Tips
- A smaller amount of food requires a slightly shorter preparation time, a larger amount of food
needs a slightly longer preparation time.
- It is recommended not to fill the fry pot of the air fryer beyond ¾ of its capacity. The maximum
amount of ingredients that can be prepared depends on the kind of food you want to prepare.
- Shaking smaller ingredients halfway through the preparation time optimizes the end result and
can help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
- Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made dough also requires a
shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
- Place a baking tin or oven dish in the air fryer pot if you want to bake a cake or quiche or if you
want to fry fragile ingredients or filled ingredients
- You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat ingredients, set the temperature to
150℃for up to 10 minutes.
- It is suggested to wait some minutes to cool down the machine when you need to start another
cooking after the 1st cooking. Keep heating not more than 1 hour.
- If you use oven-ready snacks, do not add oil because they are usually pre-fried and become
golden brown and crispy when prepared in the air fryer.
- If you use oven-ready snacks and they do not become crispy and stay pale, please check the
following:

a. The amount of ingredients: Put smaller batches of ingredients in the fry pot. Cover the bottom of
the fry pot with just one layer. Smaller batches are fried more evenly.
b. The preparation time: If you have not preheated the appliance before you put in the snacks,
make sure you add 3 minutes extra to the preparation time when you set the timer.
c. Most snacks need the preparation time indicated for the oven to become fully cooked.
d. If your croquettes or snacks burst when you prepare them in the air fryer, choose a shorter
preparation time.
CLEANING
Warning: Let the fry pot, rack and the inside of the appliance cool down completely before you
start cleaning. The pot and the rack are with non-stick coating. Do not use metal kitchen
utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean them, as this may damage the coating.
Clean the appliance after every use. Remove oil and fat from the bottom of the fry pot after every
use to prevent smoke.
1 Switch off the machine, remove the plug from the wall socket and let the appliance cool down for
15 minutes.
Tip: Remove the fry pot to let the air fryer cool down more quickly.
2 Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
3 Clean the fry pot and rack with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a non-abrasive sponge.
Note: The fry pot and rack are dishwasher-proof.
Tip: If food residues are stuck to the fry pot or rack, you can soak them in hot water with washing-
up liquid for 10 to 15 minutes. Soaking will loosen the food residues and will make it easier to
remove them. The quality of your washing-up liquid determines how easy it is to remove food
residues and grease. Make sure you use a washing-up liquid that can dissolve oil and grease. If
there are grease stains on the fry pot or rack and you have not been able to remove them with hot
water and washing-up liquid, use a liquid degreaser.
Tip: You can use a degreasing liquid to remove any remaining dirt.
4 Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge.
Any other servicing should be performed by an authorized service representative.
STORAGE
1 Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
2 Make sure all parts are clean and dry before you store the appliance.
ENVIRONMENT
Do not throw away the appliance with the normal household waste when it is exhausted, but hand
it in at an official collection point for recycling. By doing this, you help to preserve the environment.

TROUBLESHOOTING
This chapter summarizes the most common problems you could encounter with the appliance.
Problem
Possible 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 start
cooking
Press START key to start cooking after
choosing the function
You have not put the fry
pot into the machine
There is a micro switch in machine, no
working if without pot. Just slide in the fry pot
then ok.
Several appliances are
connected to one socket.
Try a different socket and check the fuses.
The air fryer has a power of 1200W.
The outside of the
appliance becomes
hot during use.
The outside of the
appliance becomes hot
because the heat inside
radiates to the outside
walls.
This is normal. The fry pot, rack and the inside
of the fryer will always become hot when the
appliance is switched on to ensure the food is
properly cooked. The fry pot and rack are
always too hot to touch. But the handles,
panel that you need to touch during use will
still stay cool enough to touch.
The ingredients fried
with the air fryer are
not done.
The amount of
ingredients in the fry pot
is too big.
Put smaller batches of ingredients in the fry
pot. Smaller batches are fried more evenly.
The set temperature is
too low.
Adjust the temperature to the required
temperature setting (see ‘food table’).
The preparation time is
too short.
Adjust the cooking time to the required
preparation time (see ‘food table’).
The ingredients are
fried unevenly in the
air fryer.
Certain types of
ingredients need to be
shaken halfway through
the preparation time.
Ingredients that lie on top of or across each
other (e.g. fries) need to be shaken halfway
through the preparation time. See ‘food table’.
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 traditional
deep fryer.
Use oven snacks or lightly brush some oil onto
the snacks for a crispier result.
I cannot slide the pot
into the appliance
properly.
There are too much
ingredients in the pot.
Do not fill the pot beyond ¾ of its capacity.
White smoke comes
out of the appliance.
You are preparing
greasy ingredients.
When you fry greasy ingredients in the air
fryer, a large amount of oil will leak into the
pot. The oil produces white smoke and the fry
pot may heat up more than usual. This does
not effect the appliance or the end result.
The fry pot still contains
White smoke is caused by grease heating up

grease residues from
previous use.
in the pot . make sure you clean the pan
properly after each use.
Fresh fries are fried
unevenly in the air
fryer.
You did not use the right
potato type.
Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay
firm during frying.
You did not rinse the
potato sticks properly
before you fried them.
Rinse the potato sticks properly to remove
starch from the outside of the sticks.
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.
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.
DISPOSAL OF OLD ELECTRICAL APPLIANCES
