Before using for the first time
• The fryer can be completely dismantled.
• Remove the lid and clean it with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly.
• Lift the basket handle horizontally until you hear a “click” as it locks.
• Remove the basket, the control unit and the bowl -
fig.1 and fig.2
.
• Clean the frying basket and the bowl with a sponge and soapy water or put
them in the dishwasher -
fig.3
.
• Clean the control unit and the heating element with a damp cloth.
• Dry all components thoroughly.
• Place the bowl and the heating element in position -
fig.4 and fig.5
.
Filling the bowl
• Fill the bowl with oil.
• The oil level should always be between the MIN and MAX level of the bowl. Do
not exceed the maximum fill line as boiling oil may overflow during frying and
can cause severe burns -
fig.6
.
• For best results we recommend vegetable oil.
• If you use solid vegetable shortening, cut it into small pieces and melt it in a
separate pan. Pour the melted shortening into the fryer bowl.
• Never melt the shortening on the heating element or in the frying basket.
Do not immerse the
control unit with the
heating element in water.
Never wash the lid in the
dishwasher.
Make sure that the control
unit is correctly positioned
otherwise the fryer cannot
function.
Never use different types
of oil at the same time as
this may cause the oil to
overflow.
The oil level must always
be kept between the
min/max markers. Check
the level each time before
frying, and add some of
the same type of oil if
necessary.
