Important

Read this user manual carefully before you use the appliance and save it for future reference.

Danger

- Never immerse the housing, which contains electrical components and the heating element, in water nor rinse it under the tap.

Warning

• Check if the voltage indicated on the appliance corresponds to the local mains voltage before you connect the appliance.
• Do not use the appliance if the plug, the mains cord or the appliance itself is damaged.
• If the mains cord is damaged, you must have it replaced by Philips, a service centre authorised by Philips or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• This appliance is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or instruction concerning use of the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
• Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
• Keep the mains cord out of the reach of children. Do not let the mains cord hang over the edge of the table or worktop on which the appliance stands.
• Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall socket.
• During frying, hot steam is released through the filter. Keep your hands and face at a safe distance from the steam. Also be careful of the hot steam when you open the lid.
• This appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or a separate remote control system.

Caution

• Always return the appliance to a service centre authorised by Philips for examination or repair. Do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself, otherwise the guarantee becomes invalid.
• Place the appliance on a horizontal, even and stable surface.
• Do not touch the viewing window, as it becomes hot during frying.
• This appliance is intended for household use only. If the appliance is used improperly or for professional or semi-professional purposes or if it is not used according to the instructions in

ENGLISH 9

the user manual, the guarantee becomes invalid and Philips refuses any liability for damage caused.

- Fry food golden-yellow instead of dark or brown and remove burnt remnants. Do not fry starchy foods, especially potato and cereal products, at a temperature above 175^ C (to minimise the production of acrylamide).

- Prevent water and/or ice from coming into contact with oil or fat, as this causes heavy spattering or violent bubbling of the oil of fat. To achieve this, remove all excess ice from frozen ingredients before you fry them and dry ingredients thoroughly before you fry them. Do not overfill the basket. After cleaning, dry all parts thoroughly before you put oil or fat in the fryer.

- Do not fry Asian rice cakes (or similar types of food) in this appliance. This might cause heavy spattering or violent bubbling of the oil or fat.

- Make sure the fryer is always filled with oil or fat to a level between the 'MIN' and 'MAX' indications on the inside of the inner bowl to prevent either overflowing or overheating.

- Do not switch on the appliance before you have filled it with oil or fat, as this can damage the appliance.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on scientific evidence available today.

Preparing for use

1 Clean the appliance before you use it for the first time (see chapter 'Cleaning').

Make sure that all parts are dry before you fill the fryer with oil or fat.

2 Press the lid release button to open the lid (Fig. 2).

3 Consult the oil/fat table to determine how much oil or fat you have to put in the fryer (Fig. 3).

4 Fill the fryer with oil, liquid frying fat or melted solid fat to a level between the 'MIN' and 'MAX' indications and close the lid (Fig. 4).

Do not switch on the appliance before you have filled it with oil or fat.

Oil and fat

Never mix different types of oil or fat and never add fresh oil or fat to used oil or fat.

• We advise you to use frying oil or liquid frying fat. Preferably use vegetable oil or fat that is rich in unsaturated fats (e.g. linoleic acid), such as soy oil, peanut oil, maize oil or sunflower oil.
• Because oil and fat lose their favourable properties rather quickly, you have to change the oil or fat regularly (after 10-12 times).
• Always change the oil or fat if it starts foaming when it is heated, if it has a strong smell or taste or if it turns dark and/or syrupy.

Solid fat

You can also use solid frying fat. In that case, extra precautions are necessary to prevent the fat from spattering and the heating element from overheating or becoming damaged.

1 If you want to use new blocks of fat, melt them slowly over a low heat in a normal pan.
2 Pour the melted fat carefully into the fryer.
3 Store the fryer with the resolidified fat still in it at room temperature.
4 If the fat gets very cold, it may start spattering when it melts. Punch some holes into the resolidified fat with a fork to prevent this (Fig. 5).

ENGLISH10

Be careful not to damage the inner bowl with the fork.

