DEEP FAT FRYING

For safety purposes when deep fat fry-
ing, do not fill the pan more than one
third full of oil.

DO NOT cover the pan with a lid and DO
NOT
leave the pan unattended.

In the unfortunate event of a fire, leave
the pan where it is and turn off the con-
trol knobs.

Place a damp cloth or lid over the pan to
smother the flames. Leave the pan to
cool for at least 30minutes before mov-
ing the pan.

DO NOT USE WATER ON THE FIRE.

CHOICE OF THE BURNER

On the control panel, near each knob,
there is a diagram that indicates which
burner is controlled by that knob.
Select the burner that is most suitable
for the diameter and capacity of the pan
to be used.
As an indication, the burners and the
pans must be used in the following way:

It is important that the base diameter of
the pot is at least the same diameter as
the burner ring to obtain an efficient heat
transfer.
Always position pans centrally over the
burners.
Adjust the size of the flame so that it
does not lick up the side of the pan.
Position pan handles so that they
cannot be accidentally knocked.
