Do not allow the fat to overheat! As soon as the fat is melted, carefully (!) pour it into the deep fryer. Only turn on the deep fryer after it has been filled with fat or oil. If solid fat has been left in the deep fryer in preparation for the appliance’s next use, be sure to first set the thermostat to a low temperature (120°C). Only increase the temperature once the fat has completely melted. APPLICATION The Bourgini Classic Deep Fryer Comfort 2.5 L is an electrically heated deep fryer.
