Settings
The Cooking Guide on the following page will help you to select the basic settings depending on
the food type. Note: Keep in mind that these settings are indicative only. As ingredients differ in
origin, size, shape as well as brand, we cannot guarantee the best setting for your ingredients.

- Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time than larger ingredients.
- Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Place ingredients in the Air Fryer within a few
minutes of adding the oil.
- Do not place 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 on one of the racks 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 150Ԩ for up to 10 minutes.
