INTRODUCTION

This Air Fryer provides an easy and healthy way of preparing a wide assortment of food – with little or no oil! The air fryer uses hot air, in combination with high-speed air circulation, and a top grill to prepare your dishes quickly and easily. The ingredients are heated from all sides, at once, and there is no need to add oil in most cases.

BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove all packing material.
Remove any stickers or labels from the appliance – other than the rating label.
Thoroughly clean the frying basket and tray with hot soapy water using a non-abrasive sponge.
Note: You can also clean these parts in the dishwasher.
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 that is also heat resistant.
Place the the basket in the frying tray .
Insert the frying tray into the appliance.
Ensure that the cable is not clear of obstacles and not hanging off the edge of the counter.
Do not fill the frying tray with oil or any other liquid.
Do not put anything on top of the appliance. This disrupts the airflow and affects the air-frying result.
Ensure that nothing is blocking the outlet vent.

USING THE APPLIANCE

The air fryer can be used to cook a wide assortment of food.

Insert the plug in an earthed wall socket.
Using the handle carefully pull the frying tray out of the air fryer.
Place the food ingredients into the basket.
Note: Never fill the basket beyond the Max amount indicated on page 10, as this could affect the quality of the end-result.
Slide the frying tray back into the air fryer.
Never use the frying tray without the basket inplace.
Turn the Temperature knob to the required temperature. (See page 10 to determine the right temperature).
To switch ON the appliance, turn the Timer knob to the required preparation time.
Note: Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold. You can also let the appliance preheat without any ingredients inside. In that case, turn the timer knob to a little more than 3 minutes and wait until the heating-up light goes out (after approx. 3 minutes). Then fill the tray and turn the timer knob to the required preparation time. The Power on light and the heating-up light will come on. During the operation of the air fryer, the heating indicator lamp will turn on and off continuously. This shows that the heating components are turning on and off continuously, thus to maintain the Setting temperature. The redundant oil from the food ingredients will be collected at the bottom of the basket under the grill.
Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time (see page 10). To shake the ingredients, pull the frying tray out of the appliance by the handle and shake it. Then slide the frying tray back into the air fryer.
Tip: If you set the timer to half the preparation time, you hear the timer bell when you have to shake the ingredients. However, this means that you have to set the timer again for the remaining preparation time after shaking.
When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has elapsed. Pull the tray 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.
Check the ingredients are ready. If the ingredients are not ready yet, simply slide the frying tray back into the appliance and set the timer to a few extra minutes.
Remove the food from the basket, always use tongs to avoid burning your hands or fingers. After hot air frying, the frying tray, basket and the ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the air fryer, steam may escape from the frying tray.
WARNING: Do not touch the basket or tray during and some time after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold the tray by the handle. Do not turn the basket upside down with the frying tray still attached to it, as any excess oil that has collected on the bottom of the frying tray will spill out and leak onto the ingredients
When a batch of ingredients are ready, the air fryer is instantly ready for preparing another batch.

AUTO POWER 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.

COOKING TIPS

Try cooking food ingredients of similar sizes together. Large food will require more cooking time than smaller food.
Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time than larger ingredients.
A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time, a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a slightly shorter preparation time.
Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimises the end result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
You can coat fresh potatoes with a little oil for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the air fryer within a few minutes after you have 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 500 grams.
Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients by setting the temperature to 150°C and the timer to about 10 minutes.

MAKING HOME-MADE FRIES
For the best results, we advise to use pre-baked fries. If you want to make home-made fries, follow the steps below:

Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, take them out and dry them with kitchen paper.
Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.
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 in the pot.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks in the tray in one go, to prevent excess oil from collecting at the bottom of the frying tray.
Fry the potato sticks according to the timing suggestions.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Clean the appliance after every use.
The frying tray, basket and the inside of the appliance have a non-stick coating. Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean them, as this may damage the non-stick coating.

Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the appliance cool down.
Note: Remove the frying tray to let the air fryer cool down quickly.
Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
Clean the frying tray and basket with hot soapy water and a non-abrasive sponge.
Note: The frying tray and basket are dishwasher-proof.
Tip: If dirt is stuck to the basket, or at the bottom of the frying tray, fill the frying tray with hot water and with some washing up liquid. Put the basket in the frying tray and let it soak for approx. 10 minutes.
Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non- abrasive sponge.
Clean the heating element with a cleaning brush to remove any food residues.

STORAGE

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
Make sure all parts are clean and dry.
Store in a cool and dry place.
