Be extremely careful with hot fat, and keep children away.16 Assembly of the handle on the frying basket ฀ DF 300

Deep fat frying Place the prepared food into the frying basket and distribute over the entire surface. Do not place too much food in the fryer. Then slowly immerse the food in the fat. Close the filter lid again. The filter lid provides protection from fat splashes and re- duces the smell of fat. Observe the procedure through the lid window. If the fat foams up excessively, open lid and raise and lower the basket several times by raising and lowering the handle until the foaming subsides. Caution! Used or contaminated fat or oil can self-ignite if overheated, which is why the oil should be replaced in good time. In the event of a fire, discon- nect the plug form the power supply and extinguish burning fat by covering with the lid. Never extinguish using water!17 A) Filter intake B) Detachable lid C) Lid window D) Frying basket E) Detachable handle F) Housing G) Panel Operation ∙ Never operate the device without oil and check the MIN / MAX filling quan- tity. ∙ Connect the cable.
