INTENDED USE OF THE DEEP FRYER
■ This deep fryer is intended exclusively f or deep fr ying food using suitable oil or

food directly in the frying pot without the use of a frying medium.
BEFORE FIRST USE
■ Before first use, wash the lid A1 , frying basket A3 with handle A4 and frying pot
A7 in a hot detergent solution. Then rinse all these parts with clean water and dry
them thoroughly with a fine wiping cloth. The frying pot can also be washed in a

OPERA TION
PREP ARING THE DEEP FR YER FOR FRYING
■ Place the deep fryer on a suitable even surface that is out of children's reach. Always
position the handles of the deep fryer so that nobody can brush against them and
knock or tilt the deep fryer over, or spill its hot con tents.
■ If you wish to place the deep fryer on a cooktop underneath a range hood, ensure
that the cooktop is turned off.
■ T ake out the frying basket and inser t the handle A4 into the frying basket by
squeezing the basket wires B1 towards each other with y our fingers and insert the
bent ends into the holes in the bracket B2 on the basket. Then apply gentle pressure
to secure the wires in the bracket. An audible click will be hear d.
■ Insert the dr y and empty frying pot A7 into the deep fr yer unit. Insert the heating
module A12 with the heating element A6 into the frying pot.
■ Pour the frying medium (deep frying oil or shor tening/fat) into the frying pot. Only
use oils and shortening fats that are explicitly marked as "non-frothing" and suitable
for deep frying. T his information is provided on the packaging or label.
Warning:
Never pour more frying medium into the frying pot than up to the
MAX mark and never less than up to the MIN mark.
Never pour any liquid, for e xample water, in to the frying pot.
Never combine various types of shortening fats or oils together .
They could overflow out of the deep fryer.
■ Clean the top edge of the frying pot and any other parts, which have been soiled
while the frying pot was being filled.
FOOD PREP AR A TION
■ As a rule, cut food into equal-siz ed pieces to ensure that it cooks evenly .
■ If the food intended for deep frying is damp, then dry it first. Always season food
with spices only after frying and do not apply the spices above the frying pot or
during the course of frying.
■ If you wish to deep fry coated/battered food, ensur e that it is evenly coated/battered
and that any excess br eadcrumbs are tapped off because loose breadcrumbs spoil
the quality of the frying medium.
■ Certain types of food, such as doughnuts, can be deep fried directly in the frying pot
containing the frying medium without using the frying basket.
■ Cut large pieces of food , e.g. chickens, into smaller pieces . This will prev ent
subsequent scalding when removing the food from the basket .
■ Do not place too many food pieces on top of each other , they could stick together.
■ Remove any exc ess ice from frozen foods since it could cause the oil t o boil over .
■ Do not fill the basket more than halfway , otherwise the temperature of the frying
medium will fall and the frying result will not be optimal.
