hot air frying
The air fryer can prepare a large range of ingredients. See the section SETTINGS for an indication of the timing and temperature
settings.
1.
Check that the voltage in your home corresponds with the voltage printed on the bottom of the appliance and plug the fryer into
an earthed socket.
2. Carefully pull the pan out of the air fryer by the handle.
3. Place the ingredients in the basket. Attention: never exceed the recommended amount or fill the basket over the maximum, as this
could affect the quality of the end result.
4. Slide the pan back into the air fryer properly. Never use the pan without the basket. If the pan is not placed into the air fryer
correctly, the appliance will not function.
Caution: do not touch the pan during and sometime after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold the pan by the handle.
5. Turn the temperature knob to the required temperature. An indication of the correct temperatures can be found in the section
SETTINGS.
6. Determine the required preparation time for the ingredients with the table in the section SETTINGS.
7. To switch on the appliance, turn the timer knob to the required preparation time.
Tip: add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold.
If you want to preheat the appliance without ingredients, turn the timer knob to more than 3 minutes and wait until the thermostat
light goes out (after aproxx. 3 minutes). Then remove the pan, fill the basket and turn the timer knob to the required preparation
time.
• The on/off control light and the thermostat light go on.
• The timer starts counting down the set preparation time. When you have set the wrong time, too long e.g., simply turn the timer
knob back to the desired time.
• During the hot air frying process, the thermostat light lights up and goes out from time to time. This indicates that the heating
element is switched on and off to maintain a constant temperature.
• Excess oil from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the pan.
8. Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time. Take the pan out of the appliance by the handle and
shake it with the ingredients. Then slide the pan back into the air fryer and continue to bake.
Attention: do not press the unlock button on the handle.
9. When you hear the timer signal, the set preparation 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 knob to 0, or pull out the pan directly.
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 more minutes.
Attention: when you need to set the timer for a few minutes, first turn the timer past at least 15 minutes and than turn it back to
the desired number of minutes, e.g. 5 minutes. This prevents failure of the timer during frying.
11. To remove small ingredients (e.g. fries), 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 oil that has been 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 and the inside are hot, avoid touching these parts.
12. Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate. Use a pair of tongs to lift the ingredients out of the basket with large or fragile
ingredients.
13. When a portion of ingredients is ready, the air fryer is instantly ready for preparing another portion.
THE BAKING TIN
Baking, grilling and roasting is possible with the supplied baking tin.
For example, you can prepare a savory pie, a bread or a cake. You can also use these to fry chicken drumsticks in their own fat.
Place the baking tin with the ingredients inside the frying basket.
