SETTINGS
The information on the next page will help you to select the basic settings for some foods. These
settings are just indications. As food differs in size and shape, you might need to add a few minutes or
fry it shorter.
Smaller food usually requires a slightly shorter frying time than larger food. A larger amount of food
only requires a slightly longer frying time, a smaller amount of food only requires a slightly shorter
frying time.
WARNING! Do not fry extremely greasy food such as sausages in the Air Fryer.
Note: You can also use the Air Fryer to reheat food. To do so, set the temperature to 150°C and the
timer to up to 10 minutes.
HOW TO MAKE HOME MADE FRIES
1. Peel the potatoes and slice them into even sticks (about 8 mm x 8 mm).
2. Wash the potato sticks thoroughly and dry them.
3. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top and mix until the sticks are coated
evenly with oil.
4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your ngers or a kitchen utensil so that the excess oil can drip
back into the bowl. Place the sticks into the pan.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks into the pan in one go, to prevent excess oil from ending
up at the bottom of the pan.
5. Fry the potato sticks according to the instructions in the table on the next page.

TROUBLESHOOTING
PROBLEM CAUSE SOLUTION
The air fryer does not work. The appliance is not
plugged in.
Put the mains plug in an
earthed wall socket.
You have not set the timer. Select a frying time with the
time control knob.
The ingredients are not
cooked enough.
The pan is too full. Put smaller batches of food into
the pan.
The set temperature is too low. Set a higher temperature with
the temeprature control knob.
The food is fried unevenly. Certain foods need to be
shaken halfway through the
cooking cycle.
Food that lies on top of each
other (e.g. fries) need to be
shaken halfway through the
preparation time.
Fried snacks are not crispy
when they come out of the
Air Fryer.
You might have used a type of
snack meant to be prepared in
a traditional deep fat fryer.
Use oven snacks or lightly brush
some oil onto the snacks for a
crispier result.
I cannot slide the pan into the
appliance properly.
There is too much food in
the pan.
Do not ll the pan beyond the
MAX indication.
White smoke comes out of
the appliance.
You are cooking greasy
food.
When you fry greasy food in the
Air fryer, a large amount of oil
will leak into the pan. The oil
produces white smoke and the
pan may heat up more than
usual. This does not affect the
appliance or the end result.
The pan still contains grease
residues from a previous use.
White smoke is caused by
grease heating up in the pan.
Make sure you clean the pan
properly after each use.
Fresh fries are fried unevenly in
the Air Fryer.
You might have not used the
right potato type.
Use fresh potatoes and make
sure they stay rm during frying.
The potato sticks weren’t
properly rinsed before
frying them.
Rinse the potato sticks properly
to remove the starch from them.
