• Never immerse the control/heating element in water and do not clean these parts under running water.
• Make sure that all parts are completely dry before filling the fryer with oil or liquid fat.
• It is recommended to use oil or liquid fat for frying. Solid fat can also be used for frying. In this case,
• special care must be taken so that the grease does not splash out and the heating element overheats.
  (See section "Solid frying fat" and "Tips").
• Never turn on the fryer unless it is filled with oil or liquid fat.
• Only use oil or fat that does not make foam and is suitable for

frying. This information is shown on the packaging or label.

• The fryer must be filled with oil or fat between the two marks on the inside of the container,
• always make sure that the fryer is filled with sufficient fat or oil before starting the fryer.
• A thermal safety cut-out switches the fryer off in the event of overheating (see section on "Safety and reliability").
• These instructions indicate the maximum quantities for frying must not be exceeded (see Table).
• Hot steam is released during frying. Keep a safe distance from the steam.
• When the fryer is in use, it must be kept out of the reach of children.
• Do not let the cable hang over the edge of a table or work surface on which the fryer is standing.
  After use, turn the thermostat to the lowest position (turn the thermostat fully anticlockwise).
• Disconnect the mains plug and allow the oil or fat to cool down. Do not move the fryer until fryer
  and its contents have cooled.

SECURITY

Safety thermal cut-off

• In case of overheating, the thermal cut-out will switch off the fryer.
• This can occur if the fryer is not filled with enough oil or the solid frying fat in the fryer melts.
• In the case of solid fat, it melts in the fryer.
• In the case of solid grease, the heating element is incapable of irradiating.
• the heat produced quickly enough.
• If the safety thermal cut-out switches off the fryer, proceed as follows:
• Allow the oil or fat to cool.
• Carefully press the (reset switch) on the back of the control element with a small screwdriver.
• The fryer is now ready for use again.

Safety switch

The safety switch in the control element ensures that the heating element can only be switched on when the control element locks with a click.

Cold zone

During the frying process, food particles accumulate at the bottom of the pan.

The heating element is located under the tank and heats the oil/ grease in the upper part of the tank.

In a grease fryer, the oil/grease between the base and the heating element remains relatively cool (cold zone).

This prevents the food particles in this area from burning and offers the advantage of being able to use

oil or grease more than once.

Frying with solid fat

We recommend the use of oil or liquid fat for frying in this fryer.
- Solid fat can also be used for frying. The following precautions should be taken to prevent fat splashing and overheating of the fryer:
- If using fresh fat, allow the fat blocks to melt slowly over moderate heat in a normal frying pan. Carefully pour the melted fat into the fryer. Plug the appliance into the mains and turn on the deep fryer (see "frying" section)
- After use, store the fryer with the re-solidified fat at room temperature. If the fat is too cold.
- Cannot splash when overheated!
- To prevent this from happening, prick the solid grease with a fork several times, taking care not to damage the resistor.
- Do not touch the upper and lower casing of the appliance. They can become very hot during operation. Use the handle instead.
- Do not cover the appliance with any objects.

FRYING

• Insert the plug into the socket, the ON/OFF light will illuminate.
• Turn the temperature control knob to the desired setting.
• The oily fat is heated to the desired temperature within 10 to 15 minutes.
• If oil or liquid fat is used, the basket can remain in the fryer while heating. The basket can also be left in the fryer if the fat around it solidifies.
• Remove the basket from the fryer and fill the product to be fried.
• Do not exceed the maximum filling quantities specified in these instructions (see Table).
• Carefully place the basket back into the fryer and place the lid on the pan.
• During the frying process, occasionally remove the basket from the fat oil and carefully shake the contents.

AFTER FRYING

After frying, remove the lid and place the basket on top so that the oil drips out.
- Carefully lift the basket out of the pan. If necessary, shake off excess oil or grease from the fryer.
- Place the fried product in a bowl or colander (line with absorbent kitchen paper).
- When you have finished frying, turn the fryer off by turning the temperature control knob all the way to the left. Disconnect the mains plug from the mains socket.
- If the fryer is not used regularly. It is recommended to store the liquid oil or fat after cooling in a container, preferably in the refrigerator or other cool place. Filter the oil or fat through a fine sieve in the container to remove food particles from the oil or fat. To empty the fryer, remove the lid, basket and control/heating element. Remove the container from the fryer and pour out the oil or fat (see section "Cleaning").

If the fryer contains solid fat, allow the fryer to the fat solidifies in the fryer and store the fat in the fryer (see section "Solid frying fat").

TIPS Homemade crisps

How to make delicious and crispy potato crisps:

Potatoes intended for frying must be nutritious and show no signs of blemishes.
Floury or firm potatoes should be used for frying.
After peeling the potatoes, cut them as desired (strips or slices).
- Soak the potatoes in water for about an hour before use. This releases some of the sugar, one of the main substances responsible for the formation of acrylamide.
- Allow the potatoes to dry thoroughly.
Always fry home fries twice.
- First for 4-6 minutes at 160^ and then 2-4 minutes at 175^ maximum.
- When frying for the second time, remove the basket from the fryer several times and stir to loosen the potatoes. This will give them all an even, golden colour.
- Deep-frozen Chips are pre-cooked, so you only need to fry them once. Follow the instructions on the packaging.
- Deep-frozen products
- Deep-frozen products (-16 to -18°C) cool the oil or fat considerably, so they do not fry quickly enough and may absorb too much oil or fat.

This can be avoided in the following way:

• Do not fry large quantities at a time (see table).
• Heat the oil for at least 15 minutes before adding the product.
• Set the thermostat to the temperature specified in these instructions or on the product packaging.
• It is preferable to let the deep-frozen product thaw at room temperature. Remove as much ice and water as possible before placing the product in the fryer.
• Place the product slowly and carefully into the fryer, as deep-frozen products have a high risk of freezing.
• The tendency to sharply bubble hot oil or fat.

HOW TO ELIMINATE OFF-FLAVOURS

• Some foods, especially fish, release liquids when frying. These liquids accumulate in the frying oil or fat and affect the smell and taste of other products fried later in the same oil or fat. The taste of the oil or fat can be neutralised in the following way:
• Heat the oil or fat to 160^ and add two thin slices of bread or some parsley to the fryer. Wait until the oil or fat stops bubbling and remove the bread or parsley with a skimmer. The taste of the fat in the oil becomes neutral again.

HEALTHY EATING

Nutritionists recommend the use of vegetable oils and fats containing unsaturated fatty acids (e.g. linoleic acid). However, these oils and fats lose their positive properties more quickly than other types and should therefore be changed more frequently. The following information is for guidance only:

• Change the oil or fat regularly. If the fryer is mainly used for fries or chips and the oil or fat is sieved after each use. It can be used 10 to 12 times.
• Do not use the oil for more than six months. Follow the instructions on the container.
  In general, oil or fat cannot be used for a long time if it is used for frying foodstuffs containing

mainly protein, such as fish meat.

• Do not mix new oil with used oil.
• Change the oil or grease if it starts foaming when heated, develops a strange taste or odour, or becomes dark and/or syrupy.
  as well as consistency.

PROVISION

The best way to dispose of used oil or liquid fat is to pour it back into the original plastic bottle and close it tightly. Solid fat should be allowed to solidify in the fryer and then removed (e.g. with a spoon or spatula) and wrapped in newspaper. The bottles or newspaper should be placed in the fryer in the dustbin or disposed of in accordance with applicable national regulations.
