Important
• Read these instructions in conjunction with the illustrations before using the appliance.
• Before plugging the fryer in, check if the voltage indicated on the type plate is the same as
the mains voltage in your home.
• Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall socket.
• Never immerse the control unit with heating element in water.
• Clean the various parts thoroughly before using the fryer for the first time. Ensure that they
are thoroughly dry before filling the frying pan with oil or melted fat.
• In general, we advise you to use liquid frying fat or frying oil in this appliance.
Solid frying fat can also be used. However, when using solid frying fat extra precautions
must be taken to prevent splashing fat when melting. (See section "When using solid fat".)
• Do not switch on until you have filled the frying pan with oil or (liquid / melted) fat.
• When using new fat (lumps or blocks), melt the fat in a separate pan and then pour it into
the fryer before switching on.
• Only use oils and fats which contain an anti-foaming agent and which are recommended for
deep fat frying. This information can be found on the packing of these oils/fats.
• Always fill with oil or fat to the level between the two measure indications.
Before you start frying, always check if there is sufficient oil/fat in the fryer.
• Do not exceed the maximum quantities indicated in the table. If the basket is overfilled, hot
fat/oil may flow over the top of the frying pan.
• During the process of frying hot steam comes from the appliance. Keep your hands and
face away from this steam.
• Be careful of steam escaping when opening the lid.
• Keep the deep fat fryer out of the reach of children at all times especially when in use.
• Do not let the mains cord hang over the edge of the table or sink.
• After use set the temperature knob to the lowest position (rotate anti-clockwise until it
stops). Remove the plug from the mains socket and let the oil or fat cool down. Do not
move the fryer until it has cooled sufficiently.
• If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by Philips or their
service representative, as special tools and/or parts are required.
• Keep these instructions for future reference.

in case of overheating.
