FRYER USE

This appliance must only be used for its expressly
designed purpose; i. e. for frying foods in oil or solid
fat. Any other use is to be considered improper.
Particularly voluminous and non-drained foods can
cause splattering of hot oil.
Restore the oil bath whenever it falls below the min.
level, marked by the special reference notch.
Before introducing oil in the tank, make sure it does
not contain water.
Fill the well until the water is level with the maximum
level indicated on the wall of the well. Do not use the
appliance with the water level above the maximum
indicated level.
When using solid fat, melt it separately then pour it in
the tank. Do not leave fat in the tank at the end of
cooking.
Place the basket with food to be cooked, slowly in the
boiling oil, making sure that the froth formed does
not spill over the edge of the tank. If this occurs, stop
dipping the basket for a few seconds.
Do not activate the heating system when there is no
oil or fat in the well.
While the fryer is on, the oil level must be maintained
in correspondence with or above the minimun level
mark indicated on the rear wall of the well.
Restore the oil bath whenever it falls below the min.
level, marked by the special reference notch. (danger
of fire).
For better performance of the appliance, regularly
change the oil used. Overusing an oil reduces its
flashpoint and increases its tendency to boil
suddenly.
The appliance is equipped with a manual reset safety
thermostat that interrupts heating when the
operating temperature exceeds the maximum
permitted value.
Do not exceed the maximum limit of food load
indicated on the technical data plate.
