Useful hints for air-frying

• The food can be prepared according to the basic setting of the automatic programmes or according to individual settings.
• Note that the cooking times listed are only approximate. Depending on the type of food, the cooking times and temperatures may have to be adjusted.
• With larger quantities, the cooking time increases. We recommend frequent turning of the food.
• If the food turns out too dark, try lowering the temperature first, before shortening the cooking times.
• For nutritious, healthy deep-frying we recommend to use a temperature setting of no higher than 170 °C when deep-frying amylaceous food, i.e. food with a higher-than-average starch content. With the reduced frying temperature, and with an equally reduced amount of food in the frying basket, the build-up of substances detrimental to health is limited to a minimum.

Cleaning and care

• Before cleaning the appliance, ensure that the low fat fryer disconnected from the power supply and has completely cooled down.
• Attention! Risk of electric shock! To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not clean the outside of the fryer or its power cord with any liquids and do not immerse either of them in water.
• Attention! Avoid using harsh or abrasive detergents that can damage the housing and ceramic coating on the frying basket and basket insert during cleaning.
• Attention! All removable parts can be cleaned in the dishwasher. However, we recommend gentle cleaning by hand as the salt in the dishwasher detergent can damage the non-stick coating if cleaned frequently.
• Remove the basket insert from the frying basket using the silicone handle.
• Clean the frying basket and basket insert in hot rinsing water and dry thoroughly.
• Use a damp cloth to wipe the housing and the slot area for the frying basket.
