3 before the first use

Before you use the appliance for the first time, please do as follows: Carefully unpack the appliance and remove all the packaging material. Keep the material (plastic bags and cardboard) out of reach of children. Check the appliance after unpacking for any visible damage, possible from transportation. Place the appliance on a stable and heat resistant surface.

Remove the lid and the basket. Take out the heating element with the oil filter by pulling it straight up and also remove the reservoir. Clean the lid, the basket, the oil filter and the reservoir with warm soapy water. Dry the parts thoroughly. Make sure that the parts are completely dry.

Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
Assemble the fryer.

Fill the reservoir with liquid frying oil between the minimum and maximum level, approx. 3 liters or 4 liters, depending on the model. Ensure that you don't add less than the minimum capacity or over the maximum capacity. Inside the reservoir you will find two lines which indicate the minimum and maximum level.

Attention: this fryer may only be used with liquid frying oil. Never use hard fats.

The handle of the basket can be stored in the basket by folding it in. Squeeze the two handle wires together and push the handle forwards over the locking clip.

Only store the handle when the oil is fully cooled down. Ensure the handle is folded back before operating the fryer again!

For the best result in a cool zone fryer, always fry without using the lid.

4 frying

TIMER BUTTON

This fryer has an automatic switch off timer.

Set the timer button on CONSTANT and the fryer will not switch off until you set the timer button to 0 and unplug the fryer.

Or let the fryer switch off automatically. Turn the timer button to 30 minutes and then turn it back to the desired time.

Attention: the fryer will completely switch off after the set time has past.

We advise not to use the timer as a frying timer, but as an automatic switch off timer.

Check that the voltage in your home corresponds with the voltage printed on the bottom of the appliance.

Check if the handle is folded back and plug the fryer in.

Turn the fryer on with the timer button. First turn it to 30 minutes and then turn it back to the desired time or set the timer button to setting CONSTANT. The red power indicator will light up.

Turn the thermostat button clockwise to the required temperature. As soon as the desired temperature is reached, the green thermostat lamp will light up. The thermostat and the thermostat lamp will toggle on and off as the thermostat in the fryer maintains the correct temperature.

The fryer is now ready to use.

Add the desired quantity of food to the basket. Do not add too much food at one time (never more than 2/3). Food should be as dry as possible to reduce the amount of water getting into the oil. Shake the ice off of frozen products above the sink.

Lower the basket slowly into the oil. If you lower too fast the oil can splash.

Always fry without the lid. This prevents the fryer from overheating and an automatic shutdown. At the same time it ensures a crispier result.

When the food is deepfried, lift the basket out of the oil. Carefully shake the excessive fat of and hang the basket on the hook in the reservoir to drain the oil.

Take the basket out of the fryer and serve the food. Place the basket back.

5 after frying

Check when you have finished frying whether the timer button is set to 0 and remove the plug from the socket.

Only store the handle when the oil is fully cooled down. Ensure the handle is folded back before operating the fryer again!

Let the fryer cooldown for several hours before moving the fryer. If you want to move the fryer always use both hands.

6 tips

• Note: during and after frying it is possible that drops of condensated water fall into the hot oil. The hard noise you can hear, is the reaction of the water with the oil/fat and is normal. It does not influence the use of the fryer.
• Note: Battered or coated food, like fish, may stick to the basket. To prevent this, lower the basket and than place the food in the fryer.
• Never salt the product before or during cooking. This will soil the oil.
• For the best results it is advisable not to fry with a full basket, maximum 450 to 500 grams. Fry frozen products in even smaller portions, because they contain more water and cause the oil to cool down too much.
• If you make your own fries, dry them thoroughly after washing to make sure there will be no water in the oil. Fry the fresh fries in two times. The first time (pre-cooking) 5 to 10 minutes on 170 degrees. Lift the basket, let the oil drain and let the fries cool down for several minutes. For the second time turn the temperature control (cooking) to 190 degrees and cook the fries in 2 to 4 minutes. Lift the basket after frying and let the oil drain.

7 safety

Your fryer is provided with a double safety, a reset-button and a safety switch.

The fryer is provided with an overheating safety which automatically shuts the fryer off when overheating. Remove the plug from the outlet and allow the fryer to cool down completely. You can switch the fryer on again when you push in the reset按钮 on the back in the storage compartment. See 6 on the picture. Use a blunt object to press the reset-button in the small round opening.

On the front of the heating you will see a safety switch. If you pull out the heating element while the fryer is still on, the safety switch will shut the element of. This also means that you can not use the heating element when it is not placed or not placed correctly in the retaining slots.

8 cleaning & maintenance

FILTERING OR CHANGING LIQUID FRYING OIL

Before changing or filtering the oil, always unplug the fryer and let it cool down completely. The liquid frying oil can be used longer, if you filter it regularly.

This fryer has an oil filter to make it easier to filter the oil after every use. Remove after every use the basket and slide the heating element with the oil filter upwards from the guiding rail. Slide the oil filter from the heating element and throw away any residue left on the filter. Clean the oil filter with hot water and a mild detergent or in the

dishwasher. Thoroughly dry the filter before sliding it back on the heating element. Place the heating element back.

Replace the liquid frying oil regularly, after 8 to 12 times.

Pour the cold liquid frying oil out of the reservoir. Used frying oil can be poured back into the bottles. Clean the reservoir with hot water and a mild detergent or in the dishwasher. Thoroughly dry the reservoir. Fill the reservoir with new liquid frying oil.

Check each time if the level of the liquid frying oil is between the minimum and maximum level. Never wash away fat or oil through the sink.

CLEANING THE FRYER

Before cleaning always unplug the fryer and let it cool down completely. Remove the basket, the oil filter, the element and the reservoir out of the fryer. Clean the lid, the basket, the oil filter and the reservoir in the dishwasher or with hot water and a mild detergent. Ensure that the parts are dried thoroughly after cleaning.

Clean the exterior of the fryer with a damp cloth and when needed a mild detergent.

Never use any abrasives! Never immerse the heating element, power cord or plug in water or other liquids.
