using your fryer
Switching on and preheating
1. Plug in and switch on the fryer from the mains supply.
2. To set the temperature, rotate the temperature dial until the pointer aligns with the
required temperature. The temperature indicator will illuminate red. The maximum
temperature is 190°C.The fryer will automatically control the oil temperature to
prevent overheating.
3. When the temperature indicator turns green the fryer has preheated to the correct
temperature and is ready to use. Only start cooking when the oil in the fryer is at the
correct temperature.
Cooking
1. From the bottom, lift the basket handle up to the horizontal position. You will feel the
basket handle lock into position when it is fully raised.
2. Stand back from the fryer as there may be a build up of steam, and press the lid
release button to open the lid.
3. Taking care, add the desired quantity of food to the basket. Do not add too much food
at one time.
4. Close the lid then release the basket lock and fold the handle downwards to lower the
basket into the hot oil.
5. If desired, set the timer to the required cooking time (see page 7). Alternatively, the
fryer can be used without the timer.
6.
Cook food thoroughly - the outside of the food may look cooked before the inside is
completely cooked. Always follow cooking timings and guidelines on packet foods or
recipes.
7. When the food is cooked, lift the basket handle to the horizontal position until it is
locked. Allow any excess oil to drain away.
8. Stand back from the fryer, as there may be a build up of steam, and press the lid
release button to open the lid.
9. Remove the basket from the fryer and serve the food. Always soak up excess oil with
kitchen paper. Replace the basket in the fryer. Always use the basket handle to hold
or carry the basket. The basket itself will be very hot during and after cooking.
After use
Never move the fryer until it has fully cooled.
1.
When you have finished cooking, turn the temperature control fully anticlockwise.
2. Switch off and unplug the fryer from the mains supply.
3. Allow the fryer to cool down (this can take 2-3 hours).
