POSSIBLE CAUSE
The appliance is not
plugged in.
You have not set the timer.
The amount of ingredients
in the basket is too big.
The set temperature is too
low.
The preparation time is too
short.
Certain types of ingredients
need to be shaken halfway
through the preparation
time.
You used a type of snacks
meant to be prepared in a
traditional deep fryer.
There are too much
ingredients in the basket.
The basket is not placed in
the pan correctly.
You are preparing greasy
ingredients.
The pan still contains
grease residues from
previous use.
You did not use the right
potato type.
You did not rinse the
potato sticks properly
before you fried them.
The crispiness of the fries
depends on the amount of
oil and water in the fries.
SOLUTION
Put the mains plug in an earthed wall socket.
Turn the timer knob to the required
preparation time to switch on the appliance.
Put smaller batches of ingredients in the
basket. Smaller batches are fried more evenly.
Turn the temperature control knob to the
required temperature setting (see section
'settings' in chapter 'Using the appliance').
Turn the timer knob to the required
preparation time (see section 'Settings' in
chapter' Using the appliance').
Ingredients that lie on top of or across each
other (e.g. fries) need to be shaken halfway
through the preparation time. See section
'Settings' in chapter 'Using the appliance'.
Use oven snacks or lightly brush some oil
onto the snacks for a crispier result.
Do not fill the basket beyond the MAX
indication.
Push the basket down into the pan until you
hear a click.
When you fry greasy ingredients in the air
fryer, a large amount of oil will leak into the
pan. The oil produces white smoke and the
pan may heat up more than usual. This does
not affect the appliance or the end result.
White smoke is caused by grease heating
up in the pan . make sure you clean the pan
properly after each use.
Use fresh potatoes and make sure they stay
firm during frying.
Rinse the potato sticks properly to remove
starch from the outside of the sticks.
Make sure you dry the potato sticks properly
before you add the oil.
Cut the potato sticks smaller for a crispier
result.
Add slightly more oil for a crispier result.
