Using the Appliance

• Place the appliance on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work surface away from water splashes.
• THIS IS AN AIR FRYER AND WORKS ON HOT AIR. DO NOT FILL THE PAN WITH OIL OR FRYING FAT.
• DO NOT PUT ANYTHING ON TOP OF THE APPLIANCE; THIS DISRUPTS THE AIR FLOW AND AFFECTS THE HOT AIR FRYING RESULT.
• Connect the power supply cord to an electrical socket.
• Carefully remove the outer basket using the handle from the fryer, ensuring that the detachable non-stick basket is inside. Do not use the rapid air fryer without the non-stick basket; ensure that it is properly and securely fitted before turning on the rapid air fryer.
• Put your ingredients into the non-stick basket.
• Note: Never fill the basket beyond the MAX indication or exceed the amount indicated in the table, as this could affect the quality of the end result.

Operation Details

• CAUTION: Do not touch the outer basket during and sometime after use, as it gets very hot. Only hold by the handle.
• Turn the temperature control dial to the required temperature.
• To switch on the appliance, turn the timer dial to the required preparation time.
• Add 5 minutes to the preparation time when the appliance is cold. Note: the air fryer will not heat if the timer dial has not been set.
• The red power LED will illuminate and the air fryer will begin to heat up. The red light will not illuminate until the outer basket is fully closed.
• The green LED will turn on when the set temperature has been reached. During frying, the green ready LED will cycle on and off to ensure the desired temperature is maintained.
• Some foods may require shaking halfway through the cooking time. Remove the outer basket by pulling the basket handle out of the hot air fryer. Check that the plastic cover is concealing the basket release button, taking care not to release the detachable non-stick basket. Shake the cooking compartment gently and then slide it back into the air fryer.
• Note: When the drawer is pulled out of the appliance, the red power light and air fryer will turn off. The timer will continue to count down whilst the outer basket is open. The air fryer will resume heating when the drawer is placed securely back into the fryer.
• One beep will sound when the set air frying time has expired.
• Allow cooked food to rest for 5-10 seconds before removing the basket drawer from the air fryer.
• Once the food is cooked, remove the detachable non-stick basket from the outer basket and empty the contents onto a bowl or plate. Use a pair of heat-resistant tongs (not included) if the food is large or fragile. CAUTION: Do not tip food directly into a bowl or onto a plate, as excess oil may collect at the bottom of the cooking compartment; always remove the detachable non-stick basket from the outer basket.
• The air fryer will turn off automatically.
• Both the red power light and green heat-on light will turn off.
• When you have completed all air frying, turn both the temperature control dial to 0 and the timer dial to OFF.
