The chart in the chapter will help you to select the best settings for the ingredients you want to prepare.  

Attention:

 these settings are indications. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape as well as brand, we cannot guarantee the best 

setting for your ingredients.

Because the rapid hot air technology instantly reheats the air inside the appliance, pulling the pan briefly out of the appliance during 
hot air frying barely disturbs the process. 

TIPS

•  Smaller ingredients usually require a slightly shorter preparation time than larger ingredients.  
•  A larger amount of ingredients only requires a slightly longer preparation time, a smaller amount of ingredients only requires a 

slightly shorter preparation time. 

•  Shaking smaller ingredients a few times starting halfway through the preparation time optimizes the end result and can help 

prevent unevenly fried ingredients. 

•  Do not prepare extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
•  Snacks that can be prepared in a oven can also be prepared in the air fryer.  
•  The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 700 grams. The maximum amount is 1500 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 in the air fryer 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 150°C for up to 10 minutes.
