Melting deep-frying fat

The fat should be at room or refrigerator
temperature, not frozen.

desired temperature.
If you wish to deep fry just after using the fat-melting

¨
position. As soon as a signal sounds, turn the
control knob
further left to the desired
temperature (don't turn the control knob right

¨
and
[
light up on the display. Afterwards, the
appliance automatically heats up to the preset
temperature. Once the temperature has been

the appliance temperature is below 120 °F.
If the fat-melting setting is activated at an
