• Do not fill the basket over the 'Max' mark (screen-printed in the inside of the basket).
• The fan may continue working after cooking, even if the device is off. This is normal, as the fan is cooling down the device.

Note
This information is indicative, as ingredients differ in origin, size, shape and brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for the ingredients that you are using.

Tips

• Smaller ingredients require shorter preparation time than the larger ones.
• A larger quantity of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time, and a smaller quantity of ingredients only requires a slightly shorter preparation time.
• Stirring small ingredients during the frying process optimises the result and can help prevent unevenly cooked ingredients. To do so, remove the basket and shake it.
• Add some oil to raw chips for a crispier result.
• The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 400 grams. - Do not use the device to fry greasy food (such as sausages).
• Food that can be cooked in an oven can also be cooked with the device.
• Pre-made dough requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
• You can also use the device to reheat ingredients. To do so, set the temperature at 150ºC for 5-10 minutes.

Temperature icons

• With both icons (11), placed over and below the thermometer, you can increase or decrease the cooking temperature as desired.
• However, to set the time, first you need to select a basket (13 or 17) or both baskets (16).

Start/Pause

This icon (12) will allow you to start or pause the selected cooking.

• If you press this icon (12) after selecting the programme (10) or temperature (11) and time (9), the device will start cooking.
• If you press this icon (12) when there is a cooking in process, you will pause it. To restart it, press it again (12).

Synchronisation

• This function is useful when you have set different cooking times on the baskets and you wish them to finish at once. With this function, if in the left basket you have selected 20 min and in the right basket you have selected 10 min, it will start the cooking process in the right basket 10 minutes after so both cooking processes finish at once.
• To programme this function, select first the left basket (13) or right (17), then the desired programme (10) or the desired time (9) and temperature (11). Press the 'Sync' icon (14) and it will stop flashing. Next, press the Start/Pause icon (12).

Note

• If you remove any basket when the device is operating: the display will show 'Pot' if you remove the left basket and 'Out' if you remove the right basket, if you remove both baskets it will show 'Pot Out'. If it takes you more than 90 seconds, but less than 5 minutes on placing the removed basket, the basket you have removed will resume the cooking process. When you place the basket back in place, the device will resume the cooking, but the synchronisation function will be deactivated.

Preheating

• To select this function, select first the basket (13, 16 or 17) you wish to use, then select the preheating function (15) and set the desired preheating temperature (11). The preheating time is 5 minutes by default, but if you wish to cancel it at any time, press the power button (8).
• Once the preheating has finished, press the icons 13 or 17, depending on the preheated basket, and press the programme (10) or set the desired time (9) and temperature (11) manually and next, press the Start/Pause icon (12).
