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.
