Tips

Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter cooking time.
A larger amount of ingredients only requires a little more time, and a smaller amount requires a little less cooking time.
Shaking smaller ingredients several times during the cooking time results in a better and more even end result.
Do not cook extremely fat ingredients such as sausages in the appliance.
Snacks that you would cook in an oven, can also be cooked in the hot air fryer.
The maximum amount is 600 grammes.
If necessary, use an oil spray to lightly oil the ingredients. This will make them even more crispy.
Use ready-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Ready-made dough also cooks faster than home-made dough.
Place a baking tin or oven dish in the pan if you want to make a cake or quiche, or if you want to cook delicate or filled ingredients.
You can also use the appliance to heat food. Select the Preheating programme . The appliance heats your dish for 6 minutes at 140 °C.
Add 3 minutes to the cooking time if the appliance is cold.
The turbo technology immediately reheats the air in the appliance. For that reason, it makes no difference for the end result if you briefly open the flap.
As ingredients can differ in origin, dimension, shape and brand, Inventum is unable to indicate the most optimum setting.

cleaning and maintenance

Clean the appliance as follows after each use.
Allow the appliance to cool down before cleaning it.
After frying, the metal interior is hot. Do not touch the interior immediately after frying.
When cleaning the accessories, do not use metal kitchenware or abrasive agents, as these could damage the accessories.

Remove the plug from the socket and allow the appliance to cool down fully before cleaning it. Instruction: cooling goes quicker if the accessories are removed from the appliance.
Clean the exterior of the appliance with a damp cloth.
Clean the accessories with hot water containing a little washing-up liquid and a sponge. You can also wash the accessories in the dishwasher.
Instruction: stubborn dirt can be removed by soaking the accessories in hot water and a little bit of washing-up liquid for 10 minutes.
Clean the interior of the appliance with a damp soft sponge that you have first soaked in hot water and squeezed out.
Remove any food residues from the heating element using a soft washing-up brush. Be careful with washing-up liquid. This could be left behind on the heating element and give a foreign taste to the ingredients.

Never submerge the appliance, cord or plug in water or other liquids.
Before storing the appliance, allow it to cool down fully and remove the plug from the socket.
Check that all components are clean and dry. Store the appliance in a clean and dry location.

Fill a tray with approximately 120 grammes of bicarbonate of soda and mix in a couple of tablespoons of water, thus creating a pasty mass.
Spread out the mass with a soft sponge over the dirty surface and scrub it clean. Allow the mass to act on the dirt for approximately 15 minutes. Rinse down the plates with clean water.
Then wash them with soapy water.
