❐ The drawer, the basket insert and the cooked food are hot after the cooking process!
Use oven gloves when removing the drawer containing the basket insert or removing
the basket insert from the drawer!
❐ The drawer and the basket insert are hot after being removed from the device! Only
ever put them down on a heat-resistant surface!
❐ The device switches off automatically when the drawer containing the basket insert is

❐ Do not place food in the basket insert wrapped in cling fi lm or plastic bags.
❐ Make sure that the food that you would like to prepare does not come into contact
with the heating elements of the device.
This device works with hot air. It is not a conventional fryer in which food is
deep-fried using lots of oil! In general, you can prepare all dishes that can also
be prepared in a conventional fan oven. It is suitable, among other things, for
hot-air grilling of fresh chips and potato wedges, for cooking frozen chips and
other frozen convenience products, and for cooking all kinds of chopped up food
(both fresh vegetables and fresh meat and fresh fi sh). For good results, also
read through the "What You Should Note During Use..." chapter.
1. Place the device on a dry and heat-resistant fl at surface at a safe distance from fl am-
mable objects.
2. Insert the mains plug into a properly installed 220 - 240 volt plug socket.
3. Insert the basket insert into the drawer. It must engage audibly.
4. Place the food which you wish to prepare into the basket insert.
5. Insert the drawer containing the basket insert into the device.
6. Use the temperature control to set a cooking temperature between 80°C and 200°C.
7. Use the timer to set a cooking time to start the cooking process. Set the timer to a time
from 1 – 30 minutes. After the timer has been activated, the operating lamp lights up to
indicate that the device has been switched on. The temperature control lamp also lights
up as soon as the device starts heating up. Please note: The temperature control lamp
goes out and lights up at regular intervals. This is not a malfunction. To maintain a con-
stant temperature, the device heats up or the device stops the heating process at regular
intervals. When the temperature control lamp is lit up, the device is in a heating phase; if
the temperature control lamp goes out, the supply of heat is interrupted for a brief period.
