IMPORTANT – As with any cooking appliance there could be
some fire risk attached to the heating of oil, particularly for deep
fat frying, cooking utensils containing oil must not be left
unattended
(e.g. to answer the telephone) on or in close
proximity to the cooking areas.
In the unfortunate event of a chip pan fire:
1. Switch Off the electricity supply.
2. Smother flames with a fire blanket or damp cloth.
3. LEAVE THE PAN TO COOL FOR AT LEAST 60 MINUTES BEFORE MOVING
IT. Injuries are often caused by picking up a hot pan and rushing
outside with it.
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the
appropriate heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full or fat or oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking
period.
4. Do not try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food.
This only lowers the temperature of the oil or fat too much,
resulting in greasy food.
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly
into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods, in particular, will cause
frothing and spitting, if added too quickly.
6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or
fat.
