risk of burn injury, DO NOT touch hot surfaces. Allow the air fryer to cool to room
temperature, then clean the appliance according to Care, cleaning and storage
instructions.
Initial test run
Do you
have
to do the test run? No — but getting to know the ins and outs of your Vortex
Mini prepares you for success in the kitchen! Take a few minutes to get to know how this
little guy works.
Stage 1: Setting up the air fryer
for cooking
01
Connect the power lead to a 220-240 V
power source.
The air fryer is in standby mode and
the display shows
OFF
.
02
Remove the air fryer basket from the
cooking chamber.
03
Place the cooking tray on the bottom
of the air fryer basket (if it is not already
installed).
04
Insert the air fryer basket back into
the cooking chamber.
05
Touch
Air Fry
.
06
Touch
Time
, then turn the dial to adjust
the cooking time to 20 minutes (
00:20
).
Each Smart Programme automatically
saves the adjustments you make to
the time and temperature when you
touch
Start
.
07
Touch
Start
to begin!
The display shows
On
and the cooking
status shows
Preheat
.
The first few times you use your air fryer,
you may notice a strong plastic smell.
This is normal, non-toxic, and goes
away quickly.
Stage 2: "Cooking" (...but not really,
this is just a test!)
01
When the air fryer is hot enough,
the display shows
Add Food
.
For this initial test, do not add food
to the air fryer basket.
Carefully remove and re-insert the air
fryer basket. The display shows the
cooking time and temperature, and
the cooking status shows
Cook
.
02
Part way through cooking, the display
shows
turn Food
.
Wait 10 seconds for the programme to
resume automatically, or, remove and
re-insert the air fryer basket to pause
and resume the programme manually.
03
When 1 minute remains, the display
counts down the remaining cooking
time in seconds.
When the Smart Programme is
complete, the display shows
End
and
the fan blows for a little while to help
cool the air fryer.
04
Press the dial or remove and re-insert
the air fryer basket to return to standby
mode and start cooking for real!
If you forget this last step, the air fryer
will beep to remind you about it after
5, 30, and 60 minutes.
