RECOMMENDATIONS

1. Always place the deep fryer on a stable surface and keep all flammable materials away from the unit during operation.
2. Make sure that the deep fryer is never near or on a switched-on stove or cooking surface.
3. Before you use the deep fryer, it must be filled with the required amount of oil or fat. **Never use the deep fryer without oil or fat because this could damage the unit **
4. Never move the deep fryer during use. The oil becomes very hot. Wait until the unit and the oil have cooled down completely before moving.
5. This deep fryer is protected with a thermal safety device which switches the machine off automatically if it overheats.
6. Never immerse the appliance in water.
7. Never leave the deep fryer unattended while in use.
8. Always ensure the safety of children if they are near the deep fryer.
9. If the deep fryer and/or cord are damaged, they must be repaired by a professional service department. Do not try to repair the unit yourself or replace the damaged cord. This requires special tools.
10. Be sure not to damage the heating element. (Do not bend or dent.)
11. The electrical component is equipped with a safety heat switch, which ensures that the heating element can only function when the element is correctly placed on the fryer.
12. In the case of overheating, the thermal protective device will switch off the fryer automatically. This device is a small red button found either on the underside of the electrical component, or in the cord storage compartment. It can be re-activated by pushing the button in again with a pointed object (e.g. a pen). **Disconnect from power outlet before re-activating!
