which could result in overheating of the oil (fat). In case of high temperatures oil (fat)
might ignite.
•You may not use moisten frying goods. Always remove the extra ice from deep
frozen goods first. Even the smallest water drops may cause oil splashes or lead to
explosions during frying.
NOTE!
Overly wet foodstuffs or too large a quantity of food causes excessive foaming of
oil during frying.
•Do not leave any frying goods in the basket hanging over the container with the hot oil.
•The fryer may not be moved or repositioned as long as the oil is hot. The oil must
cool down first.
WARNING! Risk of injury!
Hot oil splashes and fat explosions respectively may cause burns at hands and face!
WARNING! Hazard via electrical current!

Frying food
CAUTION!
The fryer can be only operated by personnel who are familiar with the operation of
the device and specific risks that occur during frying.
•Carefully place the control box on the back edge of the oil tank. The pin at the
bottom of the control box must fit in the hole in the oil tank. Then the control box is
properly positioned. For safety reasons, the device works only when the control box
is properly placed on the housing. A micro switch then allows the device to operate.
•Make sure that the device is turned off (the temperature control is set to "0").
•Before filling the tank with oil for deep frying, no water may be in the tank. The oil
tank must be clean and dry
•The mechanism for draining
cooking oil must be closed and
locked (the lever positioned to
the right)
•Carefully pour oil into the tank to the appropriate level (between the "MIN" and
"MAX" markers in the tank). The marker is located on the side of the tank.

CAUTION!
Do not turn on the device when there is no oil in the tank. Always make sure the oil
level reaches the area between the "MIN" and "MAX" markers.
WARNING
Risk of fire! If the oil level is below the MIN marker, there is an increased risk of
the ignition of oil.
Risk of burns! If the oil level is above the MAX marker, hot oil may spill out.
CAUTION!
Use only liquid oil in the fryer. Solid fat (packaged) must first be dissolved!
Do not use old frying oil, because the lowered flash point increases the risk of
spontaneous combustion. In addition, old oil is more prone to foaming. There is also
increased smoke and odor.
•Turn on the device using the ON-/OFF switch.
The orange power indicator light comes on.
•Set the thermostat to the desired temperature (50° C - 190°C) by turning it clockwise.
•During heating the green heat indicator light comes on. After reaching the set
temperature the light turns off. When the temperature in the oil tank falls, the green
light comes on again and the device starts heat again.
WARNING Risk of burns!
During operation the fryer and the cooking oil in the tank is very hot and there is a
danger of the ignition of cooking oil.
The device should not be turned on for too long!
Immediately after finishing frying, set the temperature controller to "0".
•In order to achieve the best results, wait until the desired temperature is reached and
then place food in the deep fry tank.
CAUTION!
When frying, do not exceed the following amounts of food:
Model - 10-liter single fryer /
2 x 10 liter double fryer 1.250 kg per oil tank
www.food-service.com.ua

- 36 -
•The deep frying basket is used for frying smaller food items. It is equipped with a
fixed handle and bracket.
•To fry food, slowly immerse the basket in the cooking oil. After frying, carefully remove
the basket from the tank and using the bracket, hang it on the element located on the
control box to drain.
WARNING Risk of injury!
The fryer can not be operated with the cover! The cover serves as a shield against
dust and to maintain oil temperature.
Before closing the cover, make sure it is dry so that water does not get into the oil
tank, which could cause the dangerous splashing of oil.
Changing the cooking oil
•Regularly change the cooking oil. Allow old cooking oil to cool.
•Before draining the oil, mount the oil drainage pipe to the drain nozzle using the
bayonet connector.
•Open the drain mechanism by pulling the blockade up and moving the lever to the left.
•Drain the cooking oil into a suitable container. Make sure that the container is placed
securely. The oil must be disposed of in accordance with environmental protection
guidelines.

Overheating safety mechanism
•If the fryer is turned on accidentally without cooking oil in the tank or if there is not
enough oil in the tank, then in order to protect it from overheating, the fryer will
automatically turn off when the temperature reaches approximately 230°C. In this
case, turn off the machine and wait for it to cool.
•After the device has been automatically switched off by
the overheating mechanism, it can be turned on again,
provided that the RESET button in the connection box is
pressed.
•In order to do this, the device must cool to a temperature
below 170°C. Then in a counter-clockwise direction
unscrew the cap to the RESET button, push the pin and
screw the cap back on.
•Once this is done, you can normally turn on the device.
