Philips HD6106 User Manual
Page 7
- This appliance is intended for household use only. If the appliance is used improperly or for
professional or semi-professional purposes or if it is not used according to the instructions
in the user manual, the guarantee becomes invalid and Philips refuses any liability for damage
caused.
- Fry food golden-yellow instead of dark or brown and remove burnt remnants. Do not fry
starchy foods, especially potato and cereal products, at a temperature above 175°C (to minimise
the production of acrylamide).
- Prevent water and/or ice from coming into contact with oil or fat, as this causes heavy spattering
or violent bubbling of the oil of fat. To achieve this, remove all excess ice from frozen ingredients
before you fry them and dry ingredients thoroughly before you fry them. Do not overfill the
basket. After cleaning, dry all parts thoroughly before you put oil or fat in the fryer.
- Do not fry Asian rice cakes (or similar types of food) in this appliance. This might cause heavy
spattering or violent bubbling of the oil or fat.
- Make sure the fryer is always filled with oil or fat to a level between the ‘MIN’ and ‘MAX’
indications on the inside of the inner bowl to prevent either overflowing or overheating.
- Do not switch on the appliance before you have filled it with oil or fat, as this can damage
the appliance.

preparing for use
1
Clean the appliance before you use it for the first time (see chapter ‘Cleaning’).
Make sure that all parts are dry before you fill the fryer with oil or fat.
2
Press the lid release button to open the lid (Fig. 2).
3
Consult the oil/fat table to determine how much oil or fat you have to put in the
fryer (Fig. 3).
4
Fill the fryer with oil, liquid frying fat or melted solid fat to a level between the ‘MIN’
and ‘MAX’ indications and close the lid (Fig. 4).
Do not switch on the appliance before you have filled it with oil or fat.
oil and fat
Never mix different types of oil or fat and never add fresh oil or fat to used oil or fat.
- We advise you to use frying oil or liquid frying fat. Preferably use vegetable oil or fat that is rich
in unsaturated fats (e.g. linoleic acid), such as soy oil, peanut oil, maize oil or sunflower oil.
- Because oil and fat lose their favourable properties rather quickly, you have to change the oil or
fat regularly (after 10-12 times).
- Always change the oil or fat if it starts foaming when it is heated, if it has a strong smell or taste
or if it turns dark and/or syrupy.
solid fat
You can also use solid frying fat. In that case, extra precautions are necessary to prevent the fat from
spattering and the heating element from overheating or becoming damaged.
1
If you want to use new blocks of fat, melt them slowly over a low heat in a normal pan.
2
Pour the melted fat carefully into the fryer.
3
Store the fryer with the resolidified fat still in it at room temperature.
