Deep frying tips
• Only use liquid frying oil or fat (preferably).
• The recommended temperature for frying chips
and snacks is 175°C max.
• Heat the oil slowly. Preferably in 3 steps for ex-
ample first at 100°C, then from 100-140°C and
later from 140°C to 175°C with 15 minute breaks
between steps.
• Remove ice and crumbs from frozen foods.
• Do not deep-fry too much at one time. This can
cause the oil or fat to cool down too much. Cooled
down oil/fat does not properly sear the surface of
the food, so that more fat will be absorbed. The
ideal proportion of frozen products to frying oil/
fat is 1:10 maximum.
• When used intensively, crumbs and other debris
should be filtered out of the oil/fat.
• Replace oil or fat in time. Use test strips or test
equipment regularly to track when oil/fat should
be replaced.
• If oil or fat starts to foam, smoke or gets too vis-
cous you should replace it. Also replace the oil/fat
when it has a strong smell or taste.
After use
• Turn off the appliance by switching off the switch
and removing the plug from the socket.
• Remove the basket from the fat. This avoids the
basket becoming stuck in the solidified fat.
• Put the lid on the deep fryer, so that the fat does
not age.
Cleaning and maintenance
• Always remove the plug from the socket before
cleaning the appliance.
• Beware: Never immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid!
• Clean the outside of the appliance with a damp
cloth (water with mild detergent).
• Never use aggressive cleaning agents or abra-
sives. Do not use any sharp or pointed objects.
Do not use petrol or solvents! Clean with a damp
cloth and detergent if necessary. Do not use
abrasive materials.
• Do not clean the appliance with steam cleaner
or water jet.
• Assemble the appliance after cleaning and make
sure that the heating & control panel is mounted
properly, otherwise the appliance will not func-
tion.
