non-heat-resistant surface.
2. Place the basket in the drawer.
3. Do not fill the drawer with oil or any other liquid.

frying will be affected as a result.
Automatic Switch Off:
The Tower Air Fryer has a built-in timer, which will automatically shut down the Air Fryer when the
timer reaches zero. You can manually switch off the Air Fryer by turning the temperature and timer
dial anti-clockwise to zero.
Air Fryer Drawer Safety Switch:
For your safety, this air fryer contains a safety switch in the drawer designed to keep if from
accidentally turning on when the frying basket and drawer are not properly situated inside the
appliance and the timer is not set. Before using the air fryer, please ensure that the basket is inside
of the drawer, the drawer is fully closed and the cooking timer has been set.
Removing the Frying Basket:
The drawer and frying basket can both be removed fully from the Air Fryer. Pull on the handle
to slide the drawer and frying basket out of the Air fryer. Push the handle release button cover
forwards. There is a small button on the top of the handle. Push it down and lift upwards to remove
the frying basket from the drawer.
Air Frying:
1. Connect the mains plug into an earthed wall socket.
2. Carefully pull the drawer out of the Air Fryer.
3. Put the ingredients in the basket.
4. Slide the drawer back into the Air Fryer making sure to carefully align with the guides in the
body of the fryer.
5. Never use the drawer without the basket in it.
CAUTION! Do not touch the drawer immediately after use, as it gets very hot. Allow plenty of time
for it to cool. Only hold the drawer by the handle.
6. Determine the required preparation time for the ingredient. (Refer to the Settings Table.)
7. To switch on the appliance, turn the timer dial to the required preparation time.
8. Turn the temperature control dial to the required temperature. (refer to the Settings Table.)
as a guide when determining the right temperature. Add 3 minutes to the preparation time
when the appliance is cold.
Note: If you wish, you can also preheat the appliance without any ingredients inside. In this case,
turn the timer dial to a time higher than 3 minutes and wait until the heating-up light goes out.
Then fill the basket and turn the timer dial to the required preparation time.
a. The timer will begin counting down the set preparation time.
b. During the hot air frying process, the working light will come on and go out from time to
time. This indicates that the heating element is switching itself on and off to maintain the set
temperature.
c. Excess oil from the ingredients is collected on the bottom of the drawer.

9. Some ingredients require shaking halfway through the preparation time. (Refer to the Settings
Table.) for more information on this). To shake the ingredients, pull the drawer out of the
appliance by the handle and shake it. Then slide the drawer back into the fryer.
CAUTION! Be careful not to press the basket release button on the handle while shaking your
ingredients.
Tip: To reduce the weight, you can remove the basket from the drawer and shake it individually. To
do so, pull the drawer out of the appliance, place it on a heat-resistant surface and press the handle
release button to lift the basket out of the drawer.
Tip: If you set the timer to half the preparation time, the timer bell will sound to indicate when you
have to shake the ingredients. However, this means that you have to set the timer again to the
remaining preparation time after shaking.
10. When you hear the timer bell, the set preparation time has elapsed. Pull the drawer out of the
appliance and place it on a suitable work surface.
Note: You can also switch off the appliance manually. To do this, simply turn the timer control dial to
0.
11. Check if the ingredients are ready. If the ingredients are not ready yet, simply slide the drawer
back into the appliance and set the timer to a few extra minutes. To remove ingredients (e.g.
fries), pull the drawer out of the Air Fryer and place it on a suitable surface, then press the
basket release button and lift the basket out of the drawer. Do not turn the basket upside
down with the drawer still attached to it, as any excess oil that has collected on the bottom
of the drawer will leak onto the ingredients. Both the drawer and ingredients will be very hot.
Depending on the type of ingredients in the fryer, steam may escape from the drawer so care
is needed.
12. Empty the basket into a bowl or onto a plate.
Tip: To remove large or fragile ingredients, lift the ingredients out of the basket with a pair of tongs.
13. Whenever a batch of ingredients finishes cooking, the Air Fryer will be ready for preparing
another batch straight away.
Timer:
The Air Fryer has a 60 minute manual timer with a bell. Turn the dial to set the required cooking
time. When the cooking time has elapsed, a bell will sound to indicate that cooking has finished.
Temperature Selection:
To manually select the correct temperature for each dish, turn the temperature dial. Turn this dial
clockwise to increase the temperature or counter-clockwise to decrease it.
Settings:
The table on the next page will help you select the basic settings for a variety of common
ingredients.
Note: Keep in mind that these settings are indications. As ingredients differ in origin, size, shape
and brand, we cannot guarantee the best settings for your ingredients. Also note that the Rapid
Air technology instantly reheats the air inside the appliance, so pulling the drawer briefly out of the
appliance during hot air frying will barely disturb the process.
Tips:
• The preparation time will depend on the size of your ingredients. Smaller sizes may require a
shorter cooking time.
• Shaking smaller ingredients halfway during the cooking time optimizes the end result and can
help prevent unevenly fried ingredients.
• Add some oil to fresh potatoes for a crispy result. Fry your ingredients in the air fryer within a
few minutes after you added the oil.
• Be cautious of using extremely greasy ingredients such as sausages in the air fryer.
• Snacks that can be prepared in an oven can also be prepared in the air fryer
• The optimal amount for preparing crispy fries is 300 grams.
