home-made fries
To make home-made fries, follow the steps below:
1. Peel the potatoes and cut them into sticks.
2. Wash the potato sticks thoroughly and dry them with kitchen paper.
3. Pour half a tablespoon in a bowl and place the sticks on top. 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 basket in one go. Any excess oil will end up on the bottom of the pan.
5. Fry the potato sticks according to the instructions in this chapter.
tips
• To reduce the weight, you can remove the basket from the pan and shake just the basket. To do so, pull the pan out of the
appliance, place it on a heat-resistant surface and press the button of the handle.
• If you set the timer to half the preparation time, you hear the timer signal when you have to shake the ingredients. However, this
means that you have to set the timer again to the remaining preparation time after shaking.
• If you set the timer to full preparation time, there is no timer signal during cooking before finishing, you can pull out the pan at any
time to check the ingredients cooking condition, the power will shut down automatically and resume after sliding the pan back into
the appliance (Attention: the timer still is counting down).

cleaning & maintenance
Clean the appliance after every use.
Before cleaning the air fryer, leave it to cool down completely.
Do not touch the hot metal inside before cleaning immediately after frying.
Do not use metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials to clean the pan, the basket or the separator, as this may
damage the non-stick coating.
1. Unplug the appliance and leave the air fryer to cool down completely.
Note: remove the pan to let the air fryer cool down more quickly.
2. Wipe the outside of the appliance with a moist cloth.
3. Clean the pan, the basket and the separator with hot water, some washing-up liquid and a non-abrasive sponge. The pan, the
basket and the separator are dishwasher-safe.
A degreasing liquid can be used to remove any remaining dirt.
Note: fill the pan with hot water and some washing-up liquid and let it soak for 10 minutes to remove tough dirt.
4. Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water and a soft sponge.
5. Clean the heating element with a soft cleaning brush to remove any food residues. Do not use washing-up liquid. This can give a
tang to the ingredients.
Never immerse the appliance, power cord and plug in water or any other liquid to protect against electrical hazards.
Before storing the air fryer, let the appliance completely cool down and unplug it. Check whether all the parts are clean and dry. Store
the air fryer in a clean and dry place.
