Note: If you want to fry only small
quantities, less oil or fat may be enough.

always be completely covered and the
fat or oil must reach at least as far as the
lower marking on the frying insert
8 .
2. Insert the mains plug into the mains
socket.
6.2 Melt existing fat
If the fryer already contains solidified fat from
an earlier frying session it must be melted in
the fryer. You have to do this very carefully so
that the melting fat does not start to spit or the
fryer does not overheat.
1. Insert the mains plug into the mains
socket.
Caution! Ensure that you don’t damage the
heating element 5 with the fork.
2. Use a fork to prick a few holes in the fat
so that any steam formed can escape
more easily.
3. Press the unlock button on the handle 16
and place the lid 12 on the frying
insert 8 .

The oil or fat has now heated to the
desired temperature. The temperature
pilot lamp

as the oil or fat has reached the set
temperature. To keep the oil or fat at
temperature the thermostat automatically
switches the heating on and off. You can
see this when the temperature pilot lamp

Note: We recommend that you heat the oil
for at least between 10 and 15 minutes

the fryer during heating.
