Note
You may notice a slight burning smell or smoke when using the fryer for the first time, caused by the excess of lubricants from the manufacturing process. This will not affect the fryer safety.

OPERATION

The table below shows the temperatures and times of the pre-set functions, the amount of food that can be inserted and whether stirring is required.

• Keep in mind that these are just indications. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape and brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for the ingredients that you are using.
• Add approximately 1-2 minutes to the cooking time indicated in the table if you start frying while the device is still cold.

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 preventing unevenly fried ingredients.
• Add some oil for a crispier result.
• Do not use the air fryer to fry greasy food (such as sausages).
• Food that can be cooked in an oven can also be cooked with the air fryer.
• Pre-made dough requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
• You can also use the device to re-heat ingredients.
• To obtain the best results, we advise you to preheat the basket for 4 minutes without food inside.
