Frequently Asked Questions - FR 5548 AEG

How to use my AEG FR 5548 deep fryer?
Make sure the appliance is unplugged. Remove the lid, take out the basket, fill the tank with oil between the Min and Max marks (max 3 liters per tank). Plug in, turn the thermostat to the desired temperature, wait for the green indicator to turn off, then gently lower the basket into the oil. After cooking, remove the basket, drain, then turn the thermostat to MIN and unplug.
How much oil should I put in the deep fryer?
The oil level should be between the Min and Max marks indicated inside the tank. The maximum capacity is 3 liters per tank. Never exceed the Max mark to avoid overflow.
How to clean the AEG FR 5548 deep fryer?
Always unplug the appliance and let it cool completely (1 to 2 hours). Clean the tank, lid and exterior walls with a damp cloth and a little mild detergent. Never immerse the appliance in water. The frying basket can be washed in soapy water.
What to do if the deep fryer does not turn on?
First check the power connection and the thermostat position. If this does not solve the problem, the appliance is equipped with a safety switch (4) that prevents unintentional start-up. Make sure the control unit is fully pushed into its guide. If the overheat protection has activated (switching on empty), unplug, let cool completely, then press the Restart button (5) with a wooden or plastic object at least 4 cm long.
Can I use olive oil in this deep fryer?
It is not recommended to use olive oil, margarine or butter as they may smoke at low temperatures. Preferably use a good quality liquid frying oil that is heat resistant.
How to change the odor filter?
The filter is located in the lid. Release it by pressing on the clips from inside the lid. Remove the grid, replace the used filter with a new one (or an adjustable universal filter), then put the grid back in place.
What is the power of the AEG FR 5548 deep fryer?
The total electrical power is 4000 W (2 x 2000 W for each tank). The appliance operates on 220-240 V and 50/60 Hz. Use a protected power outlet and do not plug into a power strip.
How to prevent oil overflow?
Do not fill the basket beyond 2/3 of its capacity. Dry wet food before immersing it in oil. Very moist foods (like frozen fries) cause significant foam that may cause oil overflow. Do not exceed 170°C to reduce acrylamide formation.
How to store the power cord?
After use and cooling, unplug the cord. Wind it into a spiral and store it in the cord compartment at the back of the appliance.
What to do if the deep fryer overheats?
If the appliance is accidentally switched on without oil, the overheat protection activates and the appliance stops working. Unplug the cord, let it cool completely, then press the Restart button (5) with a non-metal object at least 4 cm long to reset.

AEG FR 5548 - NOTE: - 1

CAUTION: OVERLOAD:

  • If you use extension leads, these should have a cable cross-section of at least 1.5 mm².
  • Do not use any multiple sockets, as this device is too powerful.

Useful hints for use

  1. Always remove food residue from the oil (e.g., pieces of French fries). After several uses, the oil should be changed.

Use high-quality frying oil or frying grease.

  1. Fats and oils must be able to withstand high temperatures. Do not use margarine, olive oil, or butter: they are not suitable for frying because they start to smoke at low temperatures.

We recommend using liquid frying oil.

AEG FR 5548 - Useful hints for use - 1

WARNING:

Please note this important information if you intend to use fat!

If you use fat, cut it into small pieces. Turn the thermostat to a low temperature and add the pieces slowly. Once the fat has melted and the correct oil level is reached, you can set the desired temperature on the thermostat.

Under no circumstances should you place the fat in the deep frying basket!

  1. To reduce the acrylamide content in starchy foods (potatoes, cereals), the temperature during deep-fat frying should not exceed 170°C (or possibly 175°C). Furthermore, keep the frying time as short as possible and fry the food only until it turns golden yellow.
  2. Please note that the safety switch (4) is activated when the control element is inserted into the guide mechanism.
  3. Choose the appropriate frying temperature and check the condition of the food to be fried. As a rule of thumb, pre-fried foods require a higher temperature than raw foods.
  4. Do not carry or move the deep fryer while the oil or grease is still hot.
  5. When frying dough-like foods, scrape off excess dough and carefully place the pieces into the oil.
  6. Please ensure that the handle of the deep fat frying basket has been correctly attached.
  7. Press the ends of the wire together at the free end of the handle.
  8. Insert the brackets into wire hoops inside the basket.
  9. The deep fat frying basket must not be more than 2/3 full. Do not overfill the frying basket.
  10. Rub dry humid foods with a cloth before frying.

AEG FR 5548 - WARNING: - 1

CAUTION:

In the case of foodstuffs which are too moist (e.g. frozen chips etc.) large amounts of foam may form, which under certain circumstances may cause the oil to overflow.

WARNING:

You will skip the most important rule if you want to use the fryer!

If you want to use the fryer, then divide the food into small pieces. Set the thermostat to the lowest temperature and then put the pieces of food into the fryer. As soon as the food has melted and reached the desired level, switch the thermostat to the desired temperature.

In no case should you put food into the fryer basket.

  1. To keep the formation of acrylamide in starchy foods (potatoes, cereals) to a minimum when frying in the fryer, it is recommended not to exceed the temperature of 170°C (approx. 175°C). Furthermore, it is recommended to reduce the frying time to a minimum and to fry until a maximum golden color.
  2. Please note that the safety switch (4) is pressed by the control device and will be activated. 5. SET THE APPROPRIATE TEMPERATURE, ALWAYS CONSIDERING THE TYPE OF FOOD. As a rule of thumb, you can use the following rule: foods that have been pre-cooked in the fryer require higher temperatures compared to raw foods.
  3. If the oil or food is still frozen, in no case should you turn on the fryer.
  4. Before lowering the oil, food products from the dough must be thoroughly dried with a towel.
  5. Check that the handle is firmly attached to the fryer basket.

Squeeze the ends of the wire together on the free connector. Insert the wire loops inside the box. - The fryer basket can be filled to a maximum of 2/3. Do not overfill the fryer basket.

9. Important products must be dried, pat them dry with a towel.
