• Melt the pieces of new solid frying fat in a pan at a low heat. Watch over
the pan at all times and keep it out of the reach of children.
• Turn off the heat as soon as the fat has melted. Place the deep fryer in the
kitchen sink and very carefully pour the melted fat into the vat.
• Remember not to go over the maximum level indicated in the vat.
• If you are going to use fat that is in the deep fryer left over from a previous
frying session, make holes in the fat with the help of a fork. When doing so,
be careful not to harm the element.
• Close the deep fryer lid to avoid spatters and turn the temperature regulat-
ing control (3) to 150º so that the fat slowly softens. If you wish, you can
increase the temperature once the fat has melted.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Wait until the oil has completely cooled before proceeding to dismantle and
clean the fryer. Unplug the deep fryer.
• The fryer can be completely dismantled for cleaning as described in the
“Operation” section.
• The body, basket, lid and vat can be washed either with soapy water or in
the dishwasher.
• The control panel can be cleaned using a damp cloth.
• IMPORTANT: The fryer’s control panel must never get wet.
• Replace all the parts and remember that they must be completely dry before
you put them back into position. Assemble the fryer in the following or-
der:
- Control panel
- Basket
- Lid
PRACTICAL HINTS
• Food items must be completely dry before you place them in oil or fat.
• In order to prevent potatoes from sticking together, wash them before you
fry them.
• If the fryer is not going to be used continuously, it is best for the oil or
liquid fat to be kept in the refrigerator or in a cool place in tightly closed
containers. Beforehand, using a strainer, remove all the loose particles that
the fried food may have released into the oil.
• Change the oil when it looks dark, smells bad or the food tastes bad. Never
add fresh oil or fat to used oil or fat.
• Do not leave oil/fat at a high temperature for longer than necessary.
