Do not fry Asian rice cakes (or similar types of food) in this appliance as this might cause heavy
spattering or violent bubbling of the oil or fat.
7 Carefully insert the basket into the fryer. Do not lower it into the oil or fat.
8 Close the lid. (Fig. 11)
Make sure the lid is properly closed to prevent that hot steam escapes during frying and to
guarantee that the Active Air Control ` system functions optimally.
9 Set the required frying time (see section ‘Timer’ in this chapter). You can also use the fryer
without setting the timer.
10 Press the release button of the basket handle and carefully lower the basket to its lowest
position (Fig. 1).
Stick to the preparation time indicated on the package of the food to be fried or mentioned in
the food table at the end of this booklet.
active air Control `
1 This appliance is equipped with Active Air Control ` , a closed system based on the principle
of condensation that offers a reduction of frying odours by up to 100%. (Fig. 1)
The system condenses the steam produced by frying into water in a continuous process. The
condensed water is collected in a water reservoir in the bottom of the fryer housing.
The condensed water reservoir has a capacity of 750ml, which is enough to hold the quantity of
condensed water resulting from frying 1.6kg frozen French fries.
The level indicator at the front of the reservoir tells you how much water has already been
collected in the water reservoir and the maximum amount it can contain.
Once you have set the”on/off switch to ‘I’, the Active Air Control ` system starts working
and the fan in the rear part of the fryer starts running, to cool down and condense the frying
steam that develops inside the fryer.
The blue System Active light indicates that the Active Air Control ` system works. (Fig. 1)
timer
This appliance is equipped with an electronic timer on the display.
The timer indicates the end of the frying time, but does NOT switch off the fryer.
1 Press the timer button to set the frying time in minutes. The set time becomes visible on the
display (Fig. 15).
Keep the timer button pressed to put the minutes forward quickly. Release the button once
the required frying time has been reached.
The maximum time that can be set is 99 minutes.
Note: If the preset time is not correct, press the timer button for 2 seconds at the moment the timer
starts counting down (i.e. when the time starts to flash) to erase it. Keep the button pressed until ‘00’
appears on the display. You can now set the correct frying time.
A few seconds after you have set the frying time, the timer starts to count down.
While the timer is counting down, the remaining frying time flashes on the display. The last
minute is displayed in seconds.
