Useful Hints for Use
• This device is used for the preparation of solid foods. Do
not prepare any soups or liquid foodstuffs in it.
• A safety switch prevents the use of the device without a
basket with the fat tank.
• To achieve an optimum result, you must fi ll the basket
up to a maximum of 1 cm below the rim. Never overfi ll
the basket, so that the food does not touch the heating
element.
• Never put oil or other liquids in the fat tank. In order to
achieve crispy results, you can baste the food with a little
oil.
• Do not prepare the device for high-fat foods (e. g. sausages).
• All foods can be prepared in the device, which are also
suitable for the oven.
• Note that the dough expands during baking of cakes,
bread or similar. Nothing must come into contact with the
heating element.
• Foods that are cooked over one another, must be shaken
after half way through the cooking time. Thus the result is
optimized and prevents uneven cooking.
• The ideal amount for the preparation of crispy French fries
is 700 g.
• Pour water on homemade potato products after cutting at
least 30 minutes to reduce the potato starch. Then dry the
potato pieces with paper.
• The cooking time depends on several factors: Size, con-
dition, quantity of food and set temperature. For standard
values, see "Table of cooking times".
