7 Gently lower the basket into the fryer and place it in frying position (fig.
b). When the food is placed inside the fryer the pilot light will switch on,
since the food causes the oil to cool due to the temperature difference,
and it will switch off again when the oil reaches the temperature indicated
on the temperature regulating control.
Z
The food should always be covered by the oil.
8 Close the lid (1) on the fryer to prevent fumes and smells.
9 After frying the food, open the deep fryer lid, lift out the basket and shake
it gently. Next, hook it into the draining position (fig. C) for the food to
drain off as much oil as possible.
10 Once the food is drained, take the basket out of the deep fryer and empty
it.
11 Put the temperature control (3) in the 0 position. Then unplug the
appliance from the mains.
12 Once the oil has cooled, place the basket inside the deep fryer and put
the handle in the position shown in fig. D. If you were using solid fat,
leave it to solidify in the vat and store the deep fryer with the fat in it.
4 USE WITH SOLID FAT
Z
If you use solid fat for frying (when not previously used), you must take
the following precautions:
1 Melt the pieces of new solid frying fat in a pan at a low heat. Watch over
the pan at all times and keep it out of the reach of children.
2 Turn off the heat as soon as the fat has melted. Place the deep fryer in
the kitchen sink and very carefully pour the melted fat into the vat.
i
Remember not to go over the maximum level indicated in the vat.
3 If you are going to use fat that is in the deep fryer left over from a
previous frying session, make holes in the fat with the help of a fork.
4 Close the deep fryer lid to avoid spatters and turn the temperature
regulating control (3) to 150o so that the fat slowly softens. If you wish,
you can increase the temperature once the fat has melted.
