ENGLISH

•

Put filter paper or a thin cotton cloth into a metal sieve or a strainer and filter
the oil.

–  Do not mix up different types of oil.
–  At long intervals between cooking of product portions, switch the deep fryer off.
–  It is better to fry products with high content of water (for instance, potatoes) in

small intervals; take the basket out and shake the content of the basket peri-
odically.

– After frying of a food portion, remove the remaining products from the oil imme-

diately, this way you can prolong the oil life.

– Regularly change oil (approximately after 8-12 uses).
– Oil should be changed if it starts bubbling while heating, if it has unpleasant taste

or odor, as well as if it darkened or became dense.

– If you use the «Deep fryer» program seldom, store oil or fat in closed plastic or

glass containers in a cool place (preferably in a fridge).

– Do not store the oil in the bowl (20).
Cooking recommendations
– When frying several types of products, put products requiring lower processing

temperature first.

– As a rule, heat treated products require higher frying temperature and less cook-

ing time than raw products.

“BREAR-MAKER” mode
Programs
1.  Bread (basic mode)
It includes all the three stages of bread making: dough kneading, dough rising and
baking.
2.  Rye
Bake healthful bread of rye flour.
3.  Baguette (French bread)
Bread making takes more time, the bread has large porous crumb and crispy crust.
4.  Pie
This  program  allows  using  the  unit  as  an  ordinary  electric  oven.  Use  it  for  baking
from ready-made dough or for baked bread additional browning.
5.  Dough 1 (dough kneading)
Use this program to knead dough for home-baked pastry (pies, pizza, etc.).
6.  Gluten free
Gluten or fibrin is the albumen found in the seeds of Gramineae plants (wheat, rye
and oats are especially rich in it) and determining such characteristics of dough as
elasticity and springiness. With the help of digestive enzyme most people including
children successfully break up gluten that serves as a good source of albumen. But
there is a group of people with genetic predisposition for gluten provoking coeliacia,
quite a rare disease.  When suffering from this disease it is necessary to eliminate
gluten-containing foods from the diet. You can bake gluten-free dietarybread in our
bread maker (usually of rice, corn, buckwheat flour or special baking mixes).
7.  Wholegrain
Bake healthful bread of fine or crude flour. It is not recommended to use the delay
function when making this bread as that may cause undesirable effects.
