Frying basket The basket is designed to hold the food to be fried The basket handle must be unfolded from the frying container before use Capacity We recommend a limit of 500g of chips for deep frying Please refer to Useful hints for deep frying Inserting the frying basket Take off the lid Lower the basket carefully into the hot oil fat Removing the frying basket drain position Use the basket handle to lift the basket out of the oil fat and place it on the holding bracket on the rim of the container this position allows the oil fat to drain back into the container see picture Once the excess oil has been drained off lift out the basket and if frying is completed replace the lid Useful hints for deep frying Food cooked in oil is especially tasty and nourishing When the food is put into the hot oil it is immediately sealed as a result of the high temperature preventing fat from entering the food or juice from escaping That way essential proteins vitamins and minerals etc are preserved Please observe the following 1 Do not overfill the frying basket otherwise the temperature of the oil fat will drop and subsequently cause the food to absorb an excessive amount of fat oil 2 The quality of often used oil fat cannot be improved by mixing with fresh oil The fresh oil fat would be spoiled after a short while as well 3 To prevent the oil fat from frothing over make
3. Do not allow the power cord to hang free the cord must be kept well away from hot parts of the appliance Always switch off and remove the plug from the wall socket after use as well as in cases of any malfunction and during cleaning e When removing the plug from the wall socket never pull on the power cord always grip the plug itself Do not let the power cord hang free e No responsibility can be will be accepted if damage results from improper use or if these instructions are not complied with This appliance is intended for domestic use only and not for commercial applications In order to comply with safety regulations and to avoid hazards repairs of electrical appliances must be carried out by qualified personnel If repairs are needed please send the appliance to one of our customer service departments The address can be found in the appendix to this manual Thermal safety cut out Should the oil fat level fall below the safe level for operation the integral thermal safety cut out will be activated and the heating element is switched off If this occurs allow sufficient time for the appliance to cool down then add the required amount of oil fat Use the reset lever inside the power cord storage compartment to reset the safety cut out Only after a reset can the appliance be used again Should the safety cut out be activated repeatedly despite a sufficient oil fat amount in the frying container t
4. aware of the dangers that may occur when operating electrical appliances Therefore keep such appliances away from children Always place the appliance on a heat resistant work surface impervious to splashes and stains with sufficient surrounding space Do not place the appliance underneath any wall cupboards or hanging objects nor directly against a wall or in a corner Do not melt solidified fat in an empty fryer the heating element will not be fully submerged and may therefore overheat possibly causing the fat to ignite at contact Oil fat that has been used many times before may ignite when overheated If this occurs remove the plug from the wall socket and place the lid on the appliance in order to smother the flames Never pour water into hot or burning oil fat Never carry or move the appliance when it is hot e g during or immediately after use because of the danger of tripping Exercise extreme caution hot oil fat can cause severe burns Caution some parts of the appliance become hot during operation and dangerously hot steam may be emitted from the lid Do not touch hot oil fat with your fingers Do not insert any plastic cutlery into the hot oil fat Do not pour hot oil fat into plastic containers Do not connect the appliance to the power supply without the frying container inserted Do not under any circumstances connect the heating element to the power supply when it has been removed from the unit

7. idified fat may be added straight into the frying container if it already contains liquid fat up to the minimum level mark When using solidified fat approx 3 kg is needed The fat should be cut into smaller pieces first and melted in a separate pot ensuring that it just reaches a liquid state but is not over heated this is to avoid the danger of burns when pouring the fat into the frying container afterwards Please observe the maximum mark Removable heating element Before the appliance is connected to the mains the power cord must be pulled out to its full length from the storage compartment and the heating element must be fitted The deep fryer is equipped with a safety switch ensuring that the appliance can be operated only if the heating element and frying container are fitted Using the deep fryer Before inserting the plug into a wall socket ensure that the frying container and the heating element have been fitted as instructed and the frying container has been filled with oil fat to a safe level After frying is completed turn the temperature control knob back to its lowest position and remove the plug from the wall socket Temperature control knob The temperature control is used to select the desired temperature level Indicator lamps The red indicator lamp is on while the appliance is heating up The green indicator lamp lights up on once the pre set temperature level has been reached
8. s life span depends mainly on the kind and quantity of food fried The life span can be extended by filtering the frying oil fat after each cycle of use The frying oil fat may be stored inside the deep fryer if the unit is kept closed and stored in a cool place However ensure that the appliance containing the hot oil fat has sufficiently cooled down Nutrition conscious deep frying For nutritious healthy deep frying we recommend to use a temperature setting of no higher than 175 C when deep frying amylaceous food i e food with a higher than average starch content With the reduced frying temperature and with an equally reduced amount of food in the frying basket the build up of substances detrimental to health is limited to a minimum General care and cleaning Before cleaning the appliance ensure it is disconnected from the power supply and has cooled down completely To avoid the risk of electric shock do not clean the appliance with water and do not immerse it in water Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning solutions Before the appliance is used for the first time the frying container and the basket should be thoroughly cleaned The inside of the lid may be cleaned with a slightly damp lint free cloth To prevent any remaining water from mixing with the oil fat ensure that all parts are thoroughly dried To remove the oil from the frying container wait until the oil fat has cooled down sufficiently bu
