• Caution: during and after deep-frying it is possible that drops of condensation fall in the hot frying fat. The loud noise that
you can hear is the reaction of the liquid to hot frying fat, which is normal. It does not have an effect on the operation
of your fryer.
• Caution: when deep-frying fish, meat and dough products, we recommend lowering the empty frying basket in the reservoir
and only then place the products to be fried in the frying basket. This prevents the products from sticking to the frying basket.
• To prevent early contamination of the frying fat, the products should not be salted prior or during deep-frying.
• For a good result it is recommended to not fully fill the frying basket (maximum 500 grammes). For frozen fries it is
recommended to use smaller portions, as these contain more liquid and could otherwise cool down the frying fat too much.
It is also possible that the frying fat starts to foam violently and could overflow.
• When making fresh fries from potatoes, you must properly dry the fries after washing so that no liquid gets into the frying fat.
Fry the fresh fries two times. The first time (pre-frying) 5 to 10 minutes at 170 degrees. Allow the fries to leak and cool for a few
minutes. For the second time (final frying), set the thermostat knob to 190 degrees and finish frying the fries in 2 to 4 minutes.
Allow to leak properly after deep-frying.
Your fryer has been provided with a double safeguard, i.e. a reset button and a safety switch.
The fryer has been provided with an anti-overheating safeguard that ensures that the fryer switches off automatically when
it gets overheated. Remove the plug from the socket and allow the fryer to cool down fully. You can switch on the fryer again
by pressing the reset button located on the rear of the cord storage compartment. See the image at the product description.
Take a round blunt object and use it to press the reset button in the round opening at the rear of the element.
On the front of the element of the fryer there is a safety switch that ensures that the heating element is immediately switched
off when the element is removed from the fryer while the fryer is still on. Moreover, this safeguard ensures that the element
cannot be switched on if the heating element is not placed properly in the guides.
If your fryer does not work, we recommend checking the above-mentioned safeguards.
FILTERING OR REPLACING LIQUID FRYING FAT
Before you start filtering or replacing frying fat, you must allow the fryer to cool down fully and remove the plug from
the socket. Regular filtering of the frying fat considerably increases the life span of the fat. Replacing the frying fat
is recommended after deep-frying 8 to 12 times.
The frying fat should be filtered while cold. Pour the frying fat in a clean dish, clean the reservoir with hot water and
a little washing-up liquid or in the dishwasher. Properly dry the reservoir. When pouring the frying fat back in the reservoir,
let the frying fat run through a fine sieve. When replacing the frying fat, observe the same actions. Check each time that
the level of the frying fat is between minimum and maximum. Used liquid frying fat can be poured back in the bottles.
Never flush away frying fat in the sink.
CLEANING THE FRYER
Before cleaning the fryer, you must allow the fryer to cool down fully and remove the plug from the socket. Remove the cover,
frying basket, element and reservoir from the fryer. Clean the cover, frying basket and reservoir in the dishwasher or with
hot water and a little washing-up liquid. Make sure the parts are properly dried after cleaning. You can clean the exterior
of the fryer with a damp cloth to which a little bit of washing-up liquid has been added.
Do not use aggressive or abrasive agents for cleaning the appliance. Never submerge the element, cord or plug in water
or other liquids.
