This appliance is equipped with a timer. When the timer has counted down to 0, the
appliance produces a BEEP sound and switches off automatically. To switch off the
appliance manually, press “Power” to shut down the unit.
Note: Pressing “Start/Pause” only pauses the air frying process, the unit will NOT be
switched off.

Before First Use

1. Remove all packing material.
2. Remove any stickers or labels from the appliance – other than the rating label.
3. Thoroughly clean the basket, and frying tray, with warm water and some liquid
washing soap using a non-abrasive sponge.

resistant.
2. Place the crisper rack in the frying tray properly.

Do not fill the frying tray with oil or any other liquid.
Do not put anything on top of the appliance. This disrupts the airflow and affects the
air-frying result.

5
Using the Appliance
1. Power on

When plugging the unit into a wall outlet there will be a beep sound and the
power button will illuminate RED.
Now press the power button and the unit control panel will light up ready for
use.

2. Setting zone, cooking time and temperature:

Select the cooking zone (left or right tray) by pressing button 1 (left side) or
2 (right side).

Then press one of the 11 pre-set cooking modes (food icons) which will input
both the time and temperature automatically. At this stage you can freely edit
both cooking time and temperature if you wish by using Time and
Temperature buttons. Both temperature and cooking time are alternated
between constantly on each display to show the current settings.

Note: If the zone buttons ( 1 or 2) stop flashing, setting mode has timed out (10
seconds max) press zone 1 or 2 again to continue the setting function if needed.

Now if required, select the other cooking zone by pushing button 1 for left tray or
2 for right tray and repeat as above to set for the food being cooked in that zone.
If only using one zone (one cooking tray side) this stage can be skipped.

Press the Start/Pause button to begin the cooking cycle.

When either side reaches a time of “00” a cooling cycle starts for 60 seconds and
the display will remain at “00”, after which beeps will sound and the display will
show “---” indicating the cooking cycle is over.

Match cook
As an option If you are intending to use both zones (both trays) to cook with
identical time and temperature, (usually if cooking the same food type in both
sides), simply push the “Match Cook” button instead of the zone 1
and 2 buttons described in section 2 above. Now any pre-set cooking modes
and any edits to time or temperature will be duplicated in both cooking zones
(both sides) saving time setting them individually.

6
Smart Finish

If you are intending to use both zones (both trays) to cook with different cooking
times (usually if cooking different food types in each side). Smart Finish will
automatically delay the start of the shortest cycle so that both zones finish at the
same time.
To use smart Finish press the Smart Finish button first just after switching
the unit on, it will flash to show it is active, then proceed to set the zone 1 and
zone 2 in the same way as described in section 2 above.

Pre-Heat/Manual
The Pre-Heat button is simply an extra cooking pre-set mode and can be used
in the same way as any of the pre-set modes (food icons) as described in section 2
above. The Pre-Heat pre-set mode sets the time to 3 minutes and the temperature
to 180°C. As with the other pre-set modes this can also be edited and used as a
Manual setup mode for time and temperature. To Do this, Select the cooking zone
(left or right tray) by pressing button 1 or 2 . Select the Pre-Heat/Manual
button , you can now freely edit both cooking time and temperature. Both
temperature and cooking time are alternated between constantly on each display
to show the current settings.

Making home-made fries

For the best results, we advise to use pre-baked fries. If you want to make home-
made fries, follow the steps below:
1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
2. Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes, take them out
and dry them with kitchen paper.
3. Pour 1/2 tablespoon of olive oil in a bowl, put the sticks on top and mix until the
sticks are coated with oil.
4. Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a kitchen utensil so that
excess oil stays behind in the bowl. Put the sticks in the basket.
Note: Do not tilt the bowl to put all the sticks in the frying tray in one go, to
prevent excess oil from collecting at the bottom of the frying tray.
5. Fry the potato sticks according to the instructions in this chapter.

12
Cleaning
Clean the appliance after every use.
The frying tray, Crisper rack and the inside of the appliance have a non-stick coating.
Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean them, as
this may damage the non-stick coating.
1. Remove the mains plug from the wall socket and let the appliance cool down.
Note: Remove the frying tray to let the air fryer cool down more quickly.
2. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
3. Clean the frying tray and Crisper rack with hot water, some washing liquid soap
and a non-abrasive sponge.
You can use a degreasing liquid to remove any remaining dirt.
Note: The frying tray and basket are dishwasher-proof.

Tip: If dirt is stuck to the crisper rack, or at the bottom of the frying tray, fill the
frying tray with hot water and with some washing liquid soap. Put the crisper rack in
the frying tray and let the frying tray and the crisper rack soak for approximately 10
minutes.

1. Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a non-abrasive sponge.
2. Clean the heating element with a cleaning brush to remove any food residues.

Storage
1. Unplug the appliance and let it cool down.
2. Make sure all parts are clean and dry.
