Introduction
The AIR FRYER makes cooking quick, convenient and most importantly—
healthy. By using rapid hot air convection cooking techologies, the AIR
FRYER evenly circulates hot air to cook fresh or frozen foods, giving them
the same crunchy bite and moist interiors produced by conventional deep
fryers. And food is never submerged in cooking oils or fats while cooking.
The AIR FRYER can bake, broil and steam a wide variety of foods, such as
meats, vegetables, pizzas and even cakes. Get started with the great recipes
that follow—and enjoy!

Using the Appliance
1. Place the appliance on a stable, horizontal and even surface.
2. Remove the pan with the basket in it from the AIR FRYER.
3. Place the ingredients in the basket. NOTE: Do not overll the basket
(for amounts, see “Settings” chart on the inside back cover), as it
may affect the quality of the food.
4. Slide the pan back into the AIR FRYER. Never use the pan without
the basket in it.
Separate the pan (g. 2)
and the basket (g. 3)
by pressing the Basket
Release Button (g. 4)
at the top of the basket
handle. Whenever removing the pan from the AIR
FRYER, ALWAYS place the
pan on a counter or trivet

5. Turn the temperature control knob to the proper temperature (g.5).
See “Settings” chart on the inside back cover.
6. Determine the required preparation time for the ingredient. See
“Settings” chart on the inside back cover.
7. To switch on the appliance, turn the timer knob to the required
preparation time (g.6). Add 3 minutes to preparation time if the
appliance is cold. NOTE: If you want, you can also preheat the
appliance without any ingredients inside. Turn the timer knob for
more than 3 minutes and wait until the RED heating-up light goes out
(after about 3 minutes). Then ll the basket and turn the timer knob to
the required preparation time.
a. The GREEN power-on light and the RED heating-up light go on.
b. The timer starts counting down the set preparation time.
c. During the cooking cycle, the RED heating-up light will turn off
from time to time. This indicates that the temperature has been
reached.
d. Excess liquid from the ingredients is collected in the bottom of
the pan.
CAUTION: Do not touch the pan during and for 30 minutes after use,
because it gets very hot. Hold the pan ONLY by the handle.
8. Some ingredients require shaking halfway during the preparation
time (see “Settings” chart on the inside back cover). At the halfway
point, pull the pan out of the appliance by the handle and shake it
(g.7). Then slide the pan back into the AIR FRYER. CAUTION:
Do not press the Basket Release Button on the handle while
shaking (g.8).

a. If there is liquid in the pan, remove the basket from the pan
before shaking. To do this, pull the pan out of the appliance.
NOTE: Use caution, as steam may be present. Place it on
a heat-proof surface. Press the basket release button before
shaking the basket (g.9). Return the basket to the pan, and
slide the pan back into the AIR FRYER.
9. When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has elapsed.
Pull the pan out of the appliance and place it on a heat-proof surface.
NOTE: You can also switch off the appliance manually by turning the
temperature control knob to 0.
10. Check to make sure the ingredients are ready. If the ingredients are
not fully cooked, simply slide the pan back into the appliance and set
the timer for a few extra minutes.
11. To remove ingredients, press the basket release button and lift the
basket out of the pan (g.10). The pan and the ingredients are hot
after hot air frying. Depending on the moisture content of the
ingredients in the fryer, steam may escape from the pan.
12. Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate (g.11). To remove
large or fragile ingredients, lift the ingredients out of the basket using
tongs.
13. When a batch of ingredients is ready, the AIR FRYER is instantly
ready for preparing another batch, since it is already pre-heated.

•
Do not place anything on top of the appliance.
•
Do not use the appliance for any purpose other than described in this
manual.
•
Do not let the appliance operate unattended.

the appliance. Wait for the smoke emission to stop before you remove
the pan from the appliance.
•
Do not immerse the housing in water or rinse under the tap due to the
electrical and heating components.
•
Do not let any liquid enter the appliance (aside from cooking liquids
added to the pan) to prevent electric shock or short-circuiting.
•
Keep all ingredients in the basket to prevent contact from heating
elements.
•
Do not cover the air inlets and air outlets when the appliance is working.

Cooking Advice
•
Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter cooking time than
larger ingredients.
•
Shaking smaller ingredients halfway during the preparation time
optimizes the end result and can help prevent unevenly fried
ingredients.
•
A small amount of oil (3–4 tbsp.) can be added to the pan for achieving
a crispy texture. Never overll, as this will damage the AIR FRYER. Use
caution when removing the pan from the unit, as ingredients and oil will
be very hot.
•
A small amount of water (3–4 tbsp.) can be added to the pan for
steaming food. Never overll, as this will damage the AIR FRYER. Use
caution when removing the pan from the unit, as ingredients—and
any remaining steam or water—will be very hot.
•
Because the Rapid Air technology reheats the air inside the appliance
instantly, pulling the pan out of the appliance briey during hot air frying
barely disturbs the process.
•
Frozen foods, such as fries, chicken nuggets and sh sticks can be
prepared by following the “Settings” chart on the inside back cover.
•
Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the
AIR FRYER.
•
Place a glass, silicone or metal oven-safe dish in the AIR FRYER basket
when baking a cake or quiche, or frying fragile or lled ingredients.
•
For a crispy texture, spritz vegetable, olive or non-stick oil over
ingredients in the basket. Process in the AIR FRYER within a few
minutes after adding the oil.
•
You can also use the AIR FRYER to reheat ingredients by setting the
temperature to 300°F for up to 10 minutes.
■ 8
Accessories
•
A set of 8 silicone baking cups. NOTE: 4 can be used in the AIR FRYER
at one time.
•
To protect your work surface, place the hot Basket and/or Pan on the
Silicone Trivet whenever they are removed from the AIR FRYER.
•
While the items are dishwasher safe, hand washing is recommended.
