IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed including the following:

Read all instructions.
Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
To protect against electrical shock do not immerse cord, plugs or appliance in water or other liquid.
Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. For assistance in the U.S. and Canada only, call 1-866-309-8817.
The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
Do not block any ventilation openings. Install in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
Plug the cord into the wall outlet.To disconnect, turn any control to “off “, then remove plug from wall outlet.
Use extreme caution when removing the pan, basket and disposing hot grease.
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, creating a risk of electric shock.
Use only on properly grounded outlet.
A short power-supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord) should be used to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is used: The marked electrical rating of the cord must be as great as the rating of the appliance. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the edge of the counter or table top where it could be pulled by children or tripped over unintentionally.
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other).To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way.If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
Oversize foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in the appliance as they may create a fire or risk of electric shock.
A fire may occur if the appliance is covered or touching flammable material, including curtains, draperies, walls, and the like, when in operation. Do not store any item on top of the appliance when in operation.
Do not place any of the following materials in the appliance: paper, cardboard, plastic, and the like.

Before First Use

Remove all packaging material.
Remove any stickers or labels from the appliance.
Thoroughly clean the basket and the pan with hot water, some dishwashing liquid and 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.
Place the basket in the pan properly (Fig. 2).
Pull the power cord out of the cord storage compartment in the bottom of the appliance.

Using The Appliance

The airfryer can prepare a large range of ingredients.The recipe booklet included helps you get to know the appliance.

Hot air frying

Put the power plug in a grounded wall outlet.
Carefully pull the pan out of the airfryer (Fig. 3).
Put the ingredients in the basket (Fig. 4).

Note: Never fill the basket beyond the MAX indication or exceed the amount indicated in the table (see section `Settings’ in this chapter), as this could affect the quality of the end result.
Slide the pan back into the airfryer (Fig. 5).
Turn the temperature control knob clockwise to the required temperature. See section `Settings’ in this chapter to determine the right temperature (Fig. 6).

Note: If you want to prepare different ingredients at the same time, make sure you check the preparation time and the temperature required for the different ingredients before you start to prepare them simultaneously. Home-made fries and drumsticks, for example, can be prepared simultaneously because they require the same settings.
Determine the required preparation time for the ingredient (see section `Settings’ in this chapter).
To turn on the appliance, turn the timer knob to the required preparation time (Fig. 7).

Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold.
Note: If you want, you can also let the appliance preheat without any ingredients inside. In that case, turn the timer knob to more than 3 minutes. Then fill the basket and turn the timer knob to the required preparation time.
● The power-on indicator goes on (Fig. 8).

● The timer starts counting down the set preparation time.
● 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 airfryer (Fig. 9).

Tip:To reduce the weight, you can remove the basket from the pan and shake the basket only.To do so, pull the pan out of the appliance, place it on a heat-resistant surface and press the basket release button.
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 a heat-resistant surface.
Note: You can also turn off the appliance manually.To do this, turn the timer control knob to 0 (Fig. 11).
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. 12)
Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate. (Fig. 13)

Tip:To remove large or fragile ingredients, use a pair of tongs to lift the ingredients out of the basket (Fig. 14).
When a batch of ingredients is ready, the airfryer is instantly ready for preparing another batch.

Settings

The table below helps you to select the basic settings for the ingredients you want to prepare.
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, 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 airfryer within a few minutes after you added the oil.
Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the airfryer.
Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the airfryer.
The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 1lb/0,45kg.
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 300°F / 150°C for up to 10 minutes.
Make sure the ingredients that come out of this appliance have a light to medium brown color instead of a dark brown color. Remove burnt food remnants. Do not fry fresh potatoes at a temperature above 356°F / 180°C to minimize the production of acrylamide.

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.

Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
Soak the potato sticks in a bowl for at least 30 minutes, take them out and dry them with paper towel.
Pour ½ 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 basket.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks in the basket in one go, to prevent excess oil from ending up on the bottom of the pan.
Fry the potato sticks according to the instructions in this chapter.

Cleaning

Clean the appliance after every use. Remove oil from the bottom of the pan after every use to prevent smoke.

Remove the power plug from the wall outlet, turn timer control knob to 0 and let the appliance cool down.
Note: Remove the pan to let the airfryer cool down more quickly.
Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
Clean the pan and basket with hot water, some dishwashing liquid and a non-abrasive sponge.
You can use a degreasing liquid to remove any remaining dirt.
Note:The pan and basket are dishwasher-safe.
Tip: If dirt sticks to the basket, or the bottom of the pan, fill the pan with hot water with some dishwashing liquid. Put the basket in the pan and let the pan and the basket soak for approximately 10 minutes.
Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge.
If necessary clean the heater with a cleaning brush to remove any food residues.

Storage

Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
Be sure all parts are clean and dry.
Push the cord into the cord storage compartment. Secure the cord by inserting it into the cord fixing slot.

Environment

– Do not throw away the appliance with the normal household waste at the end of its life, but hand it in at an official collection point for recycling. By doing this, you help to preserve the environment (Fig. 15).
