Hotplates General Information Notes - ETW51
The controls set the hotplates at six pre-set power levels. Each
control can be used to select one of six temperature settings from a
minimum at position 1 to a maximum at position 6, the redspot hotplates
heat up more rapidly to give faster boiling.
1. Use a deep pan, large enough to completely cover the
appropriate heating area.
2. Never fill the pan more than one-third full of oil.
3. Never leave oil or fat unattended during the heating or cooking
period e.g. whilst answering the telephone.
4. Never try to fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food.
This only lowers the temperature of the oil or fat too much,
resulting in greasy food.
5. Always dry food thoroughly before frying, and lower it slowly
into the hot oil or fat. Frozen foods, in particular, will cause
frothing and spitting, if added to quickly.
6. Never heat fat, or fry, with a lid on the pan.
7. Keep the outside of the pan clean and free from streaks of oil or
fat.
