Deep-frying function
This function is used for frying on the two side hotplates on the
right-hand side, regulating the temperature of the pan.

saved. The oil and fat do not overheat.

base of the pan is the right diameter.

automatic regulation not to function. A protective screen may
be used without affecting the automatic regulation
