Airfryer device Kitfort KT-2217

The principle of operation of the airfryer is based on the convection of air flows from the heater inside the working vessel. The fan, located in the upper part of the airfryer, sets in motion air masses heated to a high temperature by the shade heater. Hot air circulates inside the working tank of the airfryer and heats the food to the required condition.
The products are placed in a basket which is placed inside the pan of the airfryer.
In the airfryer, you can set the timer from 1 to 60 minutes. The temperature is adjustable from 80 to 200 ° C. The timer will automatically turn off the appliance when the set time ends. You can turn off the airfryer yourself by pressing the “Start / Stop” button.

Preparation for work and use

Before first use

Unpack your airfryer and remove all packing material. Wipe the body of the airfryer and the pan with a soft, damp cloth. Wash the basket thoroughly with warm water, detergent and a non-abrasive sponge.
The device is ready for use.
The first time you need to turn on the device for 5 minutes without food, while a specific odor may be released. This is normal and harmless.

Turning on the airfryer

Place the device on a flat, horizontal surface away from heat sources. Do not block the air intake and exhaust openings on the top of the Airfryer, otherwise air circulation will be impaired, which could affect the hot air cooking process.
At least 20-30 cm of free space should be left behind the airfryer so that the hot air coming out of the holes does not melt objects that are too close. Avoid installing the airfryer near curtains, curtains, various fabrics, paper and other flammable materials.
Connect the power cord to a power source. A beep will sound, the display will light up for a couple of seconds and then go out. The On / Off button will flash.

Using the airfryer

• Pull the bottom out of the airfryer. Put the products in the shopping cart.
  Attention! Never put too many products in the shopping cart.
  Note. It is better to lay the ingredients not tightly to each other, but on the contrary, so that there is as much space between them as possible. In this case, cooking will be more efficient. You can oil or grease the product itself before placing it in the basket.
• Insert the tray with the basket into the airfryer body until you hear a click. A beep will sound when inserting and removing the pallet.
• Press the On / Off button, the rest of the control panel buttons will be displayed.
• Press the "Temperature" button or the "Timer" button once, and then use the "More" and "Less" buttons to set the desired temperature or time.
• Press the Start / Stop button. An audible signal sounds, the display alternates between the default settings: time 15 min and temperature 180 ° C. Set the desired cooking time and temperature if necessary.
  Note.You can change the temperature and time during cooking.
• You can choose one of 6 preset cooking programs.
• Press the "Start / Stop" button to start the cooking process. The display will show the current temperature, the time until the end of cooking.
  The display will also show a closed lock Q and a running fan indicator.
  Excess grease from food is collected at the bottom of the pan.
  Note. You can preheat your airfryer. This is especially recommended for baking. To do this, press the “Start / Stop” button, set the timer time to 5 minutes, press the “Start / Stop” button again and wait until the airfryer turns off. Then put the food in the basket and start the cooking process. You can also add 5 minutes to the cooking time if the airfryer has not been preheated.
• Take out food from time to time, shake it or turn it over during cooking. This is necessary to make the dish crispy and have an even color. To do this, remove the basket with the tray from the airfryer by the handle and shake it. When the drip tray is removed from the appliance, the cooking process will automatically pause. After returning the tray to the airfryer, the cooking process will resume. By shaking, you can see the degree of readiness of the products.
  Attention! When shaking the food, do not accidentally press the basket eject button, otherwise the basket may fall out from under the don.
• At the end of the set cooking time, the airfryer will beep and turn off the heating element. Remove the pallet from the device and place it on a heat-resistant surface.
  Note. You can also force the cooking process to end. To do this, press the "Start / Stop" button.
• If the food is not yet ready, put the bowl back and set the timer for a few more minutes.
  Note. Steam may be emitted from the airfryer when cooking certain types of food.
• Gently transfer the finished dish to a plate or other container. Do not turn the basket upside down until it is separated from the drip tray, as fat collected in the bottom of the drip tray will spill onto the food. If the pieces are large, use tongs.
  Attention! Do not leave cooked food in the basket or under the bottom, as this could damage the non-stick coating.
  After a portion of food is ready, the heated airfryer is ready for the next portion.

