BEFORE FIRST USE

Remove the lid, basket, handle, controlbox

and the bowl from the outer jacket.

Clean the lid, basket, handle, bowl and the

outer jacket in hot soapy water and dry

thoroughly.

Do not immerse the controlbox in any liquid.

DISMANTLING THE DEEP FRYER

Remove the controlbox from the appliance.

To do this, gently pull the controlbox

upwards.

Take the bowl with both hands and pull it
up slightly.

ASSEMBLING OF THE DEEP FRYER

Place the outer jacket on a heat resistant

dry level surface.

Replace the bowl until it rests on the top

edge of the outer jacket.

Replace the controlbox. To replace the

controlbox, firmly slide the controlbox down

the two grooves on the back of the outer

jacket. The appliance will only operate when

the control panel is correctly fitted to the

outer jacket.

USING YOUR DEEP FRYER

We advise that you use liquid oil, which is

recommended for deep fat frying.

Ensure the appliance is switched off. Slowly

add the oil to the fryer untill the required

level is reached (between the minimum and

the maximum indications)

Set the temperature control knob to the

temperature you require. Switch on the

appliance the red ON/OFF lamp will switch

on.

When the oil is heating, the green

thermostatic light will be illuminated. When

the oil reaches the set temperature, the light

will go out. The thermostat will cycle on and

off to indicate when the appliance is heating

the oil and when the desired oil temperature

has been reached.

For best results, always wait until the

appliance is at the correct temperature

before adding food.

Place the food to be fried carefully in the

basket. With the handle attached to the

basket, gently lower the basket into the oil.

For"crispy" result, we recommend using the

fryer without the lid. Be very careful of

spitting hot oil.

Always switch off the appliance and unplug

from the power supply after use or whilst

unattended.

Should you accidentally switch ON the

deep fryer without oil or fat or without the

minimum amount of oil required, the deep

fryer will automatically cut-out, to stop the

appliance from overheating.

If this happens, first switch-off the appliance

and unplug from outlet. Wait until the

elements are cooled down. Pull out the

cord-set, place your finger inside the

storage area and push upwards onto the

small red button marked RESET.

This will reset the deep fryer. The deep fryer

is now ready to use.

Should you wish to use solid fat, turn the
temperature knob to its lowest position. Cut
the solid fat into cubes of size 15-20 mm.
Switch on the deep fryer and rotate the
temperature dial until the light comes on.
