hINTS AND TIPS
• For short cooking times, it is recommended to turn the time control knob (4)
5 minutes past the required time and then turning it back to the required
cooking time. This will ensure higher timer accuracy.
• In the event of food flare-ups, do not remove the basket holder (10); turn the time
control knob (4) to 0 and unplug the appliance.
• Do not release the basket (14) from the basket holder (10) unless it is placed on a
clean, flat and heat resistant surface.
• When the food you are cooking requires shaking, it is recommended to set
the time to half the require time. This way a bell will ring and remind you to
shake the basket (14).
• The optimal amount for cooking crispy fries is up to 1.2 lb. of sliced potatoes.
• Use pre-made dough to cook filled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made dough
also requires a shorter cooking time than home-made dough.
• Place a baking tin or oven-compatible dish in the basket (14) if you want to
bake a cake, quiche or if you want to fry fragile or filled ingredients.
• You can also use the appliance to reheat food. To reheat food, set the temperature
to 290°F for up to 10 minutes.
