INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

- Before use, clean the basket (D), lid (F) and container (I) using a cloth with hot water and a mild

detergent. Wipe the heating element on the power unit (B) clean with a damp cloth. Dry thor-

oughly, making sure that no parts have any water residues.

- Insert the tank (I) into the appliance body (H), positioning the part with the references “MIN” (2

litres) and “MAX” (2.5 litres) so that it is at the back (Fig. 2).

- Position the power unit (B) in its housing inside the appliance body (H) so that the tabs slide into

the relevant slots; press the unit down gently until it is locked into place (M) (Fig. 3).

- Fill the tank (I) with cooking oil, making sure that the oil level is between the “MIN” and “MAX”

references.

NOTE: Only use olive, corn or peanut oil, or a good quality lard. Never mix different types of oil or

lard together or use butter or margarine, as this could cause smoke and also overspill from the appli-

ance. If using lard, melt it beforehand over a low flame and in a different container and then pour it

into the tank (I) in the fryer. Never melt fat directly inside the tank (I).

- Fit the handle (C) to the basket (D), inserting the two handle pins into the housing on the basket

(Fig. 4).

- Immerse the basket (D) into the oil, resting the handle (C) on the appliance body (H) and then cover

with the lid (F) (Fig. 5), using the relevant handgrip (G) and resting the slots over the handle (Fig. 6).

- Plug the appliance into the mains power. The On/Off light (M) will switch on.

- Set the required temperature according to the food being fried, using the special selector dial (A).

The temperature light (L) will switch on.

- When the oil reaches the correct temperature and it is ready for frying, the temperature light (L)

will switch off. The light may switch on and off during use to indicate that the fryer is maintaining

the correct temperature.

- Remove the lid (F) using the special handgrip (G) and take out the basket (D), resting it on the

edge of the appliance body (H) with the relevant hook (Fig. 7).

- Place the food for frying inside the basket (D) without overloading it and referring to the table

below. Lower the basket and close the lid (F) as described previously.

- Look at the cooking time, which varies according to the food, in the table on the appliance body.