Cooking tips

In advertising, the airfryer is often photographed with a full bowl of the finished product. It is not possible to cook a full bowl of food; each food has its own bookmarking rate.
Some tips about cooking and non-stick coating:

• The non-stick coating is not an independent protection against the adhesion of burnt food, since there are irregularities and micro-relief on the surface of the coating, due to which the food can burn and stick.
  Therefore, before each use of the airfryer, grease the basket and drip tray with a silicone brush dipped in vegetable oil. This will eliminate food sticking and increase the life of the non-stick coating.
• Small ingredients require less cooking time.
• We recommend shaking the food halfway through the cooking time. To do this, set the timer for half the time, and after shaking, for the remaining time.
• When cooking fresh potatoes, add oil to make them crispy:
  
  • peel the potatoes and cut them in any way;
  • Soak potato slices in water for at least 30 minutes, then remove and dry with a kitchen napkin;
  • take a container and add half a tablespoon of oil to it;
  • add potatoes to the container and stir with oil, but this is not necessary. You can spread the egg on the potatoes;
  • remove the potatoes from the container and place them in the basket of the airfryer;
  • stir the potatoes several times during cooking, depending on how many layers of potatoes you are placing.
  Attention! If you put the sliced ​​potatoes in two layers and set the time to 20-25 minutes, then in the middle of cooking you can pull out the pan once, shake the potatoes or stir them. If you put potatoes in 3 layers, then you need to pull out 3-4 times under the don during cooking and mix the products. If the potatoes are laid in 4 layers, then stir more often, and increase the cooking time to 35 minutes. More layers will not cook. The air in the airfryer blows only the outermost pieces, the pieces in the middle are not cooked or are cooked more slowly, that is, without stirring, the food will cook unevenly: the potatoes will be cooked from above, below and from the edges, and in the center inside it will be still harsh or damp. The more layers, the worse and longer the inner layers cook, the more often you need to stir the potatoes and cook them longer.
• To oil larger foods (such as drumsticks or cuts of meat):
  
  • dry food with a tea towel if necessary;
  • Lightly oil the food or use a spray bottle. The oil is applied in one layer. If there is a lot of oil, it will drip into the pan during cooking.
• When cooking bread crumbs, be sure to add some oil to the bread crumbs for a crisp finish.
• In order not to grease a dish of meat or poultry with oil, it can be marinated.
• Only add oil when cooking with fresh, unprepared ingredients (such as freshly peeled potatoes or raw chicken). The oil will enhance the flavor of the dish and create a crispy crust.
• Do not add too much oil, as this can make the crust less crispy and the food greasy.
• When cooking foods that are too fat, such as sausages or fatty meats, white smoke may come out of the bowl. These foods can be breaded to prevent the fat from dripping into the bowl. You can also remove the fat from the bowl with a paper towel while cooking.
• Try to choose foods that are low in fat. Foods that are high in fat are harder to cook with a crispy crust.
• Small baked goods, muffins, filled meals, or other fragile ingredients can be cooked on parchment paper or aluminum foil on a basket. Try to use as little paper or foil as possible so that there is room for air circulation around the food. Paper and foil should never go beyond the edges of the basket.
• Do not put baking paper and aluminum foil in the tray where grease and dirt can accumulate. Air circulation will decrease and the cooking process will become less efficient.
• Ready-made commercial dough bakes faster than homemade dough.
• You can use your Airfryer to make toast. To do this, place the toast on a basket and set the timer to 5 minutes and the temperature to 200 ° C.
• Preheat the appliance for 5 minutes before baking.
• You can use the airfryer to heat food. To do this, set the temperature to 150 ° C and the timer to 5-10 minutes.

Cleaning and maintaining the airfryer

Always clean the device after use.
Unplug the airfryer before cleaning and wait until it has completely cooled down. For faster cooling of the appliance, remove the tray with the basket from it.
Clean the basket and drip tray immediately after cooking oily food. Put on gloves, grab a large amount of paper towels, and blot the oil on the bottom of the bottom. If the fat is allowed to cool, it can thicken and be difficult to remove from the surface under the bottom.
The basket and drip tray are non-stick coated, so do not use sharp metal objects or aggressive or abrasive detergents or scouring pads for cleaning. Remember that the cover is easily damaged.
Attention! Do not immerse the basket in water or under running water immediately after preparation. Due to the sudden temperature changes, the non-stick coating may peel off. Wait until they have cooled to room temperature before cleaning. Wash with warm water, mild detergent and a sponge.
Do not wash the basket and tray in the dishwasher: chemicals and high water pressure in the dishwasher can cause the non-stick coating to peel off. Use a wooden or rubber spatula to remove coarse food debris.
If dirt sticks to the basket or to the bottom of the bottom, fill them with hot water with the addition of detergent, and leave them in the water for about 10 minutes, do not leave for a long time, as the non-stick coating may be damaged by this. Clean the inside of the device under hot water and using a non-abrasive sponge.
If the grease stains in the basket cannot be removed with detergent, use a liquid degreaser.
Do not immerse the device in water or other liquids, or wash it under running water. Wipe the outer surfaces of the Airfryer with a damp cloth.

Care and storage

Before storing, wash the basket and pallet and dry them. Unplug the power cord from the cabinet and wipe the cabinet with a damp and then dry cloth. Assemble the Airfryer. Make sure all parts are in place, clean and dry.
Before each preparation, grease the basket with a silicone brush dipped in vegetable oil. This will help preserve the non-stick coating.
Store your Airfryer in a cool, dry place out of the reach of children.
