Thankyou for choosing the De’Longhi electric fryer. To get the very best out of your
new fryer, it is advisable to read these instructions before installing and using the
appliance. This is the only way to ensure optimum results and maximum safety.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
• Before use, check that the mains power supply corresponds to
the voltage supply indicated on the appliance.
• Before use, wash the bowl the lid (remove filters) and the bas-
ket using hot water then carefully dry the bowl.
• Never switch on the fryer before adding oil or fat. If the fryer
is operated without oil or fat, a thermostatly operated safe-
ty device interrupts the operation of the appliance. In this
case, it is necessary to contact one of our authorized ser-
vice centres before re-using the appliance.
FILLING WITH OIL OR FAT
• Raise the basket to the highest position by pulling the spe-
cial “B” handle upwards (fig.1).
The lid should ALWAYS be closed when the basket is
raised and lowered.
• Open lid “D” by pressing button “V” (fig.2).
• Remove the basket by pulling it upwards (fig.3).
• Pour into the container 2.2 litres of oil (or 2 kg. of fat).
WARNING
The level must always be between the maximum and min-
imum levels indicated.
Never use the deep fryer when the oil is below the “min”
level as it could cause the thermal safety device to come
into operation; to replace it you need to contact one of our
service centres.
Best results are obtained by using a good quality oil. Avoid mix-
ing different types of oil. If you use lumps of solid fat, cut them
into small pieces so that the deep fryer does not heat up in the
first few minutes without a covering of fat. The temperature
must be set to 150°C until the fat has melted completely. The
required temperature can then be set.

STARTING TO FRY
1. Put the food which is to be fried into the basket, without ever overfilling it (max. 1.35 kg.
of fresh potatoes).
If cooking food from frozen, make sure very little ice is included (see frying frozen food).
2. Put the basket into the fryer bowl in a raised position (fig. 3) and close the lid by press-
ing lightly down upon it until the hooks click. Always close the lid before lowering the
basket in order to avoid hot oil from splashing out.
