Using your Air Fryer

Before first use:

• Remove all packaging materials.
• Remove any stickers or labels from the appliance.
• Thoroughly clean the metal rack and pan with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a non-abrasive sponge.
• Wipe inside and outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
• Do not fill the pan with oil or frying fat. This is an oil-free fryer that works through the rapid circulation of hot air.

Automatic Switch Off:

• The Air Fryer has a built-in timer, which will automatically shut down the Air Fryer when the timer reaches zero. You can manually switch the unit off by turning the timer dial anti-clockwise to zero.
• Air Fryer Drawer Safety Switch – For your safety, this air fryer contains a safety switch in the drawer designed to keep it from accidentally turning on if the frying basket and drawer are not properly situated inside the appliance, whilst the timer is not set. To use the air fryer, please ensure the basket is correctly inside the drawer, the drawer is fully closed and the cooking timer has been set.

Preparing for Use:

• Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal and even surface.
• Do not place the appliance on non-heart-resistant surface.
• Place the metal rack in the pan.
• Pull the cord from the storage compartment which locates on 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, the airflow will be disrupted and affects the hot air frying result.

Air Frying:

• Connect the mains plug into an earthed wall socket.
• Carefully pull the pan out of the Hot-air fryer.
• Slide the pan back into the Hot-air fryer.
• Noting to carefully align with the guides in the body of the fryer.
  Caution: Do not touch the pan during and some time after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold the pan by the handle.
• Determine the required preparation time for the ingredient (see section ‘Settings’ in this chapter).
• To switch on the appliance, turn the timer knob to the required preparation time
• Turn the temperature control dial to the required temperature.
• Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold.

Pre-heating:

If you want, you can also let the appliance preheat without any ingredients inside. In that case, turn the timer dial to more than 3 minutes and wait until the heating-up light goes out (after approx. 3 minutes). Then fill the basket and turn the timer dial to the required preparation time.

a. The timer starts counting down the set preparation time.
b. During the hot air frying process, the heating-up light comes on and goes out from time to time. This indicates that the heating element is switched on and off to maintain the set temperature.
c. Excess oil from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the pan.

• 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 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 to the remaining preparation time after shaking.
When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has elapsed. Pull the pan out of the appliance and place it on the trial framework.
Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do this, turn the timer control dial to zero.

• 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 for a few extra minutes.
• To remove ingredients (e.g. fries), pull the pan out of the Hot-air fryer and place it on trial framework.
  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. Both the pan and ingredients will be very hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the fryer, steam may escape from the pan so care is needed.
• Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate.
• When a batch of ingredients is ready, the Air Fryer is instantly ready for preparing another batch.

Settings:

• This table below will help you to select the basic settings for the ingredients.
  Note: Keep in mind that these settings are indications. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape as well as brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for your ingredients. Because the Rapid Air technology instantly reheats the air inside the appliance instantly, 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 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 Hot-air fryer within a few minutes after you added the oil.
• Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the Hot-air fryer.
• Snacks that can be prepared in a oven can also be prepared in the Hot-air fryer
• The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 200 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.
• Place a baking tin or oven dish in the Hot-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 Hot-air fryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 150°C for up to 10 minutes.
