Installation requirements
The Unit have to be build-in in a flat horizontal area. The place must be allowing a weight at
least 100 kg. To disconnect the Power, the user needs easy access to the power-connection.
Don`t install the deep fryer in the area of water.
Installation intructions
The following points must always be observed during installation:
Install under the unit a removable base plate to install the supplied safety thermostats
accessible. The base plate also supports the easy access for the technical service. If this not
possible then different build-in unit`s has to be proofed. Here, we are ready to provide
assistance.
The switch face plate is not included, but is an available option.
To ensure proper operation, the instructions must be strictly observed.
The mounting frame of the unit must be sealed down (Silicone Pactan 6076) in order to
prevent the ingress of liquids. The penetration of liquids will cause damages.
-Proof and take sure: the voltage of the main supply cable and the voltage
of the nameplate of the unit fit together.
The device must be connected to a PE wire to the terminal screw and the
on-site equipotential point of the cooking suite.
The PE-wire have to connected to the electrical main supply.
-The installation must be tested for practicality.
-Don`t install, set up or install near sources of water.
-Don`t install the unit on the same level with the surface.
-Don`t install the unit in near or on hot surfaces.
-All electric installations must fulfil the local building code regulations. All regulations issued
by the national electricity authorities must be observed.
-The unit comes with main cable(s) and can be connected to a power point with the
necessary plug or directly with the main cable.
-When using fault-current circuit breakers, they must be designed for a minimum fault
current of 30 mA.
-The personnel operating the equipment must make sure that all installation, maintenance,
and inspection work is done by specially trained and certified personnel only.
-The unit comes with an installations box. Install this box accessible in case of a service.
-Please provide a disconnecting from the main supply.
-For service and spare part exchange the unit have to be disconnected from the main
supply. Take sure the unit can`t be turned or switched on in any case.
Observe the points with sensor touch control panel
-Display cables have to be separate from the other cables.
For the electric Connection for the Unit take attention.
The Law Regulations of the Country have to be adhered!
Attention
Wrong voltage can damage
the unit
Attention
The electrical connection must be only by
specially trained staff.
Install the safety thermostat on a
place for easy access for example
in the base.

Start up
Assembly
The unit is equipped with a main cable(s) which must be connected with a wall socket or
connection box. Electric installations must be carried out by registered installation companies
only, observing the specific national and local regulations. These companies are responsible
for correctly interpreting all regulations and performing the installation in compliance with the
safety instructions.
Indications on warning signs and nameplates must be strictly observed.
Make sure that the main voltage corresponds to the voltage indicated for the unit
(given on the nameplate).
When installing or installation of this
device in close proximity to a wall,
partition walls, kitchen furniture,
decorative panels etc. is recommended
that these are not made of flammable
material; otherwise, they must be
covered with suitable non-combustible,
heat insulating material and the fire
safety regulations must be observed
most carefully!
Turn the controller and main switch in off position before you connect the unit to the main
supply.
To start the function test, the user has to know how to handle the unit.
Control with knob
The value, which point to the marking, shows the choosed temperature.
Position OFF: Position ON:
`0` point to marking (ο) each position, which point to marking (ο)
| 100 | (Min.) till | 185°C | (Max.)
Remove all parts from the heating zone. Stop immediately the start-up if the unit
have a defect. Switch OFF the unit and disconnect the unit from the main supply.
If the unit still doesn’t work, please refer to the “troubleshooting” section of this
manual.
Attention
The heating elements get very hot. To
avoid injuries, don`t touch the heating
element.

Temperature control with sensor touch control panel
Field confirm a change with an LED.
Melting step
This step can only be activated, if the temperature of the grease or oil is
< 100°C (SCH ) see display, in time of the heating up to 70°C flashes the lower bar. As
soon the melt step is reaching (70°C), change the display to (SCH ). Raise the temperature
> 70°C the display change (SCH ). The upper bar flashes until the temperature decreases.
Standby function
If the temperature of the grease or oil is > 110°C, the Standby function is activated and can
be used. By activated standby function the unit keep the temperature value 110°C.
Target temperature 110°C (Point), real temperature to low ,
Heating: point on the right side of the symbol.
Real temperature 90°C (all 10 sec.), real temperature to low ,
Heating: point on the right side of the symbol.
Target temperature 110°C (Point), real temperature in range +/- 2°C,
No heating.
Real temperature 115°C, real temperature to high ,
No heating.
Cooking process
Fill the basin with enough grease. Use liquid or semi-liquid fat! On the rear in the
basin is a min and max marker for the level control of the grease. Don`t exceed or below this
level when you fill the oil in the basin. During frying fat level should not fall below the
minimum marker. A low level can lead to inflammation of the fat or oil. Choose your
temperature on the controller. The unit is ready for the using after the choosed temperature
is reached.
Main switch
Push 1 sec (Unit ON/OFF)
Field to activate the melting step or the
Standby function (On/Of push 0,5 sec.)
Digital display shows the

Advantages of the electronic control (BFEExx):
After the choosed temperature is reached, for example 180°C, the deep
fryer use only the needed power to keep the temperature.
