Hints and tips
• Always ensure that you use a good quality
lard, solid oil or oil for deep frying. Corn,
groundnut, vegetable or rapeseed oil are
ideal. Do not use margarine or olive oil.
• Take into account the food to be cooked
before you select your frying temperature.
As a general guide precooked foods need a
higher cooking temperature than raw foods.
• Select your cooking utensils with care. Do
not use utensils which may melt. Metal
utensils become hot and should, therefore
have insulated handles. When using metal
utensils TAKE CARE NOT TO DAMAGE THE
SPECIAL NON-STICK COATING IN THE
TANK.
• Do not use your fryer under wall mounted
cupboards which could prevent you
opening the lid fully, or allow steam to be
deflected into your face.
• Cook your food thoroughly. Remember that
your food may begin to turn golden brown
before it is cooked through.
• Your fryer will always be ready for use if
you store cooled and filtered oil inside, with
the lid closed.
• All foodstuffs, particularly frozen food and
potatoes, contain moisture. When lowered
into the hot oil or fat the water in the food
turns into steam. Most of the steam which
is trapped escapes when you open the lid
of your fryer- SO CARE IS NEEDED.
• Do not lean over the fryer when pressing
the lid release button as the lid mechanism
causes the lid to spring open.
• Old potatoes are ideal for making chips.
Your chips should be evenly sized (10mm
square) so that they cook evenly and
should be rinsed and dried before they are
fried.

CLEANING SHOULD ONLY BE CARRIED
OUT WHEN THE FRYER IS SWITCHED OFF
AND THE PLUG IS REMOVED FROM THE
SOCKET. YOUR FRYER SHOULD HAVE
COMPLETELY COOLED.
ALWAYS REMOVE THE CHARCOAL FILTER
BEFORE CLEANING THE LID.
Replaceable charcoal filter
Your fryer is fitted with a white anti-grease
filter which collects grease from passing
steam and a black charcoal filter to reduce
odours. The filters can be used approximately
12 times before replacement, depending upon
quantity of food fried each time.
Replace the filters as follows,
1 Remove the plug from the mains socket.
2 Unclip and lift out the filter panel from the
top of the fryer and remove both the black
and white filters and dispose of them.
3 Insert the new filters, white down, black
up, into the filter recess.
4 Replace the filter panel into the lid, then onto
the top of the fryer.
Contact the customer helpline using
the helpline number on the front of this
booklet for replacement filters.
