Possible cause / solution
• Is the mains plug correctly inserted in the plug socket?
• Is the plug socket defective? Try another plug socket.
• Check the fuse of your mains connection.
• Have you set a cooking temperature?
• Have you used the timer to set a cooking time? The device only
switches on once a time has been set!
• Has the drawer been inserted correctly? The device only
works if the drawer has been inserted correctly.
• The device is equipped with a safety mechanism which swit-
ches off the device automatically if it overheats. If the device
switches off automatically during operation, move the timer to
the 0 position and remove the mains plug from the plug socket.

• Has the basket insert resp. the bread baking basket been
overfi lled? Fill the basket insert resp. the bread baking bas-
ket no more than 2/3 full with food.
• Have you used oil? For the preparation of frozen products,
there is generally no need to add any fat as most frozen
products are already prefried!
• Use waxy potatoes. Young potatoes contain more water and
therefore take longer to cook and it is possible that they may
not go as crispy.
• The basket insert is too full, place fewer potatoes into the
device.
• The chips are cut too thick, cut them into thinner pieces.
• If necessary, spray the uncooked potatoes with a little oil
from the oil atomiser as this will make them go crispier.
