- Never touch the main unit and the connecting cable with wet hands when the device is connected to the mains power.
If the main unit falls into water while it is connected to the mains power, pull the mains plug out of the plug socket immediately. Only after this should you retrieve the main unit from the water. Never attempt to pull it out of the water while it is connected to the mains power! Before using it again, have it checked by the manufacturer, customer service department or an authorised distributor in order to avoid possible hazards.

WARNING - Danger of Fire

• Do not pour any liquids (e.g. oil or water) directly into the device or place a liquid-filled vessel into the device. It works exclusively with hot air.
• Do not operate the device in the vicinity of combustible substances. Do not place any combustible materials (e.g. cardboard, paper, plastic) on or in the device.
• Do not cover the device during operation and keep the ventilation openings clear in order to prevent it from catching fire.
  In the event of a fire: Do not extinguish with water! Smother the flames with e. g. a fireproof blanket.

WARNING - Danger of Injury

• Keep the packaging material away from children and animals. There is a danger of suffocation.
  Make sure that the connecting cable is always kept out of the reach of young children and animals. There is a danger of strangulation.

Hot steam can escape from the device during operation and when the drawer is pulled out. You should therefore keep your head and hands out of the danger zone. There is a danger of scalding from heat, hot steam or condensation.
The device must not be moved during operation. There is a danger of burns.

NOTICE - Risk of Damage to Material and Property

Make sure that the steam which emerges does not come into direct contact with electrical devices and equipment containing electrical components.
If a fault occurs during operation, pull out the mains plug. Otherwise always switch off the device first before the mains plug is pulled out of the plug socket.
- Disconnect the device from the mains power before a thunderstorm or when there is a power cut.
Always pull the mains plug and never the mains cable when disconnecting the device from the mains power.
- Do not pull or carry the device by the connecting cable.
- Protect the device from other heat sources, flames, persistent moisture, direct sunlight or impacts.
- Keep the device in a dry place at temperatures of between 0 and 40^ .
- Never place objects on the device or the connecting cable.
Use only original accessories from the manufacturer in order to guarantee that there is no interference that may prevent the device from working and to avoid possible damage.
- Do not use any sharp-edged objects to turn or remove the food. They could damage the coating.

SET-UP AND CONNECTION

Please Note!

Check the device and the connecting cable for damage each time before putting it into operation. The device should only be used when it is undamaged and in working order.
- Never place the device on a soft surface. The ventilation openings on the bottom of the device must not be covered.
- Ensure there is sufficient clear space on all sides. Do not place the device below kitchen wall units or similar cupboards. The rising steam could cause damage to them!
- Do not connect the device along with other consumers (with a high wattage) to a multiple socket in order to prevent overloading and a possible short circuit (fire).
Make sure that the connecting cable does not present a trip hazard. It should not hang down from the surface on which the device is placed in order to prevent the device from being pulled down.
Make sure that the connecting cable is not squashed, bent or laid over sharp edges and does not come into contact with hot surfaces (e.g. of the device).
Only connect the device to a plug socket that is properly installed and matches the technical data of the device. The plug socket must also be readily accessible after connection so that the connection to the mains can quickly be isolated.
Do not use any extension cables.

1. Place the device on the kitchen unit or another dry, clean, flat and heat-resistant work surface. Ensure there is sufficient clear space on all sides (at least 20cm to the sides and 50~cm above).
2. Fully unwind the connecting cable and plug the mains plug into a plug socket.

BEFORE INITIAL USE

Please Note!

The device should be used for the first time without any food in it as it may produce some smoke or odours due to coating residues.

1. Allow the device to heat up on the highest temperature setting for approx. 10 minutes without any food in it. To do this, follow the instructions in the "Set-Up and Connection" and "Use" chapters.
2. Clean all accessories with detergent and warm water.

ACCESSIONS

Drawer

The food is prepared in the drawer (7). It must be inserted in the cooking chamber (4) when the device is put into operation.

Insert Rack

The insert rack (5) should be inserted in the drawer (7) when the device is in use so that the air circulation function is not impaired. When you insert it, make sure that the arrows marked on the insert rack and in the drawer (Picture A) are aligned.

A small casserole or baking tin can also be placed on the insert rack for baking.

USE

Please Note!

• Do not use the device if it has malfunctioned, fallen or been dropped into water. Have it checked in a specialist workshop before using it again.
• Do not place food that is still wrapped in cling film or plastic bags in the device.
  Make sure that the food does not come into contact with the heating element of the device.

• Do not overfill the drawer so that the hot air can circulate optimally inside the cooking chamber. Fill it no more than half full.
  Make sure that foodstuffs containing oil and fats are not overheated. They could ignite.
  Always place down the drawer and the insert rack if applicable on a heat- resistant surface after use.

• The cooking time is dependent on the size and quantity of the food and on the temperature. Start with a shorter cooking time and gradually increase it if required.

• When preparing mass-produced frozen products, you should follow the times and temperatures specified by the manufacturer. Check whether your food is fully cooked before the stated cooking time has expired.

• With some food (e.g. chips and similar items), it is advisable to mix the food around from time to time to obtain an even cooking result.

• Get ready the food that is to be prepared.

• Place the insert rack (5) in the drawer (7).
• Place the food in the drawer.
• Slide the drawer all the way into the cooking chamber (4).

DISPOSAL

Dispose of the packaging material in an environmentally friendly manner so that it can be recycled.

The adjacent symbol (crossed-out bin underlined) means that used devices should not be disposed of in the domestic waste, but should instead be taken to special collection and return systems.

Owners of used devices from private households can take them free of charge to the collection points of the public waste disposal authorities or the disposal points which are set up by manufacturers and distributors under the Electrical Equipment Act so that they can be disposed of in an environmentally friendly way and valuable raw materials can be recovered. If they are not disposed of properly, toxic ingredients may escape into the environment and cause harm to the health of humans, animals and plants. Businesses which market electrical and electronic devices are also obliged to take back used devices.

Waste prevention makes an even more valuable contribution to protecting the environment. This means if possible, as well as continuing to use or repair a device yourself, passing it on to another user also represents an ecologically beneficial alternative to disposal.
