Note:
The frying process can be overseen through the
viewing window 1 in the appliance lid.
Solid Cooking Fats
To avoid a spraying of the fat and that the appliance
becomes too hot, please take the following precau-
tions when using solid frying fat:
• When replacing old fat with fresh, first melt the
fresh blocks of fat slowly, under low heat, in a
separate pan. Then carefully pour the molten fat
into the deep fryer. When this has been done,
insert the power plug into a socket and switch
the deep fryer on.
• After use, store the deep fryer with the solidified
fat at room temperatures.
If the fat is too cold, it can splatter on remelting! To
avoid this, use a wooden or plastic implement to
make some holes in the re-solidified fat. Ensure that
the heating element is not damaged when doing
this.
• To melt the fat, switch the appliance on with the
on/off switch 0 and set the temperature dial 8
at 130˚C. The lamp integrated into the on/off
switch 0 comes on.
• Wait until all the fat has melted. Thereby, the
green indicator lamp 9 can, on occasion, go out
and light up again. First set the required frying
temperature when all of the fat has melted.
Timer
You can programme in a countdown of up to 60 mi-
nutes with the timer q:
• Press the button "
" on the timer to switch it on.
• Press the buttons "+" and "-" to set the desired
time in minutes.
• Press on the button " " to start the countdown
of the time. The programmed time will blink twice
to indicate that the countdown of the time has
begun.
Signal tones sound on completion of the countdown.
The short-period timer q switches itself off automati-
cally.
Note:
On expiry of the countdown the heating element 5
is NOT switched off! Therefore pay heed to the signal
tone from the short-period timer q, so as to avoid
spoiling the food being fried.
Note:
When the battery is discharged, exchange it. Always
use a replacement battery of the same type. Pay
heed to the correct polarity when inserting it.
After Frying
• When the food is ready, pull the handle upwards
until the handle locking button w engages.
• Leave the frying basket 3 in this position to drip
off.
• Press the On/Off switch 0. The deep fryer is
now switched off. Remove the power plug from
the wall socket.
• When the food has dripped off, open the ap-
pliance lid by pressing the lid release button 6.
Risk of personal injury!
Never take hold of the frying basket 3 directly after
frying. It is very hot! Lift the frying basket 3 out of
the fryer ONLY by the handle!
• Carefully lift the frying basket 3 out of the deep
fryer. If necessary, shake off any excess oil or fat
over the deep fryer.
• Tip the fried food into a bowl or a sieve (lined
with absorbent kitchen paper!)
