Cooking

beforehand, then slowly pour it into the deep fryer bowl. Never put solid fat directly into the deep
fryer bowl or fryer basket as this will lead to deterioration of the appliance.

change it regularly.
• Eat a balanced and varied diet which includes plenty of fruits and vegetables.
• Store your fresh potatoes in a room above 8°C.
• For crisp results and fast cooking, we recommend that you limit the quantity of chips to 1/2

the basket. While cooking, the temperature never reaches above 175°C even if the thermostat is
set at the 190°C (Stabilized Temperature before lowering).

Preparing the fryer
• Fill the bowl with oil.
The oil level should always be between the Min. and Max.
level of the bowl.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line as boiling oil may
overflow during frying and can cause severe burnings.
• For best results we recommend blended vegetable oil.
• For sunflower oil, groundnut oil, or soya oil, ensure the oil
is changed after every 5 uses.
Follow the manufacturer's cooking recommendations.
• If you use solid vegetable fat: cut it into small pieces, melt
it in a separate pan then pour the melted fat into the fryer
bowl.
Be sure that the
oil level is
between the Min.
and Max. level of
the bowl
otherwise the
safety cut-out will
activate
(see page 5).
!
Never use
different types of
oil at the same
time as this may
cause the oil to
overflow.
!
Never melt the fat
on the heating
element or in the
frying basket.
If you melt the fat
on the heating
element or in the
frying basket, the
safety cut-out
would be
activated
(see page 5).
