ENGLISH
• Use the Frying Guide as a guide to
determine food quantities, temperature
settings and cooking times.
• The cooking progress can be checked by
looking through the viewing window (11).
Note: Hot steam may escape from the filter
vents and lid during cooking.
• When cooking is completed, rotate the
temperature dial (3) to the off position, the
on/off indicator lamp (4) will go out.
Disconnect the appliance from the electrical
supply.
• Raise the basket handle (10) until it locks in
the horizontal position. Press the lid release
button (2) to open the Fryer & remove the
basket, shaking it so any excess oil falls back
into the cooking bowl.
Note: The basket can be positioned onto the
side of the cooking bowl to drain excess oil from
the food.

Practical advice
Oils and fats
• Always use oil that can withstand high
temperature.
• Do not mix different types of oil or fat.
• Change the oil or fat when it becomes brown
after cooking.
Preparing the food
• Whatever the recipe used, the food must be
perfectly dry: this will avoid overflowing and
make the oil or fat last longer.
• 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. This will stop them sticking
together.
Cooking
• Do not overfill the basket. This will cause the
oil temperature dropping and make the food
greasy.
• Do not keep the oil at high temperature for
long periods. This will deteriorate the oil.
• Set the temperature controller to the lowest
temperature while waiting between two
batches.
• Do not leave the cooked food in the basket in
the draining position too long. The vapors
could cause the food to lose its crispness and
go soft.
• Frozen food can be cooked in the basket
without being defrosted.
After cooking
• Change the fat or oil regularly, after
approximately 10 batches.
