USING THE FRYER
– Check the level of oil or fat, it must be
between the minimum and maximum
mark.
– Make sure that the heating element is
completely lowered.
– Move the basket handle outwards (fig.
1.7) and hook it (fig 1.8).
– Turn the changeover switch knob to
the ON position ( ); the power
indicator light comes on.
– Turn the thermostat knob to the
temperature required; the temperature
indicator light comes on.
– When the temperature indicator light
goes out, the oil or fat have reached
the set temperature and the appliance
is ready for cooking. This indicator will
come on and go out intermittently
during cooking.
– Before putting food into the basket dry
it thoroughly because the contact
between the water and the hot oil can
lead to very dangerous splashes.
– Fill the basket with the food to be fried
and lower it slowly into the oil.
WARNING: If the food is too wet
there will be violent and dangerous
foaming.
– As soon as the food is cooked, take
out the basket and rest it on the
support until all the excess oil has
drained off (fig. 1.6).
– Always dry off any overflows.

IMPORTANT:
• While using the fryer the pan
cover must always be removed.
• Never switch the fryer on with the
heating element raised. If this
happens by accident, never put
the heating element into the oil or
fat before it has cooled down.
WARNING
The fryer and the adjacent surfaces
become very hot during use and
also there might be splashes of
boiling oil.
Keep children away and be careful
of oil splashes.
