Before first use

1. Remove all packaging material.
2. Remove any stickers or labels from the appliance.
3. Thoroughly clean the basket and the pan with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a non-abrasive sponge.
4. Wipe the inside and outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.

This is an Airfryer that works on hot air. Do not fill the pan with oil or frying fat.

Preparing for use

1. Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal and level surfaceDo not place the appliance on non-heat-resistant surfaces.
2. Place the basket in the pan properly (Fig. 3).

3.Pull the mains cord out of the cord storage compartment in the bottom of the appliance.

Do not fill the pan with oil or any other liquid.

Do not put anything on top of the appliance. This disrupts the airflow and affects the hot air frying result.

Using the appliance

The Airfryer can prepare a large range of ingredients.

Hot air frying

1. Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
2. Carefully pull the pan out of the Airfryer (Fig. 4).

3. Put the ingredients in the basket (Fig. 5).

4. Slide the pan back into the Airfryer (Fig. 6). Never use the pan without the basket in it.

5. Turn the temperature control knob to the required temperature. See section 'Settings’ in this chapter to determine the right temperature (Fig. 7).

6. Determine the required preparation time for the ingredient (see section ‘Settings’ in this chapter).

7. To switch on the appliance, turn the timer knob to the required preparation time (Fig. 8). Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold.

8. Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time (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 Airfryer (Fig. 9).

9. When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has elapsed. Pull the pan out of the appliance and place it on a heat-resistant surface.

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.

To remove small ingredients (e.g. fries), press the basket release button (1) and lift the basket out of the pan (2). (Fig. 11)

Do not turn the basket upside down with the pan still attached to it, as any excess oil 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 ingredients in the Airfryer, steam may escape from the pan.

12. Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate. (Fig. 12)

13. When a batch of ingredients is ready, the Airfryer is instantly ready for preparing another batch.

Settings

This table below helps you to select the basic settings for the ingredients you want to prepare.

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.

Tips

• 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.
• Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the Airfryer within a few minutes after you added the oil.
• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the Airfryer.
• 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 Airfryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 150°C for up to 10 minutes.

Making home-made fries

For the best results, we advise to use pre-baked (e.g. frozen) fries. If you want to make home-made fries, follow the steps below.

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
2. Soak the potato sticks in a bowl for at least 30 minutes, take them out and dry them with kitchen paper.
3. Pour 1⁄2 tablespoon of olive 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 fingers or a kitchen utensil so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks in the basket.
5. Fry the potato sticks according to the instructions in this chapter.

Cleaning

Clean the appliance after every use.

The pan, 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.

1. Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the appliance cool down.
2. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
3. Clean the pan, and basket with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a non- abrasive sponge.

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.

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

Storage

1. Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
2. Make sure all parts are clean and dry.
3. Push the cord into the cord storage compartment. Fix the cord by inserting it into the cord fixing slot.
