This Air Fryer provides an easy and healthy way of preparing a wide
assortment of food - with little or no oil! The air fryer uses hot air,
in combination with high-speed air circulation, and a top grill to
prepare your dishes quickly and easily. The ingredients are heated
from all sides, at once, and there is no need to add oil in most cases.
INTRODUCTION
PREPARING FOR USE
1. Place the air fryer on a stable, horizontal and level surface that
is also heat resistant.
2. Place the grill rack inside the frying basket.
3. Insert the frying basket into the air fryer.
4. Ensure that the cable is not clear of obstacles and not hanging
off the edge of the counter.
5. Do not fill the frying tray with oil or any other liquid.
6. Do not put anything on top of the air fryer. This disrupts the
airflow and affects the air-frying result.
7. Ensure that nothing is blocking the outlet vent.
1. Remove all packing material.
2. Remove any stickers or labels from the air fryer – other than the
rating label.
3. Thoroughly clean the frying basket and grill rack with hot soapy
water using a non-abrasive sponge.
4. Wipe the inside and outside of the air fryer with a moist cloth.
BEFORE FIRST USE

USING THE APPLIANCE
The air fryer can be used to cook a wide assortment of food.
1. Insert the plug in an earthed wall socket.
2. Using the handle carefully pull the frying basket out of the air
fryer.
3. Place the food ingredients into the basket.
4. Slide the frying tray back into the air fryer.
Never use the frying basket without the grill rack inside.
5. Turn the Temperature knob to the required temperature. (See
page 10 to determine the right temperature).
6. To switch ON the appliance, turn the Timer knob to the required
preparation time.
Note: Add 3 minutes to the preparation time when the air
fryer is cold. You can also let the air fryer preheat without any
ingredients inside. In that case, turn the timer knob to a little
more than 3 minutes and wait until the heating-up light goes out
(after approx. 3 minutes). Then fill the tray and turn the timer
knob to the required preparation time.
The Power on light and the heating-up light will come on.
During the operation of the air fryer, the heating indicator
lamp will turn on and off continuously. This shows that the
heating components are turning on and off continuously, thus to
maintain the Setting temperature.
The redundant oil from the food ingredients will be collected at
the bottom of the basket under the grill.
7. Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the
preparation time (see page 10). To shake the ingredients, pull
the frying basket out of the air fryer by the handle and shake it.
Then slide the frying tray back into the air fryer.

www.haden.com8
Tip: If you set the timer to half the preparation time, you hear
the timer bell when you have to shake the ingredients. However,
this means that you have to set the timer again for the remaining
preparation time after shaking.
8. When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has
elapsed. Pull the frying basket out of the air fryer and place it on
a heat-resistant surface.
Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do this, turn
the temperature control knob to 0.
9. Check the ingredients are ready. If the ingredients are not ready
yet, simply slide the frying tray back into the air fryer and set the
timer to a few extra minutes.
10. Remove the food from the basket, always use tongs to avoid
burning your hands or fingers. After air frying, the rack, basket
and the ingredients are hot. Depending on the type of ingredients
in the air fryer, steam may escape from the frying basket.
WARNING: Do not touch the basket or rack during and some
time after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold the basket by the
handle.
WARNING: Do not turn the basket upside down with the frying
tray still attached to it, as any excess oil that has collected on
the bottom of the frying tray will spill out and leak onto the
ingredients
11. When a batch of ingredients are ready, the air fryer is instantly
ready for preparing another batch.

• Try cooking food ingredients of similar sizes together. Large
food will require more cooking time than smaller food.
• Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter
preparation time than larger ingredients.
• A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer
preparation time, a smaller amount of ingredients only requires
a slightly shorter preparation time.
• Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation
time optimises the end result and can help prevent unevenly
fried ingredients.
• You can coat fresh potatoes with a little oil for a crispy result.
Fry your ingredients in the air fryer within a few minutes after
you have added the oil.
• Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages
in the air fryer.
• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in
the air fryer.
• The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 500 grams.
• Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily.
Pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than
home-made dough.
• You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients by setting the
temperature to 150°C and the timer to about 10 minutes.
COOKING TIPS
This appliance is equipped with a timer. When the timer has counted
down to 0, the appliance produces a bell sound and switches off
automatically. To switch off the appliance manually, turn the timer
knob anticlockwise to 0.

For the best results, we advise to use pre-baked fries. If you want to
make home-made fries, follow the steps below:
1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
2. Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes,
take them out and dry them with kitchen paper.
3. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top
and mix until the sticks are coated with oil.
4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen
utensil so that excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks
in the pot.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks in the tray in one go, to
prevent excess oil from collecting at the bottom of the frying tray.
5. Fry the potato sticks according to the timing suggestions.

Clean the appliance after every use.
The frying basket,rack and the inside of the appliance have a non-

materials to clean them, as this may damage the non-stick coating.
1 Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the air fryer
cool down.
Note: Remove the frying basket and place on a heat-resistant
surface to let the air fryer cool down quickly.
2 Wipe the outside of the air fryer with a moist cloth.
3 Clean the frying basket and rack with hot soapy water and a
non-abrasive sponge.
Tip: If dirt is stuck to the rack, or at the bottom of the frying
basket, fill the basket with hot water and with some washing up
liquid. Put the rack inside and let it soak for approx. 10 minutes.
4 Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-
abrasive sponge.
5 Clean the heating element with a cleaning brush to remove any
food residues.

TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Cause Solution
White smoke
comes out of the
appliance.
You are preparing greasy
ingredients.
The pan still contains greasy
residues from previous use.
Pay attention that the
temperature is well-controlled
to be under 180º when you fry
greasy ingredients in the air fryer.
White smoke is caused by
grease heating up in the pan.
Make sure you clean the pan
properly after each use.
Fresh potato fries
are fried unevenly
in the air fryer.
You did not soak the potato
sticks properly before you
fried them.
Soak the potato sticks in a bowl
of water for at least 30 minutes;
take them out and dry them
with kitchen paper.
You did not use the right
potato type.
Use fresh potatoes and make
sure they stay firm during frying.
Fresh potato fries
are not crispy when
they come out of
the air fryer.
The crispiness of the fries
depends on the amount of oil
and water in the fries.
Make sure you dry the potato
sticks properly before you coat
them with oil.
Cut the potato into thinner
sticks for a crispier result.
Add slightly more oil for a
crispier result.
Note: When using the Air Fryer for the first time, a slight smoke or
odor may be emitted. This is normal and will soon subside. Ensure
that there is sufficient ventilation around the fryer
