Warning!
- Beware of inexpert handling!
- Old and dirty oil or frying fat can represent a real fi-
re hazard; make sure only new oil or frying fat are
used each time you start frying.
- The food you intend to fry should always be dry;
wet food causes the oil to foam and overflow.
- Frying excessively large quantities of food at a ti-
me also causes the oil to foam; never exceed 0,8 kg.
- If the level of oil in the bath falls below the low le-
vel mark stamped on it, the risk of fire will increase.
- Never leave the appliance on without any oil in it.
The lid delivered with the appliance should always
be kept within easy reach. In case of fire, it should
be used to douse the flames.
Preparation for use
Before frying for the first time, it is advisable to tho-
roughly clean the appliance and above all the tank
(see paragraph "Taking care of the appliance fre-
quency of maintenance", page 12).
Filling the tank
Check that the oil drainage outlet is closed. Fill the
tank up to the maximum level mark with frying oil or
liquid fat.
Turning on and off (Figs. 3 - 4)
Turn on gas supply.
Lighting the pilot burner
Press the knob (13 - Fig. 3) and turn the to the left as
far as position
; keep the knob pressed down
and at the same time press the ignition button (13 -
Fig. 3).
Keep the knob pressed down fully for another 15-20
seconds after the pilot burner has lit, to allow the
thermocouple to heat. If the pilot burner goes out,
repeat the operation. The pilot flame may be obser
ved through the hole provided for that purpose.
Lighting the main burner of the tank
To ligth the main burner, turn the knob to the posi-
tion required. The 7 positions correspond approxi-
mately to the following temperatures:

Extinguishing
To extinguish the main burner, turn the knob to the
rigth as far as the position
: just the pilot burner
remains lit; the pilot burner may also be etinguished
by continuing to turn the knob until the position "0".
EMPTYING THE TANK
Table-top version
First of all a suitable bowl for emptying the oil into
should be found. The bowl should be heat-resistent
and designed not to allow the oil to spill when the
bath is being emptied, since this could be very dan-
gerous.
It is advisable to filter frying oil and fat daily and to
change completely when necessary.
Insert the drainage tube as shown in the drawing,
place the container underneath. Open the drainage
outlet.
Important
Make sure the distance between the front edge of
the supporting surface and that of the appliance
is respected.
