Settings

The table on the next page will help you to select the basic settings for the ingredients.

Note: Keep in mind that these settings are indications, as ingredients differ in origin, size, shape and brand, we cannot guarantee the best settings for your ingredients. Because the Rapid Air technology instantly reheats the air inside the appliance instantly, opening the door briefly during hot air frying barely disturbs the process.

Tips: 

  • The preparation time will depend on the size of your ingredients. Smaller sizes may require a shorter cooking time.
  • Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the Hot-air fryer within a few minutes after you added the oil.
  • Be cautious of using extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
  • Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer.
  • The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 700 grams.
  • Use pre-made dough to prepare filled snacks quickly and easily. Pre-made dough also requires a shorter preparation time than home-made dough.
  • Place a baking tin or oven dish if you want to bake a cake or quiche, or if you want to fry fragile ingredients or filled ingredients.
  • You can also use the air fryer to reheat ingredients. To reheat ingredients, set the temperature to 150°C for up to 10 minutes.

Using the accessories

This air fryer comes complete with a range of accessories:

  • Drip tray, to help collect fat and drippings for easy cleaning.
  • Air flow racks, suitable for crisping or reheating food items.
  • Rotisserie Bar, for use with roast meat or fish.
  • Handle, for safely retrieving the above accessories from the fryer after cooking.

Assembling the Rotisserie Bar

  1. To assemble the Rotisserie Bar, first slide the shaft through the corresponding slots on either of the roasting forks, so that the forks are on the inside of the bar.
  2. Retrieve the two small keys provided with the unit and thread each of them through its corresponding hole on the rotisserie forks. Rotate each key clockwise to tighten it and secure the forks to the main body of the bar. Rotate each key counter-clockwise to loosen it, so that it sits loosely on its  corresponding slot or can be removed if desired.
  3. Once you have loosened each of the two keys, slot the rotisserie bar into therecessed gear notch on the left-hand side of the oven cavity and the locatingbracket on the right-hand side, ensuring it is pushed in all the way. When it has been correctly fitted to the gear and bracket,, insert the keys back into each  of their respective slots and turn them clockwise to tighten them and secure the bar into place.
  4. Your Rotisserie Bar is now ready for use.

Using the Rotisserie Bar 

To use the Rotisserie Bar, align the two nuts on either side of the rotisserie bar with the recessed gear notch on the left-hand side of the oven cavity and the locating bracket on the right-hand side. Slide the left-hand end of the rotisserie bar along the fryer wall until it slots into place inside the gear notch, then place the other end onto the locating bracket. Ensure both ends are firmly secured into place before attempting to use the rotisserie bar.

Note: Ensure the rotisserie bar is pushed all the way into the gear slot and that no part of it is visible to the naked eye; otherwise the bar will not rotate.

  • Once you have installed the bar, press the key in the unit’s control panel to activate the rotation function. If the bar has been installed correctly, it will begin to rotate.
  • If the bar does not begin to rotate once the button has been pressed, pull it out of the air fryer and repeat the steps detailed above, taking care to ensure the rotisserie bar is pushed all the way into the slot on the body of the fryer.

Troubleshooting

Problem Possible cause Solution
The air fryer does not work The appliance is not plugged in. Plug the appliance into an earthed wall socket.
The timer is not set. Turn the timer dial to the required preparation time to switch on the appliance.
The fried ingredients are not done. The amount of ingredients is too big. Put smaller batches of ingredients in the air fryer. Smaller batches are fried more evenly.
The set temperature is too low. Turn the temperature control dial to the required temperature setting (refer to the ‘Settings’ section under ‘Using the appliance’ for a temperature reference guide.)
The preparation time is too short. Turn the timer dial to the required preparation time (refer to the ‘Settings’ section under ‘Using the appliance’ for a timer reference guide.)
Fried snacks are not crispy when they come out of the air fryer. Wrong type of snacks used. Use oven snacks or lightly brush some oil onto the snacks for a crispier result.

The potato sticks were not rinsed adequately before

frying.
