The KRUPS XL Air Fryer is a versatile kitchen appliance designed for domestic use, offering a healthier way to cook a wide range of foods by circulating hot air. It's an excellent alternative to traditional frying methods, reducing the need for excessive oil while still achieving crispy and delicious results. This appliance is not intended for commercial or professional use, nor for applications like staff kitchens, farmhouses, hotels, motels, or bed and breakfast environments. Its design focuses on ease of use and safety for the home cook.
The primary function of the KRUPS XL Air Fryer is to cook food using hot air, mimicking the results of deep frying, roasting, grilling, and baking with significantly less oil. This method helps to reduce fat content in meals, making it a healthier cooking option. The appliance features a digital touchscreen panel (D) that allows users to select various cooking modes and adjust settings. The time/temperature display (E) provides real-time feedback on the cooking process.
The air fryer comes with several automatic cooking modes tailored for common foods, including Fries, Cutlets, Shrimp, Cake, Pizza, Fish, Grill, and Roast. These pre-set modes simplify the cooking process, as they come with recommended temperatures and times. However, users also have the flexibility to manually adjust the temperature and cooking time to suit their specific recipes and preferences. The thermostat can be set within a range of 176-392°F, and the timer can be adjusted from 0 to 60 minutes.
The appliance is equipped with a removable bowl (A) and a removable grid (C) where the food is placed for cooking. Hot air is circulated around the food, ensuring even cooking and browning. Excess oil from the food collects at the bottom of the bowl, making it easy to dispose of and further contributing to healthier meals. The bowl handle (B) allows for safe removal and handling of the hot bowl.
A preheating function is available, which is recommended for optimal cooking results. Once plugged in, the Start button flashes, and users can set the desired preheating temperature. The appliance beeps when the target temperature is reached, indicating it's ready for cooking.
Before first use, it's essential to remove all packaging materials, stickers, and labels. The bowl and removable grid should be thoroughly cleaned with hot water, dishwashing liquid, and a non-abrasive sponge, or in a dishwasher. The inside and outside of the appliance should be wiped with a damp cloth. It's crucial never to fill the bowl with oil or frying fat, as the appliance operates by producing hot air.
For optimal performance, the air fryer should be placed on a flat, stable, heat-resistant work surface, away from water splashes. Nothing should be placed on top of the appliance, as this can disrupt airflow and negatively impact cooking results.
When cooking, food should be placed in the bowl, ensuring not to exceed the MAX level mark or the maximum amount indicated in the cooking guide. Overfilling can affect the quality of the end result. The bowl, once filled, is then slid back into the appliance. During and immediately after use, the bowl becomes very hot, so it should only be handled by its handle.
For foods that require shaking halfway through the cooking time, such as fries, the appliance offers an alert setting (every 5, 10, or 15 minutes). To shake the food, the bowl is pulled out by the handle, shaken, and then slid back into the appliance. The Start button is pressed again to resume cooking.
Once the cooking time has elapsed, the appliance emits a sound and switches off. The bowl should be removed and placed on a heat-resistant surface. If the food isn't ready, the bowl can be slid back in, and the timer can be set for a few extra minutes. When the food is cooked, tongs should be used to lift it out of the bowl, being careful of any excess oil collected at the bottom and the grid potentially falling out. Steam may also escape from the hot bowl.
The KRUPS XL Air Fryer is designed for continuous use, meaning it's instantly ready to prepare another batch of food once one is complete. After 15 minutes of inactivity, the appliance will enter Sleep mode, which can be reactivated by pressing the power button.
For making homemade French Fries, specific steps are recommended: choose the right potato variety, peel and cut them into equal thickness fries, soak them in cold water for at least 30 minutes, drain and thoroughly dry them with a paper towel, then toss them with a small amount of oil (1/2 tablespoon) before cooking according to the guide.
Regular cleaning is essential for maintaining the appliance and ensuring its longevity. The air fryer should be cleaned after every use. Before cleaning, the appliance must be unplugged from the wall socket and allowed to cool down completely. Removing the bowl can help the machine cool faster.
The bowl and grid have a non-stick coating, so it's important to avoid using metal kitchen utensils or abrasive cleaning materials, as these can damage the coating. These parts can be cleaned with hot water, dishwashing liquid, and a non-abrasive sponge, or they are dishwasher-safe. For stubborn dirt, filling the bowl and grid with hot water and dishwashing liquid and letting them soak for about 10 minutes can help.
The outside of the appliance should be wiped with a damp cloth. The inside of the appliance should also be wiped with hot water and a damp cloth. The heating element can be cleaned with a dry cleaning brush to remove any food residues. It is crucial never to immerse the appliance in water or any other liquid.
For storage, ensure the appliance is unplugged and completely cool and dry. It should be stored in a dry and well-ventilated area, not outdoors.
Periodically, users should check for looseness and retighten screws or nuts on the body and lid handles using an adapted tool. However, caution is advised against overtightening, which can strip screws or crack handles.
The appliance contains valuable materials that can be recovered and recycled. Users are encouraged to dispose of it at a local civic waste collection point to support environmental protection.
