into the air fryer and continue cooking.
Caution: Do not press the button on the handle during shaking as this will cause the basket to separate from the pan.
Tip: To reduce the weight, you can remove the basket from the pan and shake the basket only. To do so, pull the pan out of the appliance, place it on a heat-resistant surface and press the button on the handle to release the basket.
Tip: If you set the timer to half the preparation time, the timer bell will go off when you have to shake the ingredients. However, this means that you have to set the timer again to the remaining preparation time after shaking.
Tip: If you set the timer to full preparation time, there will be no timer bell halfway through cooking. You will need to monitor the cooking process to determine the halfway point for shaking the pan. You can pull the pan out at any time to check the ingredients cooking condition, the power will shut down automatically and resume after you slide the pan back into the appliance (the timer always continues to count down in this
situation).
When you hear the timer bell, the set cooking 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 counterclockwise to 0, or remove the pan.
Check if the ingredients are ready. If the ingredients are not yet ready, simply slide the pan back into the appliance and set the timer for a few extra minutes.
To remove small ingredients (e.g. fries), place the pan on a heat resistant surface, press the basket release button and lift the basket out of the pan. Do not turn the basket upside down with the pan still attached to it, as any excess moil that has collected on the bottom of the pan will leak onto the ingredients. After hot air frying, the pan and the ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of the ingredients in the air fryer, steam may escape from the pan. After hot air frying, the pan, basket and the inside of the appliance are hot, avoid
touching them.
Empty the contents of the basket into a bowl or onto a plate.
Tip: To remove large or fragile ingredients, use a pair of tongs to lift the ingredients out
of the basket.
The air fryer is instantly ready for cooking and does not need to cool down between
cooking batches of food.

Settings

The table below provides recommendations for the basic settings for the ingredients you
want to prepare.
Note: Keep in mind that these settings are suggestions. As ingredients differ in origin, size,
shape as well as brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for your ingredients.
Because the rapid hot 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.

Tips:

Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the cooking process optimizes the end
result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the air fryer
within a few minutes after you added the oil.
Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer.
The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 18 oz/500 grams.
Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made dough also
requires a shorter cooking time than home-made dough.
Place a baking tin or oven dish in the air fryer basket 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 148°C/300°F for up to 10 minutes.

TROUBLESHOOTING

problem

|

Possible cause

|

Solution

---|---|---

The air fryer does not work

|

The appliance is not plugged in.

|

Plug the appliance into a grounded electrical socket.

You have not set the timer.

|

Turn the timer knob to the required cooking time to switch on the appliance.

The pan is not put into the appliance properly.

|

Slide the pan into the appliance properly.

The ingredients fried with the air fryer are not done.

|

The basket is too full.

|

Put smaller batches of ingredients in the basket. Smaller batches fry faster and more evenly.

The temperature is set too low.

|

Turn the temperature control knob to the required temperature setting (see section “Settings” in the chapter ‘Using the appliance’).

The cooking time is too short.

|

Turn the timer knob to the required cooking time (see section “Settings” in the chapter’ Using the appliance’).

The ingredients are fried unevenly in the air fryer.

|

Certain types of ingredients need to be shaken halfway through the cooking process.

|

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 the chapter ‘Using the appliance’.

Fried snacks are not crispy when they come out of the air fryer.

|

You used a type of snack 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.

|

There are too many ingredients in the basket.

|

Do not fill the basket beyond full, refer to the table in the “Setting” section.

The basket is not placed in the pan correctly.

|

Push the basket down into the pan until you hear a click.

White smoke comes out of the appliance.

|

You are preparing greasy ingredients.

|

When you fry greasy ingredients in the air fryer, a large amount of oil will leak into the pan. The oil produces white smoke and the pan may heat up more than usual. This does not affect the appliance or the end result.

The pan 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 type of potato.

|

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.

Home-Made French Fries
To make home-made fries, follow the steps below.
1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into ¼” thick sticks.
2. Soak the potato sticks for 30 minutes, then drain them and dry them with a paper towel.
3. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of cooking oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top and mix until the sticks
are coated with oil.
4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fi ngers or a kitchen utensil so that excess oil
stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks in the basket.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the potato sticks in the basket at once, to prevent
excess oil from ending up on the bottom of the pan.
5. For best results, preheat the Air Fryer to 200°C/390°F.
6. Fry the potato sticks according to the instructions in the table contained in the “Settings”
portion of this guide.
