cooking time accordingly. If the food is cooked, remove the non-stick-coated cooking basket from
the cooking compartment and empty the contents into a bowl or onto a plate. Use a pair of heat-
resistant tongs (not included) if the food is large or fragile.
Note: Always preheat the hot-air fryer before starting to cook, or, alternatively, add approx. 3–5
minutes onto the cooking time. If the cooking time or temperature setting needs to be changed
during use, simply use the timer or temperature control dials as required; the hot-air fryer will
automatically adopt the new settings. During use, the orange heat-indicator light will turn on and
off, signalling that the hot-air fryer is maintaining the selected temperature.
Caution: Do not tip the food directly into a bowl or onto a plate, as excess oil may collect at the
bottom of the cooking compartment and get onto ingredients. Always remove the non-stick-coated
cooking basket from the cooking compartment.
Warning: Nominal voltage is still present even when the thermostat is turned to the off position. To
permanently switch off the hot air fryer, turn it off at the mains power supply.
Warning: Never press the cooking-basket-release button if the cooking compartment is elevated,
as this could cause injury; only press it once the cooking compartment has been placed onto a flat,
stable surface.
