BEFORE USE

• Remove all packaging from the unit.
• Remove the lid, basket, handle and any accessory from the appliance.
• Before you use the deep fat fryer for the first time, we recommend that you clean the lid, bowl, basket, handle and housing of the deep fat fryer with warm soapy water with a soft cloth.

DISASSEMBLING THE DEEP FAT FRYER

• Remove the control panel from the appliance. To do this, gently pull the control panel upwards until it is released.
  Take the interior bowl with your two hands and pull it up gently.

ASSEMBLING THE DEEP FAT FRYER

• Stand the appliance on a dry horizontal surface.
• Place the bowl back in the housing and push it downwards.
• Replace the control panel and the accessories. To replace the control panel, firmly slide the control panel downward into the location grooves on the back of the housing until it is locked.

NOTE: The appliance will only operate when the control panel is correctly fitted to the outer jacket.

• Press the end of the basket's handle together, insert its pins into the holes foreseen on the basket and unfold the handle of the basket until it is locked to allow rising the basket easily.
• Put the remaining power cord length in the cord storage in the back of the appliance.

FIRSTUSE

• When using the appliance for the first time, pour the required amount of oil into the bowl, making sure that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks indicated inside the bowl.
  We recommend that you use liquid oil that is suitable for deep fat frying. Check the label on the bottle. If you wish to use a solid fat (see also the preceding safeguards), cut the fat into small pieces. Plug in the appliance, put the thermostat on the minimum position ("MIN") and add the pieces of fat slowly. When the fat has melted, set the thermostat to the desired temperature. WARNING: FAILURE TO OBSERVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS WILL DAMAGE YOUR DEEP FAT FRYER.

PREHEATING

When the appliance has been switched on, set the thermostat on the desired temperature. To reach a stable and correct temperature for use, it is necessary to wait 10 to 15 minutes. During this time, the temperature control light will go on and off several times. A good preheating will allow you to have browned and crispy fries.

USE

Plug in the appliance and set the thermostat to the desired temperature. The power light and the pilot light will illuminate. As soon as the desired temperature is reached, the pilot light will go out. When the temperature falls, the thermostat will be activated again, and the pilot light will illuminate. It will go out again as soon as the temperature is reached.
It is forbidden to place the lid on the deep fat fryer when it is in use. Only put the lid on the appliance when the appliance has cooled down to avoid dust getting into the oil.
- When the fryer has reached the desired temperature, raise the basket using the handle and attach it to the edge of the fryer.
- Place the food into the basket slowly to avoid splashes and lower the basket fully into the oil or fat.
- When the food is ready, raise the basket by lifting the handle and attach it to the edge of the fryer in order to let the food drain.
If necessary you can take the basket out of the appliance.
- Ensure the food is thoroughly cooked inside and out.
- Your deep fat fryer does not have a separate ON/OFF switch. After use, turn the thermostat to its "MIN" position and unplug the appliance. Never move the appliance as long as the oil or fat is still hot.

FOR BEST RESULTS

Always dry food well before frying. Very wet' food can cause the oil to foam' and may overflow.
The foodstuffs for frying should be roughly of the same size to ensure the food cooks evenly and thoroughly.
- Many types of food may need to be coated before frying - typical coatings are batter or breadcrumbs.

Always wait until the fryer has reached the desired temperature and the pilot light has gone out, before adding the food.
- Do not overfill the basket.

CAUTION: This fryer has a built-in safety cut-off switch that triggers if the unit accidentally overheats (e.g. temperature control fails to function). Should this happen, firstly switch off and unplug the deep fat fryer. Wait until the element cools down (about 15 minutes). Then press the restart button situated in the back of the control panel, above the cord storage, using a toothpick. This will reset the deep fat fryer. Your deep fat fryer is now ready for use. To make sure this does not happen again, please read the instruction manual thoroughly.

RECIPES

• Fresh chips are best fried in two stages.
• Use 'old' potatoes (no 'new' potatoes). Cut the potatoes into equal sizes. Rinse the chipped potatoes under running water to reduce the starch level. Dry thoroughly and separate the pieces.

  For 500g of chips, fry for 6 minutes on 180^ then raise the basket.
• Wait until the temperature light goes out again, lower the basket and fry for a further 2 minutes.
• Raise the basket and let the chips drain.
• For best results, before serving gently dab the chips with absorbent paper to remove excess oil.
• Frying times may vary slightly depending on the type of potatoes used and the thickness of the chips.

Onion Rings

• Frying temperature - 175^ for 4 to 5 minutes.
• Peel the onions and slice. Separate the slices into rings.
• Dip the rings into a bowl of seasoned milk.
• Then dust the rings in plain flour.
