• The mains plug should only be inserted into a cor- rectly installed 230 V ~ 50 Hz socket with earthing contact. Connected Wattage The total power consumption of this device can be up to 2000 W. With this connected load a separate supply line protected by a 16 A household circuit breaker is recommended. CAUTION: OVERLOAD:

1. Always remove the food remaining in the oil (e.g.

pieces of French fries). After the device has been used several times you should change the oil. Use high quality frying oil or frying grease.

2. Fats and oils must be heatable to high temperatures.

Do not use margarine, olive oil or butter: they are not t for frying, because they start to smoke already at low temperatures. We recommend the use of liquid frying oil.

Please note this important information if you intend to use fat! If you use fat, please divide it up 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!

3. 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.

4. Please note that the safety switch (4) is operated

when the control element is inserted into the guide mechanism.

5. 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.
