Note: If you want, you can also let the appliance preheat without any ingredients
inside. In that case, turn the timer knob to more than 3 minutes and wait until the
heating-up light goes out ( after approx. 3 minutes). Then fill the basket and turn
the timer knob to the re uired preparation time.
•The power-on light and the heating-up light go on.
•The timer starts counting down the set preparation time.
•During the hot air frying process, the heating-up light comes on and goes out from time to
time. This indicates that the heating element is switched on and off to maintain the set
temperature.
•Excess oil from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the pan.
8. Some ingredients re uire shaking halfway through the preparation time (see
section ’Settings’ in this chapter). To shake the ingredients, pull the pan out of the
appliance by the handle and shake it. Then slide the pan back into the air fryer.
Caution: Do not press the button the handle during shaking.
Tip: To reduce the weight, you can remove the basket from the pan and shake the basket only. To do so, pull the
pan out of the appliance, place it on a heat-resistant surface and press the button of handle.
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 to the remaining preparation time after
shaking.
9. When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has elapsed. Pull the pan out
of the appliance and place it on a heat-resistant surface.
Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do this, turn the time
control knob to 0.
10. Check if the ingredients are ready.
If the ingredients are not ready yet, simply slide the pan back into the appliance
and set the timer to a few extra minutes.
11. To remove ingredients (e.g fries), pull the pan out of the air fryer and place it on a
heat-resistant surface and press the basket release button, then lift the basket out
of the pan.
Do not turn the basket upside down with the pan still attached to it, as any
excess oil that has collected on the bottom of the pan will leak onto the
ingredients.
After air frying, the pan and the ingredients will be hot. Depending on the type
of the ingredients in the air fryer, steam may also escape from the pan.
12. Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate.
Tip: To remove large or fragile ingredients, lift the ingredients out of the basket using a pair of tongs
13. When a batch of ingredients is ready and removed from the pan, the air fryer is
instantly ready for preparing another batch.
