When using electrical appliances, basic safety
precautions should always be followed, including
the following:
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles and
knobs.
3. To protect against electric shock do not
immerse cord, plug and fryer in water or
other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any
appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and
before cleaning. Allow to cool before
putting on or taking off parts, and before
cleaning the appliance.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a dam-
aged cord or plug or after the appliance
malfunctions, or has been damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to the nearest
authorized service facility for examination,
repair or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not rec-
ommended by the appliance manufacturer
may cause injuries.
8. Do not use outdoors.

tric burner or in a heated oven.
11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an
appliance containing hot oil or other liquids.
12. Always attach plug to appliance first, then
plug cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect,
turn the thermostat to the “OFF” position,
then remove plug from wall outlet.
13. Do not use appliance for other than intend-
ed use.

ket and locked in place.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THIS PRODUCT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY
WARNING
•
Do not use the fryer without oil.
The fryer
will be severly damaged if heated dry.
• This fryer has a thermal cut-out, thus preventing
overheating.
• Plug cord into a 120 volt AC outlet.
• If your product is provided with a polarized
alternating current plug (a plug having one blade
wider than the other), this plug will fit into the
power outlet only one way. This is a safety fea-
ture. If you are unable to insert the plug fully into
the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug
should still fail to fit, contact your electrician to
replace your obsolete outlet. Do not defeat the
safety purpose of the polarized plug.
• Before using the fryer for the first time, wash the
aluminum pot, basket and lid thoroughly with hot
soapy water, carefully dry the pot to maintain its
attractive finish.
• Should the fryer leak, contact your nearest
Service Center or authorized Dealer for qualified
assistance.
• To assure safe operation, oversized foods or
utensils must not be inserted into the fryer.
• Children or infirm persons should not be allowed
to use this product unsupervised.
• Children should not be allowed to play with this
appliance.
• In order to prevent possible injuries or burns, do
not touch any metal parts on the deep fryer
because they may be very hot, use always
appropriate gloves.
• Do not open the tap of oil drain system (if fitted)
when the oil is hot.
• It is totally normal that, on first use, the appliance
emits a “new appliance” smell. If this happens,
aerate the room.
•
Before cleaning and when not in use, make sure that
the power plug is disconnected.
DO NOT USE AN EXTENSION CORD
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the
risks resulting from being entangled in or tripping
over a longer cord.
IF YOUR DEEP FRYER IS SUPPLIED WITH A CORD SET WITH MAGNETIC CONNECTOR:
First fit the magnetic connector to the appliance, as
seen in Figure 3B, making sure that the protruding
part of the connector “
X
” is correctly inserted in the
corresponding slot on the appliance, and then plug
the cable into the power outlet.
Warning
Never leave the appliance plugged into the power
outlet if the magnetic connector is not fitted to the
deep fryer, Figure 3.
If the magnetic connector does not remain in place,
check that it has been inserted correctly, see Figure
3B. If the problem persists, contact an authorised
service centre.
When the appliance is powered, always leave some
free space around the magnetic connector, so as to
prevent it from becoming detached.
Only use a type TA-35PA cord set supplied by
De’longhi authorised service centres.
