Electric Fryer F600
The green light “ready” will be on when the fryer will reach
the desired temperature (fig. 6).
10. When the oil has reached the correct frying temperature, the
green light will go off.
11. You can now slowly lower the basket into the oil.
Frying foods
1. Do not touch any metal parts of the fryer as they may be hot.
2. When the green temperature light is turned off, slowly lower
the basket into the hot oil by folding down the handle.
Lowering the basket too quickly may result overflowing of the oil.
3. Always use the frying basket to fry foods. Always close the lid
during frying.
4. When frying, viewing window enables you to control your
foods without opening the lid.
5. It is normal for steam to appear on the window during the
first few minutes of use and this will gradually disappear during
cooking.
6. During frying hot steam may escape through the filters in the
lid.This is normal.
At the end of the cooking time
When cooking time is ended:
1. Lift the handle to its horizontal position and open the lid.
2. Let the food drain for a minute, then lift the basket out to
serve, making sure not to press the button on the handle.
3. Always unplug the deep fryer when you have finished frying.
4. Let the fryer cool completely (1 or 2 hours) before storing or
cleaning.
5. Never carry or move the deep fryer with hot oil or fat inside.
6. The deep fryer has a little condensation tray on the back of the
appliance.This needs to be checked and emptied occationally.
Filtering and changing the oil
1. Make sure the fryer is unplugged and the oil has cooled down
before cleaning or storing your fryer.
2. The oil does not need to be changed after each use. On aver-
age, oil can be used for 8 to 12 fryings.You will need to change
it more often when frying fish or heavily battered foods.
3. We recommend filtering the oil if you see any food debris left
in the oil or on the bottom of the non-stick bowl.You can do
this as follows:
4. Remove the basket. Carefully pour the oil into another large
pot or saucepan.
5. Clean the frying basket and the non-stick bowl with hot water,
a little dishwashing liquid and a non abrasive pad or sponge.
6. Over time, the non-stick coating of the bowl may become
slightly darker or scratched due to usage.This is normal.
