Loading the basket
•
Remove excess water, ice or frost from food.
•
Do not pour the food directly from the frozen bag in the fryer.
•
Fill the basket before placing it in the deep fryer (see the cooking tables page 16) – fig. 8. Do not
overfill the basket. Reduce the quantities for frozen foods.
•
Cooking tips : Cut food into similar-sized pieces so that they cook evenly. Avoid using pieces
that are too thick. For crispier frozen fries, wash them in cold water and dry them carefully. Not
all frozen foods are ready to use, check the manufacturer's instructions.
Frying process
•
Place the Oil box switch button on the Fry position – fig. 9.
•
After the bowl has been filled with oil, plug in the fryer without the frying basket – fig. 10. Turn on the fryer. The
power indicator light will switch on. Turn the adjustable thermostat to the desired temperature (see cooking table:
page 16).
•
Put the lid on
•
The fryer will now start to heat the oil.
•
Do not touch hot surfaces when cooking – fig.15.
•
Note : the ready indicator light will switch on when the desired temperature is reached.
Lowering the basket
•
After the ready indicator light switches on, remove the lid, place and lower the basket slowly into the oil. Plunging
the basket too rapidly in the oil may cause it to overflow.
•
Watch cooking for 1 minute before putting the lid on.
•
To avoid any risk of burns, never put your hands above the filtration zone.
