Fire Hazard - SilverCrest SEF 2300 C3 Mode D'emploi

DANGER for children
Please make sure that the hot fryer can
never be pulled down (e.g. with the
power cable) by children. In cases of
scalding from hot oil there is danger to
life!
Packing materials are not children's
toys. Children should not be allowed to
play with the plastic bags: There is a
risk of suffocation!
DANGER to and from pets
and livestock
Electrical devices can represent a haz-
ard to pets and livestock. In addition,
animals can also cause damage to the
device. For this reason you should keep
animals away from electrical devices at
all times.

Fire hazard

The fryer must never be used empty! Be-
fore switching on the device, the oil con-
tainer must always be filled at least up
to the MIN marking and it must not ex-
ceed the MAX marking.
Old or dirty frying fats and oils, as well
as unsuitable fats and oils (such as mar-
garine, butter or olive oil) can ignite
when heated.
Always use suitable oils and fats. Make
sure to clean and store the device care-
fully and to replace the frying fat/oil in
time (see "The basics of frying" on
page 64).
Never mix different fats/oils or old and
new fat/oil.
If fat or oil catches fire, it must never be
extinguished with water, because this
would lead to a fat explosion. Quench
the fire with a damp blanket or a damp
towel.
Never leave the fryer unattended during
operation. Thus, you will detect possible
62 GB
problems early on due to unusual smells
or noises.
Do not use the fryer under wall units
and not near to any curtains, paper or
any similar inflammable objects.
The device must never be placed direct-
ly under a wall socket, as the arising
heat may lead to damage to the electric
system.
Keep a distance of at least 50 cm to
any other objects so that they cannot
catch fire.
The fryer should only be operated on a
stable, flat, non-slip, dry and non-inflam-
mable work surface, in order to prevent
it from tipping over or slipping away.
DANGER! Risk of injury
through burning!
Hot fat and oil results in serious
burns because it is significantly
hotter than boiling water.
If water drips into hot fat or oil,
then this will lead to explosive
deflagrations.
Avoid any contact with hot fat/
oil or splashes of fat or oil.
Under no circumstances move or trans-
port the fryer when containing hot fat/
oil.
Never let water drip into the hot fat/oil.
The frying basket and the food to be
fried must be dry when they are put into
the hot fat/oil. In particular, in case of
deep-frozen food any ice sticking there-
to or melt water should be removed.
The fryer should only be operated with
dry hands.
The frying basket, the handle, and the
lid should not be immersed in water or
any other liquids before use.
Make sure that all parts of the fryer are
absolutely dry before they are used.
Even small amounts of residual water
may lead in combination with the heat-
ed fat/oil to explosive deflagrations.
