Cooking tables

The cooking times and temperatures are only a guide, they may require adjustment depending on the quantity and size of food, and personal taste.

For crispier results and to prevent oil overflowing, it is important home made chips are cooked in two fryings: a first frying at 160 °C, then a second frying at 190 °C. After the first frying, set the adjustable thermostat to 190°C and wait for the tem- perature indicator light to go out before lowering the chips into the oil for the

second frying.

Cleaning and Maintenance

Filtering the oil

•At the end of the last frying, turn the Oil Box control switch on the Automatic oil filtration position. (fig.27-28)

•For your safety, the appliance automatically drains all kinds of fat (oil or solid fat) when it is cool enough (approximatively 3 hours after the last frying).

!Make sure that the oil container is empty before draining the fryer.

•Once the filtration is finished, you can store the container :

-In the appliance: Turn the Oil Box control switch on Fry position. (fig.17). The appliance must be carried and transported flat.
