for the hot steam that may be released from the ventilation holes.
If the temperature drops, or drops when you add food, the "Ready" indicator will
switch off temporarily until the desired temperature has been reached again.
If frying of the food has been completed, open the lid and use the handle to hang the
basket on the edge of the oil reservoir. Let excess oil drain.
Then lift the basket up and carefully shake off any possible remains of oil.
When you have finished frying everything, switch the appliance off by turning the
temperature dial to "0". Pull the plug from the electric socket.
Your fryer has automatic overheating protection. This ensures that the oil in the
reservoir cannot get too hot. If the fryer fails to heat up the cause may be that the
safety switch has been engaged. This can occur when you have used too little or too
much oil. To turn off this protection, press the reset button (1) on the back of the
control panel.
ADVICE
As oil quickly loses its optimal quality, it is best to change the oil regularly.
Groundnut oil after using the fryer 8 to 10 times
Vegetable oil after using the fryer 10 to 12 times
Olive oil after using the fryer 8 to 10 times
Certainly replace the oil if it begins to smell, turns a dark colour, tastes strange,
becomes thick or begins to foam. Refresh the oil in one go, do not mix old oil with
new oil.
Some preparations such as breadcrumb coated products or strongly spiced/herbed
products and meat preparations may cause the oil to decrease in quality faster than
expected. Take this into account.
A regular change of oil will make cleaning of the oil reservoir and basket easier.
Prolonged heating reduces the quality of the oil. Always switch your fryer off
immediately after use.
Potato fries/chips
Always use, preferably, thick, not the newest potatoes. Cut them into chip-shaped
slices. Rinse the cut product under running water and dry thoroughly.
Fry your potato fries/chips in two goes (twice):
First frying round: 150-160°C: 5 to 10 minutes (depending on the amount used)
Second frying round: 175 – 185°C: 2 to 4 minutes.
Allow to drain properly before serving.
Frozen products
Follow the frying times stated on the food packaging. Frozen products greatly reduce
the temperature of the oil. For this reason, do not attempt to fry large portions.
Shake the food product above the sink unit to remove any ice. Adjust the temperature
selection dial to 190°C and wait until the "Ready" indicator lights up. Lower the
basket slowly into the frying oil to avoid excessive bubbling of the oil.
