Choosing the keep warm mode

1 Press the keep warm button (you can activate the keep warm mode at each
time). (Fig. 41)
» The keep warm indication goes on.
» The keep warm timer is set to 30 minutes. You cannot adjust the keep
warm time. To stop the keep warm mode, simply switch off the appliance.
Tip
• If food like French fries loses crispness during the keep warm mode, please
either shorten the keep warm time by switching off the appliance earlier or
crisp them up for 2-3 minutes at the temperature of 350°F/180°C.
Note
• If you activate the keep warm mode during cooking, the appliance will keep
your food warm for 30 minutes after the cooking time has elapsed.
• During the keep warm mode, the fan and heater inside of the appliance is on
from time to time.
• The keep warm mode is designed to keep your dish warm immediately after it
is cooked in the Airfryer. It is not meant for reheating.

Making home-made fries

To make great home-made fries in the Airfryer:
-
Choose a potato variety suitable for making fries, e.g. fresh, russet potatoes.
- It is best to air fry the fries in portions of up to 500 grams/ 17.5 oz for an even
result. Larger fries tend to be less crispy than smaller fries.
- Shake the basket 2-3 times during the air frying process.
1 Peel the potatoes and cut into sticks (1/2cm / 1/4 in thick).
2 Soak the potato sticks in a bowl of water for at least 30 minutes.
3 Empty the bowl and dry the potato sticks with a dish towel or paper towel.
4 Pour a half tablespoon of cooking oil in the bowl, put the sticks in the bowl and
mix until the sticks are coated with oil.
5 Remove the sticks from the bowl with your fingers or a slotted kitchen utensil so
excess oil remains in the bowl.
Note
• Do not tilt the bowl to pour all the sticks in the basket at once to prevent excess
oil from going into the pan.
6 Put the sticks in the basket.
7 Fry the potato sticks and shake the basket halfway through the air frying
process. Shake 2-3 times if you prepare more than 400 g/14 oz of fries.
Note
• Consult the "Food table" for the right quantities and cooking times.
