How do I use AirFry?
Handling food carefully will help protect your health.
Food like cakes, pizzas and fries should be cooked until golden, not dark brown.
Foods that do not drip, e.g. French fries:
use the Gourmet baking and AirFry tray, perforated (if you have one). The fine perforations of the Gourmet baking and AirFry tray, perforated, ensure that the food is browned and crispy on all sides. However, you can also use the universal tray.Food that drips, e.g. chicken thighs:
use the universal tray with the baking and roasting rack or the grilling and roasting insert (if you have one) placed on top. The tray under the insert will collect the meat juices and stop them from burning so that they can be used for making gravy and sauces. Brush the baking and roasting rack or the grilling and roasting insert with oil and then place the food on top.Food in bakeware:
place food in bakeware in the centre of the rack.
You can purchase accessories for your oven from the oven accessories section of the Miele online shop or from a Miele dealer.
Do not defrost frozen food.
Spread the food evenly over the Gourmet baking and AirFry tray, perforated, or the grilling and roasting insert in a single layer if possible.
Place the food in the oven without pre-heating. If the food is not crispy enough for you, you can try pre-heating the oven next time.
Only cook on one level. Cooking on multiple levels will create too much moisture in the oven compartment and the food will not become crispy.
As a general rule, food should be placed on shelf level 2. If you would like more browning on top, you can try using a higher level next time.
Select the AirFry operating mode, see “Wie kann ich AirFry am Backofen auswählen? (H 2xxx)”.
Confirm your selection with OK.
The recommended temperature of 190 °C will appear. You can change the recommended temperature in a range of 30–250 °C.
Change the recommended temperature according to the information in the recipe or the most recent operating instructions.
If you are cooking frozen food/ready meals, follow the manufacturer’s instructions on the packaging. Use the lowest temperature recommended on the packaging.Food such as French fries should be turned halfway through the cooking duration if possible. Set the minute minder to remind you.
At the end of the cooking duration, check whether the food is crispy and browned enough for you.
Consult the operating instructions for further information.
