Workplace

Important:

Never place this device on or next to hot surfaces (e.g. hot stoves). Only use it on a even, stable and a heat resisting surface. It is important that no inflammable items are near to the device. Do not place the device on the edge of the table so that it cannot be touched by children or fall down when touched.

Fat and oil:

Important: Deep frying fat must be heatable to a high temperature. The smoking point must be at about 220^ .

The food must be put in at a temperature of between 170^ and 190^ .

Deep frying oil is suitable. Never switch deep fat fryer on when empty.

Pour oil into the unheated container.

Cold-pressed and non-hardened oil or fat such as olive oil, wheat oil, linseed oil, pork fat and butter are unsuitable.

Important: Never mix oil and fat because the deep fat fryer may foam over.

It is also dangerous to mix different kinds of oil or fat!

The filling level indicator is inside the container. The MAX filling level may not be exceeded, and the minimum filling level must not be undershot.

Risk of scalding!

Be extremely careful with hot fat, and keep children away.

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 reduces 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, disconnect the plug form the power supply and extinguish burning fat by covering

with the lid. Never extinguish using water!

Operation

Never operate the device without oil and check the MIN / MAX filling quantity.

The oil level, including food, must never exceed the MAX mark.
- Connect the cable.

• Set the desired temperature between 80 and 190^ with the help of the temperature regulator.

The control lamp shows that the device is heating up.
- When the temperature is reached, the light switches off.
The basket with the food can now be placed in the deep fryer.
- Set the temperature control back to OFF after deep-frying.

Important note on the use of hard fat (e.g. coconut fat):

• Cut the fat into small pieces and put it in the container. Do not put in the basket! Set the thermostat to the melting setting to carefully melt the fat.
• If the fat has hardened after use in the deep fryer, it must also be melted again on the melting setting.
  As soon as the fat has melted, the desired frying temperature can be set.

Monitoring the deep fat frying procedure

The frying procedure can be monitored through the inspection window in the lid. Lifting the basket a little may give you a better view.

When the food is cooked

• Open lid.
• Caution - lid may be hot!

• Lift frying basket and hook onto edge of pan.

• Once the fat has drained, remove frying basket and empty. Do not season the food over the fryer - this will protect the fat and the fryer.

• If no more frying is being carried out, turn down the temperature and disconnect plug from power supply.

Important Tips:

According the latest knowledge of researchers, following max. temperatures should be obeyed and all foods should be fried max to a gold colour:

• 170^ C for all potatoes,breaded food and all other starch containing products
• 190^ for meat and poultry with no breading

In opposite to the tips on the packaging of frozen food we advise to defrost the food short before frying to avoid any ice inside the fryer.

After deep fat frying:

Clean the fat:

Residue from the breadcrumb coating or the food should be removed from the frying fat or oil at regular intervals.

• First allow the fat to cool after frying, then carefully pour the fat into a metal pan with handles.
• Coating residue and water in the oil must be removed.
• Clean the frying basket and the pan (see paragraph "Cleaning and care").
• Hook frying basket into the fryer (draining position, place kitchen paper in basket as a filter).
• Slowly pour the fat back into the fryer through the filter paper.
  Only use the paper fat filter once.

Replace the frying fat if:

It has turned brown.
It has an unpleasant smell
- Starts to smoke sooner than expected

Pour the liquid oil that has not yet fully cooled down into a container with a closure. Used fat and oil should not be poured onto compost or down the drain. If large quantities are being produced, ask your local authority for the location of a collection point.

Practical tips for frying

Dry the food carefully before putting it into the fat, tap superfluous flour, press the breading firmly. Food containing much protein such as fish, poultry, meat and seafood can be fried in the raw if they are well dried. Food containing little protein such as vegetables and fruit should be coated with breadcrumbs or with batter, hereby the pores close quickly. The crust is also ideal for frying meat, poultry, fish and seafood.

Fondue

When the device is used as a Fondue, remove the lid by pulling the lid upwards.

Put the Fondue ring on the appliance for the Fondue forks.

Leave the frying basket inside the appliance, as the bottom will be not damaged or food which has fallen off can be removed easier from the fat.
