CAUTION
• Never fill the basket with the ingredients
beyond the MAX line marking. Ensure that
the food inserted into the basket fits well
allowing good heat flow. Do not overfill or
cram food into the basket.
* Cooking results may vary depending on the
brand used.
**If the cooking time takes more than
60 minutes, increase the timer to the re-
maining cooking time required immediately
before cooking time elapses.
*** When dehydrating, produce drying times
can vary. Drying times are affected by the size
of the load, thickness of the sliced produce
and the moisture content of the food itself.
(Therefore, broad drying times have been
given in the table above).
**** Do not dry lighter foods like kale, parsley,
herbs as the force of the fan may blow them
into the fan and heating element, which could
become a hazard.
• Always wear protective, insulated oven mitts
when inserting, removing or handling items
from the air fryer.
WARNING
When removing cooked food items with a
weight greater than 1.5kg, securely hold the
pan by the handle and pull the pan out of the
air fryer, placing the pan on a heat-resistant flat
surface. Do not slide the safety cover inwards,
do not press the basket safety release button
and do not lift the basket out of the pan. Both
pan and basket must remain intact. Remove
heavy food items from the basket using
appropriate kitchen utensils.
