3. Place the device on a dry and heat-resistant
fl
at surface at a safe distance from
fl
amma-
ble objects. Make sure that the device is not accessible to children.
4. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed 220 - 240 volt plug socket.
5. You should use the device for the
fi
rst time without any food in it, as it may produce
a small amount of smoke or odours due to coating residues. Allow the device to heat
up on the highest temperature setting for approx. 15 minutes without any food in it
(see the "Use" chapter). During this time, make sure the room is well ventilated, e.g.
with wide-open windows!
For Your Safety
• The device is equipped with a safety mechanism which switches off the device automa-
tically if it overheats during operation. If the device switches off automatically during ope-
ration, move the timer to the
0
position and remove the mains plug from the plug socket.
Allow the device to cool down completely before you connect and use the device again.
• The device is equipped with an internal timer. Once the timer time which is set has
elapsed, a beep sounds and the supply of heat is automatically switched off. To
switch the device on again, the timer needs to be reset.
• The device switches off automatically when the drawer containing the basket insert
is pulled out of the device. For your own safety, always switch the device off
fi
rst by
moving the timer to the 0 position before you remove the drawer from the device.
Please note
• This device works with hot air. In general, you can prepare all dishes that can also
be prepared in a conventional fan oven. It is suitable, among other things, for hot-air
grilling of chips and potato wedges made from fresh potatoes, for cooking frozen
chips and other frozen convenience products, and for cooking all kinds of chopped
up food (both fresh vegetables and fresh meat and fresh
fi
sh).
• Generally it is not necessary to preheat the device. However, to be better able to deter-
mine when the food is cooked and when preparing food which has to be ready "on the
dot", preheating is recommended. To preheat the device, use the temperature control
to set the cooking temperature you want and use the timer to set a time of more than
three minutes. When the temperature control lamp goes out (after around 3 minutes),
the device has reached the set temperature. You can now cook your food.
• You generally do not require any oil to cook food. You can add oil to your food to en-
hance the taste by spraying your food with a little oil from the oil atomiser. In addition,
you can also prepare marinated food or food in breadcrumbs.
• Cooking times are dependent on the size and quantity of the food and on the coo-
king temperature. However, in general the cooking times are shorter than in a con-
ventional oven. Start with shorter cooking times and then adjust the cooking times
to re
fl
ect your own personal taste.
• For the preparation of frozen products, please follow the time and temperature spe-
ci
fi
cations of the manufacturer. To get a crispy result, never add fat when preparing
mass-produced frozen products as they have generally already been pre-fried. The
preparation time may be reduced slightly. You should check whether your food is
already cooked before the stated cooking time has expired.
• For preparing homemade chips made from fresh potatoes, you should pay heed to
a few tips:
