CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
CAUTION:
ALLOW APPLIANCE TO COMPLETELY COOL BEFORE CLEANING ANY COMPONENT.
• To change or remove the oil, rst allow oil to cool. Then remove the
COOKING TANK from HOUSING. Pour the oil out at the corner.
• To clean the deep frying fat container, wipe the LID and the HOUSING
with a damp cloth and household detergent if necessary. DO NOT
immerse in water.
• The FRYING BASKET can be cleaned with soapy water.
• Ensure that all moisture is removed prior to storage or use.
• Clean the HOUSING after use with a slightly damp cloth.
WARNING:
NEVER add water to the oil!
Oils and fats may burn when overheated. PLEASE BE CAREFUL!
DO NOT forget to switch the device off after use! First turn the thermostat
to the lowest position and then remove the power cord.
WARNING:
Please note this important information if you intend to use fat!
If you use fat, please divide it up into small pieces. Turn the thermostat to
a low temperature and add the pieces slowly. Once the fat has melted and
the correct oil level is reached you can set the desired temperature on the
thermostat.
Under no circumstances should you place the fat in the deep frying
basket!

USEFUL HINTS
1. Before each use remove any food particles (e.g. pieces of french fries).
2. After the device has been used several times you should change the oil.
• Use high quality frying oil or frying grease.
3. Fats and oils must be heatable to high temperatures. DO NOT use
margarine, olive oil or butter: They are not t for frying, because they start
to smoke at low temperatures.
• We recommend oil specically designated as frying oil.
4. In order to reduce the acrylamide content of food containing starch
(potatoes, cereals) the temperature during deep-fat frying should not
exceed 340° F. Furthermore, the frying time should be kept as short as
possible and the food only fried until it turns golden yellow.
5. PLEASE NOTE that the SAFETY BUTTON (8) is operated when the
control element is inserted into the guide mechanism.
6. Choose the right frying temperature and check the conditions of the food to
be fried. A rule of thumb is that pre-fried foods require a higher temperature
than raw foods.
7. DO NOT CARRY OR MOVE THE DEEP FRYER IF THE OIL OR GREASE
IS STILL HOT.
8. When frying dough-like foods, scrape off the excess dough and put the
pieces carefully into the oil.
9. Please ensure that the handle of the deep fat frying basket has been
correctly attached. (FIGURE 1 - Page 2)
10. The deep fat FRYING BASKET must not be more than 2/3 full. DO NOT
overll the frying basket.
11. Rub dry humid foods with a cloth before frying.
12. When frying high moisture foods keep LID off and allow oil to completely
cool before replacing LID.
CAUTION:
In the case of foodstuffs which are too moist (e.g. frozen chips etc.) large
amounts of foam may form, which under certain circumstances may cause the
oil to overow.

GENERAL USE
1. Make sure that the appliance is unplugged and switched off (The control
lamps are off).
2. Take the LID off the deep fryer.
3. Remove the FRYING BASKET and ll the container with oil or fat (maximum
3 liters). For fat see caution on previous page. The lling level must be
located between the minimum and the maximum level (maximum 3 liters).
4. Insert the plug into a standard 120 V AC outlet. The red control lamp lights up.
Set the desired temperature by turning the temperature control knob (3).
5. The green control lamp lights up. Once the set temperature has been reached
the green control lamp goes off. Place the frying basket containing the items
to be fried slowly and carefully into the hot oil or fat.
6. T
he green control lamp switches ON and OFF several times during frying. This
is normal and it indicates that the temperature is controlled by the thermostat
and is being maintained. Once the frying time is over (the frying times are to
be found on the packaging of the food or in the recipe), please take out the
FRYING BASKET.
7. Let the oil drip from the food being fried.
8. In order to switch off the machine, please turn the THERMOSTAT to OFF and
remove the plug from the socket. Allow unit to completely cool, then wind the
main cord up in the form of a spiral in the cord compartment.
WARNING:
Always remove plug from outlet, and allow the unit to completely cool,
before cleaning.
CAUTION:
• DO NOT use any wire brush or other abrasive objects.
• DO NOT use any acidic or abrasive detergents.
• UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES SHOULD THE DEVICE BE
IMMERSED IN WATER FOR CLEANING.
