The chart below indicates which settings should be used for which food. ATTENTION: these settings are merely indicative. Since each ingredient may differ from kind to kind, brand to brand, but also from size, shape, content… it is possible that the indicated settings don’t always entirely correspond. TIPS: - Smaller ingredients often require a shorter baking time than larger ingredients. - Shaking small ingredients during the baking process might improve the final result. (See 4. USE). - Add a little bit of oil on fresh potatoes for a crispier result. Add the oil before putting the ingredients in the baskets. Bake the ingredients within a few minutes after adding the oil. - Snacks that can be prepared in a traditional oven can be prepared in the SnackTastic®. Snacks or fries only meant to be prepared in a deep fryer will not always provide the desired result. - You can use the SnackTastic® to heat up ingredients. To do so, use the reheat function.25

Use a suitable baking tin tin TIP: oven suited food always works, however, the time or temperature needed are less. TIP: If you prefer your appliance pre-heated before starting the desired programme, you can also use the reheat function (180° C - 4 min.) NOTE: * Check if the ingredients are suited for preparation in the oven. ** See 4. Use Homemade fries For the best result, we advise to use prebaked fries (e.g. frozen fries). If you want to make homemade fries, follow steps below.

1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into fries.

2. Soak the fries in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, take them out and dry them properly with some paper

3. Pour ½ spoon of oil in a bowl, add the fries and mix carefully until all fries are equally covered with oil.

4. Remove the fries from the bowl with your hands or a kitchen utensil so redundant oil stays behind in the bowl.

Put the fries in the basket.26 NOTE: don’t pour the fries from the bowl into the basket to avoid the excess oil ending up in the basket.

5. Bake the fries as mentioned earlier.

1. Place the appliance on a stable, flat and heat resistant surface.

CAUTION: Do not put oil or any other liquid in the baskets. CAUTION: Don’t put anything on top of the appliance.

2. Carefully pull the basket out of the appliance.

ATTENTION: do not fill the basket more than 4/5

, or the indicated quantity in the chart above. Larger quantities will provide a less result.

ATTENTION: never touch the baskets during or some time after use. They get really hot. Only touch the baskets by the handle.

5. Put the plug in the socket.

6. Set the desired setting (see chart below).

7. Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the baking process. To shake the food, take the handle,

pull the basket out of the appliance and shake. Then place the basket back into the appliance.

8. Check if the ingredients are ready. If not, put the bask back in the appliance and set a few more minutes.

ATTENTION: After use, the baskets and the ingredients are still very hot. Depending on the type of ingredients steam may escape. TIP: To remove large or fragile food, it is best to use kitchen pincers.

The ingredients are not done. There are too much ingredients in the basket. Put smaller quantities at once in the basket. The set temperature is too low. Increase the temperature. The baking time is too short. Increase baking time.

The ingredients are not equally baked. Some ingredients need to be shaken halfway through the baking process. Shake ingredients which are piled up (f. ex. fries) halfway through the baking process.

The fried ingredients are not crispy. You used snacks only suited for a traditional or a cool zone deep fryer. Use oven snacks or slightly grease the ingredients with oil for crispier result. I cannot slide the basket into the appliance properly. There are too much ingredients in the basket. Fill maximum 4/5 of the basket.

White smoke coming out of the appliance.

You’re using very greasy ingredients. When baking greasy ingredients, the excess oil drips and causes smoke. This will not affect the final cooking result.

There are some residues from prior bakings in the basket. The smoke is caused by greasy residues heating up. Carefully clean the baskets after each use.

Fries are fried unequally. You used the wrong kind of potato. Use another kind of potato. You didn’t use any oil or didn’t spread them equally. Use some oil (see point 4. Homemade fries) Spread them equally in the basket. Color depends on the amount of water and oil in the fries. Carefully dry the fries before you grease them with oil. The fries are not crispy. The crispiness depends on the amount of water and oil in the fries. Cut smaller fries. Grease with a little bit more oil, see point 3.
