Frequently Asked Questions - FR9000 Concept

How to prepare the air fryer for first use?

Before first use, wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and wash the baskets, grids and tray in warm water with a little detergent. Dry thoroughly before replacing.

Can I use oil in this air fryer?

No, this air fryer works without oil. Hot air fries the food. You can add a small amount of oil to improve crispiness, but never fill the baskets with oil.

How to adjust the temperature and cooking time?

Select the desired basket or drawer (LEFT, RIGHT or LOWER buttons). Press the temperature/time selection button, then use the + and - buttons to adjust. Temperature adjusts in 5 °C increments, time in 1 minute increments.

Why doesn't the air fryer turn on?

What to do if white smoke comes out of the air fryer?

White smoke may come from grease residues in the basket. Clean the baskets thoroughly after each use. If cooking fatty foods, this is normal. If smoke persists, stop the appliance and contact an authorized center.

How to clean the baskets and drawer?

Let the appliance cool for at least 30 minutes. Wash the baskets, grids and tray in hot water with dish soap and a non-abrasive sponge. For stubborn residues, let soak for 10 minutes. Do not put them in the dishwasher.

Press the light on/off button (11) to turn on the light inside the baskets. Press again to turn it off.

What to do if the fries are not crispy?
