2.1 Safety use of the appliance
The fryer should never be allowed to work empty.
Should this happen by mistake, the safety thermostat will cut off the fryer.
An overfilled basket or or filled with products that are too wet (eg. ice crystals on frozen
food) will make the oil froth and this will reduce the quqlity of the fried food!
If oil catches fire, use the cover to extinguish the flames. Put the main switch on 0 and pull
out the plug!
NEVER POUR WATER ONTO BURNING OIL !
To extinguish burning oil, it is necessary to have a fire extinguisher or a fixed extinguish-
ing system at hand.
Never move the fryer when it is hot!
Before taking out the regeneration container to change the oil, wait for the oil to cool
down to a max. of 100 °C.
Old and spoiled oil will more easily foam over catch fire.

However before contacting it, check:
• That the fuse have not gone.
• If the electric plug is pushed right
