Using the Appliance: Hot Air Frying
Connect the mains plug into an earthed wall socket. Pull out the frying pot. Place the frying grills in the pot. Do not fill the pot with oil or any other liquid. Do not put anything on top of the appliance, as this disrupts airflow. Add ingredients to the pot. Push the pot back into the appliance, aligning with the guides. Never use the pot without the frying grill. Caution: The pot is very hot during and after use; hold only by the handles.
Determine the required preparation time (see Settings). Some ingredients require shaking halfway through cooking (pull out pot, shake, push back in). A beep sound indicates the set preparation time has ended. You can adjust temperature or time during use; settings are stored for 60 minutes after removing the pot. Check if ingredients are ready; if not, reset the timer. To remove ingredients, pull out the pot and place it on a heat-resistant surface. Do not turn the pot upside down. Be careful of hot pot, ingredients, and steam. Use tongs or other tools to transfer food.
