If the safety thermostat has switched the
appliance off:
- Allow the appliance to cool down.
- Press the “reset” button (F) (fig. 4) to make the
appliance ready for use again.
Prior to first use: clean thoroughly
• Ensure that the mains plug is not in the wall
socket.
• Never immerse the control unit with heating
element and mains cord in water. Never
rinse these items.
- Remove the lid (fig. 5), the frying basket (fig. 6)
and the control unit with the heating element
and mains cord (fig. 7).
Put the control unit with the heating element
and mains cord aside to a safe (dry) place.
- The stainless steel inner pan can be removed
(fig. 8) for quick and easy cleaning.
- Wash the frying basket, the lid and the hand
grip in hot soapy water (fig. 9). Rinse with clean
water and dry.
Deep fat frying
- Remove the lid (fig. 10).
- Put the hand grip into operational position
(fig. 11). Make sure that it clips securely to the
wire holder.
- Fill the deep fat frying pan with oil or melted fat
to the highest indication line (4 litres of oil or 3.5
kilogrammes of fat) (fig. 12).
When using new solid frying fat:
- Melt the piece(s) of new solid frying fat in a
separate pan on a low fire.
- Put out the fire below the pan as soon as the fat
has melted.
- Place the fryer in the sink basin.
- Very carefully pour the melted fat into the fryer.
- Carefully move the filled fryer to the place
where you want to use it. Then plug in and
switch on.
When melting used solid frying fat which has
curdled in the fryer:
- To prevent spatting, carefully pierce some holes
in the fat.
Avoid damaging the heating element when
doing so!
- Put the lid on the fryer.
- Switch on.
• Always leave the lid on the fryer while the fat is
melting to prevent spattering.
• Only use the described melting procedure!
Otherwise there is a risk of warm melted fat
suddenly spouting from below through the still
solid top layer of fat.
• Store the fryer containing solidified fat at room
temperature. If the fat is very cold there is a
greater risk of spattering.
• Never mix two different types of oil and/or fat.
- Unroll the mains cord completely (fig. 13).
• Ensure that the mains cord will not touch hot
surfaces and that it does not hang over the
worktop edge.
- Insert the plug into the mains socket.
- Set the temperature knob to the setting which is
most appropriate for the kind of food to be fried
(fig. 14). Refer to the table.
- After the pilot lamp has extinguished for the
second time (after 10-15 minutes) the oil/fat is
at the correct temperature.
- Carefully lift the frying basket out of the pan
(fig. 15).
- Put the food into the basket (fig. 16).
- Place the frying basket into the pan (fig. 17).
• For better overall browning, it is advised to lift
and shake the basket a couple of times during
frying (fig. 18).
- After frying, hook the frying basket in the high
position (i.e. “drain position”) (fig. 19). Allow the
fried food to drain for a while.
If required you can shake the basket over the
fryer to remove excess fat/oil (fig. 20).
- Remove the basket from the fryer and put the
fried food in a colander with fat absorbing paper
(e.g. tissue paper/kitchen roll) (fig. 21).
- After use, set the temperature knob to the low-
est position (turn fully anti-clockwise) (fig. 22)
and remove the plug from the mains socket.
- Clean the fryer after the oil or fat has cooled
down sufficiently.
- You can tilt the hand grip backwards and store
it inside the frying basket. Store the fryer with
the lid on top. This will keep dust etc. from the
pan.
- You may wind the mains cord around the cord
storage facility at the back of the appliance.
“Cool Zone”
Loose food particles do not turn charred in this
fryer, so that the oil/fat will remain longer in good
condition. The loose particles will gather in the
“cool zone” below the heating element.
After the appliance has cooled down, you can
