Frying Sensor
This function can be used to fry food while maintaining
the suitable frying pan temperature.
Advantages when frying
The element only heats up if this is required to
▯
maintain the temperature. This saves energy and
prevents the oil or fat from overheating.
The AutoChef
®
function reports when the empty frying
▯
pan has reached the optimum temperature for adding
oil and then for adding the food.
Notes
Do not place a lid on the pan. Otherwise, the function
▯
does not activate correctly. You can use a splash
guard to prevent splashes of grease.
Use oil or grease that is suitable for deep fat frying. If
▯
butter, margarine, extra virgin olive oil, or lard is used,
use heat setting 1 or 2.
Never leave a frying pan, with or without food,
▯
unattended when it is being heated.
If the temperature of the cooking zone is higher than
▯
that of the cookware or vice-versa, the frying sensor is
not activated correctly.
Frying Pans for the Frying Sensor
Frying pans specifically suited for use with the frying
sensor are available. This optional accessory can be
purchased separately from specialist retailers or through
our technical Customer Service. Quote the relevant
reference number:
GP900004 28 cm frying pan.
These frying pans have a non-stick coating so that you
only need a small amount of oil to fry food.
Notes
The sensor technology has been configured
▯
specifically for this type of frying pan.
Other frying pans may overheat. The temperature can
▯
be adjusted higher or lower. For other pans, use the
lowest temperature setting and change it as required.
Ensure that the diameter of the base of the frying pan
▯
corresponds to the size of the burner. Place the frying
pan in the center of the burner.
