id risk of fire or electric shock. Do not block the ventilation slots at the bottom and
rear of the housing. During operation, the operating elements (see: ›Knowing Your
Vita - Spin - Deep - Fryer‹) must be accessible all the time. The appliance could move
during spinning. Ensure to keep the appliance in an appropriate distance of at least
30 cm on each side to the edge of the working space and any other objects. During
operation leave at least 1 m of free space above the appliance.
Before assembling the appliance, always ensure that all parts are in proper working
order (see: ›General Safety Instructions‹). Do not use any damaged or unsuitable
parts to avoid risk of injuries and damage.
The filling level in the oil container must always be between MIN and MAX filling
level marks, indicated on the oil container (approx. 2.3 Litre): When filling in too
less oil, the appliance could overheat. With too much oil, the oil could overflow,
when inserting fresh, wet food. Additionally, too much oil could lead to failure of the
spinning process and damage of the centrifuge, because the basket will stay in oil
during spinning.
To avoid splashes, lock the basket in the upper position for adding food. Then close
the lid and
always lower the basket slowly into the oil to avoid overflowing
. If oil
has run out, immediately unplug the appliance and leave it cool down. Then clean
the appliance to avoid risk of fire and electric shock.
Keep the lid closed as far as possible, during operation to avoid damage due to
splashes and hot steam. Do not use violence for opening the lid or lifting up the bas-
ket. Lid and basket are locked securely for operation. Thus, always press the ope-
ning/release button to release these safety interlocks.
Exclusively use the appliance for processing food that is fit for consumption.
PREPARING THE APPLIANCE
1. Press the opening button at the right upper side of the housing; then open the lid.
2. Hold the basket at the handle, and with the basket release button at the top of
the handle pressed, lift the basket up and out.
3. Ensure that the appliance is assembled correctly, and oil container, lid, heating
rods, and basket are completely dry (see: ›Reassembling the Appliance‹).