Using the appliance

1 Take the entire cord from the cord storage compartment and put the plug in the wall socket (Fig. 6).
2 Switch on the fryer (Fig. 7). The temperature light goes on (Fig. 8).
3 Set the temperature control to the required temperature (see the package of the food to be fried or the food table at the end of this booklet).
4 Wait until the temperature light goes out (this takes 10 to 15 minutes).
5 Fold out the handle of the frying basket (Fig. 9).
6 Open the lid (Fig. 2).
7 Remove the basket from the fryer and put the food to be fried in the basket (Fig. 10).
Do not fry very large quantities at one time. Do not exceed the quantities mentioned in the food table at the end of this booklet ( ☎ indicates the recommended quantity).
8 Put the basket on the bracket, but do not lower it into the oil or fat yet (Fig. 11).
9 Close the lid.
10 Press the button on the basket handle and fold the handle against the fryer. The basket is automatically lowered into the oil or fat. (Fig. 12)
During frying, the temperature light comes on and goes out from time to time to indicate that the heating element is switched on and off to maintain the correct temperature.

Timer

Note: You can also use the timer for other purposes, e.g. as a regular cooking timer.

Setting the timer

1 Press the timer button to set the frying time in minutes. (Fig. 13)
A few seconds after you have set the frying time, the timer starts to count down.
While the timer is counting down, the remaining frying time flashes on the display. The last minute is displayed in seconds.
When the preset time has elapsed you hear an audible signal. After 10 seconds the audible signal is repeated. Press the timer button to stop the audible signal.

Note: You can erase the timer setting by pressing the timer button for 2 seconds (at the moment the timer flashes) until '00' appears.

After frying

1 Fold out the handle of the basket (Fig. 9).
2 Open the lid (Fig. 2).
Beware of the hot steam.
3 Remove the basket from the fryer and shake off excess oil or fat.
4 Put the fried food in a bowl or colander lined with grease-absorbing paper, e.g. kitchen paper.
5 Enjoy the fried food.

If you want to fry another batch, wait until the temperature light goes out.

6 Press the on/off switch to switch off the fryer.
7 Put the basket in the fryer.
8 Close the lid.
9 Unplug the appliance after use.

Note: If you do not use the fryer regularly, we advise you to remove the oil or liquid fat and to store it in well-closed containers, preferably in the refrigerator or in a cool place.

Frying tips

• For an overview of preparation times and frying temperatures, see the food table at the end of this booklet.
• Carefully shake off as much ice and water as possible and dab the food to be fried until it is properly dry.
• Do not fry very large quantities at one time. Do not exceed the quantities mentioned at the end of this booklet ( ☑ indicates the recommended quantity).

Getting rid of unwanted flavours

Certain types of food, particularly fish, can give the oil or fat an unpleasant flavour. To neutralise the taste of the oil or fat:

1 Heat the oil or fat to a temperature of 160^ C.
2 Put two thin slices of bread or a few sprigs of parsley in the oil.
3 Wait until no more bubbles appear and then scoop the bread or the parsley out of the fryer with a spatula.
The oil or fat now has a neutral taste again.

Home-made French fries

You make the tastiest and crispiest French fries in the following way:

1 Use firm potatoes and cut them into sticks. Rinse the sticks with cold water. This prevents them from sticking to each other during frying.

Note: Dry the sticks thoroughly.

2 Fry the French fries twice: the first time for 4-6 minutes at a temperature of 160^ , the second time for 5-8 minutes at a temperature of 175^ . Let the French fries cool down before you fry them for the second time.

3 Put the home-made French fries in a bowl and shake them.

Cleaning

Never use scouring pads, abrasive cleaning agents or aggressive liquids such as petrol or acetone to clean the appliance.

1 Open the lid (Fig. 2).
2 Let the oil or fat cool down for at least 4 hours before you clean or move the fryer.
3 Pull the lid upwards to remove it (Fig. 14).
4 Lift the frying basket out of the fryer (Fig. 10).
5 Pour out the oil or fat (Fig. 15).
