6.6.1 Practical advice for succesful frying
The oil level in the well must always be between 3 litres (minimum level
marked inside the well) and 3.5 litres (maximum level marked inside the
well). The heating element must always be submerged in oil or fat before it
can operate.
Never place solid animal or vegetable fat in the well. It must be melted
before it is placed in the frying well.
