For Your Safety

When used properly your appliance is completely safe but as with any electrical product there are certain

precautions that must be observed.

PLEASE READ THE BELOW PRECAUTIONS BEFORE USING YOUR APPLIANCE.

To maintain the efficiency and safety of this appliance, we recommend you do the following:

-only call the Service Centres authorised by the manufacturer.

-always use genuine spare parts.

ALWAYS:

-make sure you remove all packaging and dispose of safely.

-check the soundness of the appliance after it has been unpacked.

-make sure you understand the controls before using the appliance.

-keep children away from the appliance during use.

-take care to avoid heat/steam burns when operating the control.

-make sure the control is turned off when you have finished cooking and when not in use.

-disconnect from the power supply, and allow to cool, before cleaning or performing maintenance.

-refer servicing to a qualified appliance service engineer.

-keep the appliance clean as a build up of grease or fat from cooking can cause a fire.

-follow the basic principles of food handling and hygiene to prevent the possibility of bacterial growth.

-before putting oil into the bowl for the first time, carefully clean the steel parts and the heater, so as to remove any residue left from manufacture.

-use vegetable oil suitable for frying, we do not recommend oil from assorted seeds or sunflower oil.

-ensure there is at least the minimum 2 litres and a maximum of 2.7 litres, of oil in the bowl. Should the level drop below 2 litres during use, fresh oil must be added. It is advisable to add oil of the same type. (Maximum and Minimum measures are indicated on the bowl).

-change the oil regularly.

-if to be re-used, filter the oil before using again. Oil can be used several times, filtering removes excess deposits.

-even if oil is well filtered, small residual particles can catch fire during cooking.

-wait until the oil has reached the required temperature.

-dry food thoroughly before cooking and lower it slowly into the hot oil or fat.

-for frozen food it is advisable to defrost it at a low temperature and then fry it at a high temperature.

-note that in preparing certain dishes (fried potatoes) you will get the best results by precooking at 160°C and then subsequently cooking at 180°C.

-keep any ventilation slots clear of obstructions.

NEVER:

-attempt to install or repair the appliance without the assistance of qualified personnel.

-store items above the appliance that children may attempt to reach.

-use the appliance to heat up anything other than food.

-use the appliance as a room heater.

-dry any items on the appliance.

-use adapters, multiple sockets and/or extension leads.

-turn on the fryer when the heater is out of the bowl.

-turn on the fryer without oil in the bowl.

-do not exceed the maximum of 2.7 litres of oil.

-fry too much food at a time, especially frozen food. This only lowers the temperature or the oil or fat too much, resulting in greasy food.

-avoid, if possible, adding salt or flavourings directly to the fryer. Quality of salt is reduced by the oil.

-pull on the appliance or the supply cable to unplug it from the electrical outlet.

-allow power cables of other appliances to come into contact with hot parts of this appliance.
