Oil and fat
Never mix different types of oil or fat!
We advise you to use frying oil or liquid frying fat, preferably vegetable oil or fat that is rich in
unsaturated fats (e.g. linoleic acid).
It is possible to use solid frying fat, but in that case extra precautions are necessary to prevent the
fat from spattering and the heating element from overheating or becoming damaged.
1 If you want to use new blocks of fat, melt them slowly over a low heat in a normal pan.
2 Pour the melted fat carefully into the fryer.
3 Store the fryer with the resolidified fat still in it at room temperature.
4 If the fat gets very cold, it may start spattering when melted. Punch some holes into the
resolidified fat with a fork to prevent this.
Be careful not to damage the inner bowl with the fork.
Using the appliance
Frying
Be careful: hot steam will escape from the filter in the lid during frying.
1 Take the entire cord from the cord storage compartment and put the plug in the wall socket
(fig. 4).
Make sure the mains cord does not come into contact with hot parts of the appliance.
2 Set the temperature control to the required temperature (150-190cC) (fig. 5).
- For information about which temperature to select, check the package of the food to be fried
or the tables at the end of these instructions for use.
- The oil or fat will be heated to the selected temperature in 10 to 15 minutes.
- While the fryer is heating up, the temperature light goes out and on a number of times. When it
stays out for some time, the oil or fat has reached the preset temperature.
- After a batch has been fried, the temperature light also goes on. Wait until it stays out for some
time before frying the next batch.
B You can leave the basket in the fryer while the oil or fat is heating up.
3 Fold out the handle of the basket (fig. 1).
4 Open the lid by lightly pressing the release button (fig. 2).
5 Remove the basket from the fryer and put the food to be fried in the basket.
