USING YOUR APPLIANCE
Filling the fryer with oil or fat
It is recommended that you always use high quality oils and fats that are
recommended for this type of frying, as this will allow the full avour of the
food to be tasted.
The other benet of good quality oil is that the food being cooked is better
and the oil will last longer.
1. Open the top lid.
2. Lift the basket using the handle.
3. Place approximately 0.75 litres of oil or 0.6 kg of hard fat into the fryer
body (the level must always be between the two marks on the oil
reservoir wall).
4. If you use blocks of fat, cut them into pieces before placing them in the
oil reservoir.
5. Set switch of the temperature controller to 140oC and the red Indicator
light will come on.
6. To melt, the fat needs roughly 8 minutes in the oil reservoir.
7. Never attempt to melt fat in the basket.
Preparing the food
1. Whatever the recipe used, the food must be perfectly dry as this will
prevent the oil frothing and overowing, this prolongs the life of the oil or
fat and will not taint the food with unpleasant oily tastes.
2. When preparing potato-based food (chips, crisps, etc.), cut them up
and then wash them in cold water to remove the starch. Dry them
carefully to avoid them sticking together.

Cooking
1. Plug in the deep fat fryer and switch on at the wall socket.
The display on the deep fat fryer will light up and show
“POWER” in red lettering.
2. Set the temperature controller to the desired temperature for the
produce you are deep fat frying. The indicator “HEAT” lights up.
3. When the indicator on the display panel for “HEAT” goes out,
the thermostat has cut the power to the heating element. This
will take approximately between 5-7 minutes and indicates that
the fryer has reached the required temperature and you are
ready to start cooking.
4. Open the lid and attach the handle to the frying basket and
place the prepared food in the basket.
5. Lower the basket into the oil very slowly. This will stop the fryer
oil losing too much heat. Always remember to watch the oil level
when deep fat frying slightly damp food as the water in the food
may cause the oil to froth or foam. This may cause the oil to
overow over the top of the oil reservoir. It is important that you
never exceed the maximum ll line of the reservoir.
6. When the food is cooked, turn the temperature controller anti-
clockwise to the o position. The indicator heat light will go out.
Unplug the fryer or shut o the power socket. The indicator
“POWER LIGHT” goes out. Open the lid, raise the basket and
drain the oil.
7. When cooking, the temperature controller will heat or stop
heating according to the set temperature; the “HEAT” indicator
light will icker.
8. Do not overll the basket, as this will cause the oil temperature
to drop, which will make the food greasy.
9. Do not keep the oil at high temperature for long periods as this
will make it lose its properties and may taint the oil.
10.Set the temperature controller to the lowest temperature while
waiting between two batches.

11.Do not leave the cooked food in the basket in the draining
position too long. The vapours could cause the food to lose its
crispness and go soft.
12.Frozen food can be cooked in the basket without being
defrosted but as with all frozen foods read the produces cooking
instructions and ensure that the food is thoroughly cooked and
served piping hot.
After cooking
1. Ensure that you switch o at the deep fat fryer control panel
after use and switch o at the wall socket and then remove the
plug from the socket.
2. Always allow the Deep Fat Fryer to cool completely before
moving or storing.
3. Oil or fat can be left in the fryer with its basket in. To ensure the oil
will not lose any of its cooking properties, store with the lid on.
Cleaning and care
1. Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is disconnected from the power
supply and has cooled down completely.
2. Clean the outside of the fryer and the lid with a damp cloth.
3. Never use abrasive pads or alcohol.
4. Detach the handle from the basket.
5. Wash the basket with hot water or washing-up liquid. Rinse and dry
