Instructions for use
Notes on Using the Fryer
• Regularly remove fried food that have been
left behind in the oil (e.g. pieces of French
fries). After repeated use, you should change
the oil. Use high quality frying oil or frying fat
for frying.
• Fats and oils must be suitable for being heat -
ed to high temperatures. Please do not use
margarine, olive oil or butter. These types of
fat are not suitable for deep frying, as they
may start smoking at low temperatures. We
recommend the use of liquid frying oil.
WARNING: Danger!
• Be sure to replace the fat/oil regularly.
• Never use deep frozen foods!
• Dry moist food with a cloth.
• If foods are too moist (e.g. French fries co -
vered in ice etc.), a strong foam formation
could result, which in a worst case scenario
could cause the hot fat/oil to overflow and
can cause personal injury.
• Please ensure that the safety switch is
activated, when the control element has been
pushed into the guide rail.
• Select the appropriate cooking temperature,
taking note of the nature of the food to be
fried. As a guideline: pre-fried foods require a
higher temperature than raw ones.
• Never carry the fryer, while the oil or fat is
still hot.
• When frying dough-like food remove any
excess dough and carefully place the pieces
into the oil.
• Please make sure that the handle has been
properly attached to the fryer basket.
• Do not fill the fryer more than 2/3 full. Do not
overfill the fryer basket.
NOTE: Maximum filling load
max. 1000 g
Tips for reducing the acrylamide contents
• Acrylamide is a chemical compound. It is pro -
duced in the browning process (deep frying,
baking, roasting and grilling) of food which
contain carbohydrates (starch and sugar)
such as potato and grain products.
• It is assumed that acrylamide damages the
genes and causes cancer. To date the actual
risk to humans is unknown.
• We recommend not to exceed a temperature
of 170°C.
• Furthermore, it is important to keep the
cooking time as short as possible and not to
fry the food in the fryer to more than a golden
colour.
