Recommendations For Use - Fagor F-602 Manuel D'utilisation

• WARNING: WHEN THE APPLIANCE
IS SWITCHED ON IT REACHES VERY
HIGH TEMPERATURES. TAKE ALL
NECESSARY MEASURES TO AVOID
THE RISK OF BURNS, FIRES AND
OTHER DAMAGE TO PEOPLE OR
PROPERTY.
• DO NOT MOVE THE APPLIANCE
DURING USE OR WHILE THE OIL IS
COOLING.
• Do not forget that the oil may
deteriorate and even catch fire if heated
for too long at a high temperature. If
the oil were to catch fire, unplug the
appliance immediately and place the lid
on the pan. This will cut off the oxygen
supply, thereby smothering the fire. For
your own safety, never use water to put
out the fire.
• Unplug the appliance while not in use
or before carrying out any maintenance
or cleaning operation.
• To switch the appliance off, first turn
the switch to its '0' position and then
unplug the cable from the mains.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended
while in use. Switch the appliance off
whenever you leave the room, even if it
is only for a brief moment.
• Let the oil cool before cleaning and
storing the appliance.
• Do not use the appliance if the power
cable or plug are damaged, or in
the event of breakdown or improper
functioning. Regularly check the power
cable for damage.
• The user should never try to replace the
appliance's cable. If the cable were to
become damaged or need replacing,
take the appliance to a Technical
Assistance Service authorised by the
manufacturer for examination, repair or
adjustment.
• Do not let the cable hang over the edge
of the table or worktop, or come into
contact with hot surfaces.
• Never pull on the cable to unplug the
appliance.
• Do not leave the appliance on or near a
gas burner or electric hotplate, or inside
or near a hot oven or a microwave
oven.
• While in use, keep the appliance out of
the reach of children and the disabled.
• Never use the appliance outside or
expose it to the elements (rain, sun,
frost, etc.).
• When you decide to dispose of the
appliance definitively, unplug it and
render it unserviceable by cutting the
power cable, for example.

4. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE

• We recommend that you use
vegetable oil suitable for frying at high
temperatures. You can also use liquid
or solid fat. If you use solid fat, take the
necessary precautions to prevent the
element from overheating (see 'Using
with solid fat').
• Do not use the fryer with too little oil/fat
or with no oil/fat. The oil/fat level should
be between the minimum and maximum
marks indicated on the pan (5). Before
switching the fryer on, make sure the oil
level is correct.
5. SAFETY
This deep-fat fryer is provided with a
thermal safety device which will disconnect
the appliance in the case of overheating.
This disconnection is usually produced
when there is little or no oil or fat in the
recipient; overheating can also occur when
the solid fat melts.
If the thermal device cuts off the electrical
supply, do the following:
• Unplug the deep-fat fryer and wait until
the oil and fat cools.
• After removing the Control panel +
resistance (10) from its housing, push
the thermal switch (12) found on the
lower part of the resistance unit with a
small screwdriver, the deep fat fryer will
start to function again.
• The Basket handling operation and its
locking, or unlocking position, must
always be carried out with the deep-
fat fryer Lid closed so as to avoid
burns.
