4. Turn the temperature dial to the desired temperature (see: ›Tips for Best Results‹).
The appliance starts heating. As soon as the selected temperature is reached, the heater indi-
cator goes out. Then, you can fill in your prepared food.
tip: You can alter the preselected temperature whenever you like. The appliance will always
maintain the temperature selected at the temperature dial.
warnIng: The exterior of the appliance and especially the lid will become very hot. Additi-
onally, steam will escape from the filter opening in the lid and under the brim of the lid. Always
ensure not to get scald by steam and condensate. Only touch the appliance at the handles
and operating elements to avoid scalding. Do not hold your hands or face over the appliance
during operation and shortly thereafter. Beware of hot steam coming out from under the lid,
especially when opening the lid during operation.
5.
Ensure that the prepared pieces of food are dry as far as possible and do not drip. Then,
distribute the pieces of your food evenly in the basket.
warnIng: When frying food, for which you cannot use the basket (e.g. moist batter) you
must add your food without the basket directly into the oil container with the lid open. For this,
it is best to use a ladle to immerse the food slowly into the oil. Doing so, keep in mind that the
oil could vigorously froth and splash and large amounts of steam could escape, when getting
in contact with wet food. Keep a sufficient distance to the appliance, and protect your hands
with oven gloves.
6.
Press the opening button and grasp the lid at the handle to open it.
7. Put the basket into the oil container. For this, insert the shaft in the middle of the oil container
in the opening in the middle of the basket. Leave the basket at the upper position, where the
brim of the basket is on a level with the brim of the oil container. Ensure that the basket is fixed
in this position.
8.
Close the lid.
warnIng: When lowering the basket loaded with food, the hot oil could vigorously
froth and splash and large amounts of hot steam will escape. Do not hold your hands and
face over the appliance during operation. When working with the basket, always close the lid
before lowering the basket. Be aware that, even with the lid closed properly, large amounts
of steam could escape from the filter opening and under the brim of the lid. Especially, when
opening the lid during or after a frying cycle, beware of hot steam escaping from under the lid.
9.
Grasp the handle of the basket, hold the basket release button pressed, while SLOwLy
lowering the basket into the oil. Doing so, watch the process via the window in the lid without
holding your face over the appliance. If you food is very humid, the oil could vigorously froth,
and large amounts of steam could escape from the filter opening and from under the brim of
the lid. Keep sufficient distance to the appliance. Ensure that the oil will not overflow.
tip: When the oil temperature drops below the set value, the heating element will switch on
automatically. Thus, the green heater indicator illuminates again. This will occur especially
when lowering cold food into the oil container, and it indicates simply the proper functioning
of the temperature control.
10.
Turn the cooking timer to the desired cooking time (in minutes). As soon as the set time has
elapsed, a signal rings.
warnIng: Do not cut your food in the oil container or basket! When cutting food, juices
could come out, drip into the hot oil, and vigorously splash, thus leading to injuries and dama-
ge. Additionally, basket and oil container will get damaged by cutting.
