Safety
Thermal safety cut-out
This appliance is equipped with a thermal safety cut-out that switches the appliance off if it
overheats.
This may happen if there is not enough oil or fat in the fryer or if blocks of solid fat are being
melted in the fryer, which will prevent the heating element from being able to give off its heat.
Take the following measures when the thermal safety cut-out has switched the appliance off:
1 Unplug the appliance.
2 Let the oil or fat cool down.
3 Carefully press the reset button at the front of the fryer, above the top right-hand corner of
the display, with a very small screwdriver or an unfolded small paperclip (fig. 1).
Now the appliance is ready for use again.
B
If the appliance still does not work after you have reset it, please turn to your Philips dealer or a
service centre authorised by Philips.
