This airfryer works on hot air. Do not fill the pan with oil, frying fat or any other liquid.

Do not put anything on top of the appliance or block air vents. This disrupts the airflow and affects the hot air frying result.

To remove the pan, use oven-safe gloves to hold the pan or touch the drawer as they are very hot. Tilt pan backward and lift it off the tracks (2) (Fig. 4).

9. When the appliance starts beeping, the set cooking time has elapsed.

Note: You can also stop the cooking process manually. To do this, press the START/PAUSE button (Fig.8).

10. Open the drawer by pulling the handle and check if the ingredients are ready.
    

If the ingredients are not ready yet, simply slide the drawer back into the airfryer by the handle and add a few extra minutes to the set time.

After the cooking process the pan, basket, and ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of ingredients in the airfryer, steam may escape from the pan.

Always remove basket with ingredients from pan to serve, as hot oil or rendered fat may be in bottom of pan. Be careful, steam may escape from pan

12. Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate (Fig. 16).
