USING THE AIR FRYER
The air fryer can prepare a large range of ingredients. Please refer to the tables in the
“Settings” section for recommended cooking temperatures, times and additional information
about air frying.
Hot air frying
1. Connect the power cord to a grounded power outlet.
2. Carefully pull the pan out of the air fryer.
3. Put the ingredients in the basket and make sure the basket is "locked" in place in the pan.
Note: Never overfi ll the basket or exceed the recommended amount (see the "Settings"
section), as this could negatively affect the quality of the end results.
4. Slide the pan back into the air fryer (you will feel a “catch” when it has been inserted
correctly).
Never use the pan without the basket in it.
If the pan is not inserted into the air fryer properly, the air fryer won’t work!
Caution: Do not touch the pan during and immediately after use, as it gets very hot.
Only hold the pan by the handle.
5. Turn the temperature control knob to the desired temperature. See the "Settings" section to
determine the recommended temperature.
6. The timer knob acts as the “ON/OFF” switch for the air fryer. Turn the timer knob to the
desired preparation time. See the "Settings" section for more information.
Tip: Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the air fryer is cold or preheat the air fryer
without any ingredients in it. To preheat, turn the temperature control knob to the
temperature you will be frying, turn the timer knob to just past 3 minutes, then wait until
the heating light goes out (after approximately 3 minutes). Next, remove the empty pan
and basket, fi ll the basket with your choice of ingredients, insert the fi lled pan and basket
assembly into the air fryer, then turn the timer knob to the desired preparation time. The
pan and basket will be hot at this time, so be careful when handling it and fi lling it with
ingredients.
a. The power light and the heating light illuminate.
b. The timer starts counting down from the set preparation time, and the cooking process
begins.
c. During the hot air frying process, the heating light comes on and goes out from time to time.
This indicates that the heating element is switched on and off to maintain the correct (set)
temperature.
d. Excess oil from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the pan.
