and shake the basket only. To do so, pull the pan out of the appli-
ance, place it on a heat-resistant surface and press the button of
handle. and lift the basket out of the pan
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 prepa-
ration 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-re-
sistant surface.
Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do
this, turn the time control knob to 0 or pull out the pan directly.

fryer and place it on trial framework, and press the basket release
button and lift the basket out of the pan.

to it, as any excess oil that has collected on the bottom of the
pan will leak onto the ingredients.

the type of the ingredients in the I fryer, steam may 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 by a pair of tongs.

ingredients differ in origin, size, shape as well as brand, we
cannot guarantee the best setting for your ingredients.Because
the Rapid Air technology instantly reheats the air inside the
appliance instantly.
Pull the pan briefly out of the appliance during hot air frying barely
disturbs the process.
Tips
-Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation
time than larger ingredients.
-A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer prepa-
ration time, a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a slightly
shorter preparation time.
-Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time
optimizes the end result and can help prevent unevenly fried ingre-
dients.
-Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredi-
ents in the Hot-air fryer within a few minutes after you added the oil.
-Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in
the Hot-air fryer .
-Snacks that can be prepared in a oven can also be prepared in the
Hot-air fryer

home-made dough.
-Place a baking tin or oven dish in the Hot-air fryer basket if you
want to bake a cake or quiche or if you want to fry fragile ingredi-
ents or filled ingredients
-You can also use the Hot-air fryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat

The ingredients are
fried unevenly in the
air fryer.
Fried snacks are not
crispy when they come
out of the air fryer.
You used a type of
snacks meant to be
prepared in a tradition-
al deep fryer.
Use oven snacks or
lightly brush some oil
onto the snacks for a
crispier result.
Certain types of
ingredients need to be
shaken halfway through

-13-
I cannot slide the pan
into the appliance
properly.
White smoke comes
out of the appliance.
Fresh fries are fried
unevenly in the air
fryer.
Fresh 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.
You are preparing
greasy ingredients.
The pan still contains
grease residues from
previous use.
You did not use the
right potato type.
You did not rinse the
potato sticks properly
before you fried them.
White smoke is caused
by grease heating up
in the pan. Make sure
you clean the pan
properly after each use.
Use fresh potatoes and
make sure they stay
firm during frying.
Rinse the potato sticks
properly to remove
starch from the outside
of the sticks.
Make sure you dry the
potato sticks properly
before you add the oil.
Cut the potato sticks
smaller for a crispier
result.
Add slightly more oil
for a crispier result.
When you fry greasy
ingredients in the air fryer, a
large amount of oil will leak
into the pan. The oil produc-
es white smoke and the pan
may heat up more than usual.
This does not affect the
appliance or the end result.
There are too much
ingredients in the
basket.
The basket is not
placed in the pan
correctly.
Push the basket down
into the pan until you
hear a click.
Do not fill the basket
