1 lid, detachable
1 fork holder
6 fondue forks

Instructions

WARNING:

- Risk of burning! Do not fill past the MAX mark! Hot oil may splatter out and cause injuries!

WARNING:

• Use frying oils. Frying oils are heat-resistant. Other oils/fats start smoking at low temperatures. There is the risk of spontaneous ignition.
• Only use oil of one kind in one frying process. Mixtures of different oils/ fats can foam. In this case, oil may overflow uncontrollably.

• If the appliance should catch fire, do not try to extinguish the flames with water in any case. Close the appliance lid. Extinguish the flames with a moist towel.

• Only operate the appliance on a level and heat-resistant work surface.

• Do not move the appliance when it is in operation.

• Only grab the appliance by the intended handles.

• Avoid splattering. Fill the basket outside of the deep-fryer.

• Only fry inside the frying basket.
• If the appliance is used as a deep-fryer, keep the lid closed.

Electrical connection

1. Check if the mains voltage that you want to use matches the one of the appliance. You will find the information about this on the type plate on the appliance.
2. Connect the power cord to a properly installed protective contact socket.

Putting into use

Before using for the first time

1. Remove the packaging. The deep-fat frying basket with handle is located in the deep-fat fryer. The handle can be inserted into the deep-fat frying basket.
2. We recommend cleaning the lid, housing and all accessories as described under "Cleaning".

Useful hints for use

1. Always remove the food remaining in the oil (e.g. pieces of French fries). Change the oil after using it 8-10 times.
2. Deep frying fat must be capable of being heated to high temperatures. Use high quality frying oil or frying grease. Do not use margarine, olive oil or butter: they are not fit for frying, because they start to smoke already at low temperatures. In order to reduce the acrylamide content of food containing starch (potatoes, cereals) the temperature during deep-fat frying should not exceed 170°C (or possibly 175°C). Furthermore, the frying time should be kept as short as possible and the food only fried until it turns golden yellow.
3. Choose the right frying temperature and check the conditions of the food to be fried. A rule of thumb is that pre-fried foods require a higher temperature than raw foods.
4. Do not carry or move the deep fryer if the oil or grease is still hot.
5. When frying dough-like foods scrape off the excess dough and put the pieces carefully into the oil.
6. Do not overfill the frying basket.
7. Rub dry humid foods with a cloth before frying.

Using the unit

Deep-Fat Frying

1. Make sure that the appliance is unplugged and switched off.
2. Open the lid.
3. Remove the frying basket and fill the container with oil or grease (maximum 1.0 l). The filling level must be located between the minimum and the maximum level.

CAUTION:

• If you use fat, divide it up into small pieces and place it on the floor of the deep frying vessel.
  • Under no circumstances should you place the fat in the deep frying basket!

• Close the lid. Insert the plug into a properly installed power socket. The "POWER" control lamp lights up.

• Adjust the temperature control device to the desired temperature. The "HEAT" control lamp lights up. Once the set temperature is reached, the LED switches off.
• Now fill the deep-fry basket. Please ensure that the basket is not filled above the hot fat.
• Open the lid and fill the frying basket with the food to be fried. Remove the handle from the deep-fat frying basket.
• Close the lid.
• At the end of the frying time (the frying time is specified on the package of the food or in the recipe) open carefully the lid (Warning! Hot steam may be released!). Now remove the deep-fat frying basket with the handle.
• Let the oil drip from the food being fried.

Fondue

CAUTION:

- The device is not suitable for making cheese or chocolate fondue. These ingredients could burn or boil over in the deep-fat frying vessel.

1. Make sure that the appliance is unplugged and switched off.
2. The lid can be removed by pulling upwards. In order to do so, open the lid and separate it from the hinge of the housing.
3. Remove the frying basket and fill the container with oil or grease (maximum 1.0 l). The filling level must be located between the minimum and the maximum level.

CAUTION:

• If you use fat, divide it up into small pieces and place it on the floor of the deep frying vessel.
  • Under no circumstances should you place the fat in the deep frying basket!

• Put the fork holder in place.

• Insert the plug into power socket. The "POWER" control lamp lights up.
• Adjust the temperature control to approx. 130^ C. The "HEAT" control lamp lights up. Once the set temperature is reached, the LED switches off.

With a wooden stick (e.g. shashlik spit or wooden cooking spoon) you can test whether the correct temperature has been reached. When this is inserted into the oil, small air bubbles should rise up along the wooden stick. Alternatively, you can place a piece of the food to be fried into the hot oil. If bubbles are formed, the frying fat has reached the right temperature.

1. Place the pieces of meat on the fondue forks and then dip them into the oil. Depending on the size of the meat pieces, the cooking process takes between 4 and 7 minutes, i.e. the smaller the pieces of meat or other food are, the faster they are cooked.

CAUTION:

• Place the ingredients carefully into the hot oil. Care is required as you are frying in an open vessel and it is not possible to avoid oil splashes.

• Dry off the ingredients beforehand with a cloth.

• Adjust the temperature with the regulator such that the oil simmers.

After Use

To switch the device off, first turn the temperature regulator to OFF and remove the plug from the socket.

Allow the frying oil a considerable time to cool down. Before continuing to use the full frying pot, please ensure that it is no longer at a dangerous temperature.

Cleaning

WARNING:

• Always pull out the plug from the mains socket before cleaning and wait until the unit has cooled down.
• Do not immerse the device in water! It could result in an electric shock or fire.

CAUTION:

• Do not use any wire brush or other abrasive objects.
• Do not use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
• Pour out the used oil to the side.
• Clean removable parts and accessories that have come in contact with food or oil by hand in a rinsing bath.
• Clean the deep-fry container with a moist towel and dish-washing detergent.
• Wipe out the deep-fry container with the moist towel from the inside.
