8

Before first use

Remove all packaging materials and any promotional
labels from your deep fryer.
Wash the lid, removable bowl and wire frying basket
in hot soapy water and dry thoroughly. Wipe inside of
the bowl with a damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
1. Place the deep fryer on a dry, level surface.
Ensure the deep fryer is not too close to the
edge of the bench top, and that the power cord
or basket handle does not hang over the edge.
2. With the basket out of the deep fryer, add oil to
the bowl. Ensure not to add less than the
minimum level mark or exceed the maximum
level mark (3 litres).
Important : NEVER exceed the maximum fill
level (3 litres).
Note
3. Replace the lid.
4. Plug the power cord into a 230/240 volt power
outlet and turn on the power ‘On’ switch.
5. Turn the temperature control dial to the
desired temperature. The red ‘Power On‘ light
will illuminate.
Your Avance Forte Deep Fryer is fitted with a
special interlock switch and will not operate if
not properly assembled.
Note
6. Preheat the oil at the selected temperature until
the ‘Green’ temperature ready light illuminates.
When cooking the first batch of food, allow the
deep fryer to cycle on and off twice (as indicated
by the green temperature ‘Ready’ light) before
placing the food into the deep fryer. This will
take approximately 15-20 minutes.
Note
7. When the oil has preheated, place the basket into
the deep fryer in the raised position, with the
basket handle in the extended horizontal position
(see fig 4).
8. Add food to the basket. Do not fill the basket so
that it is more than two-thirds full.
9. Holding the fryer basket handle lift from the
holding position and gently lower the basket into
the oil.
10. You may choose to cook with the lid on or off
the deep fryer.
Uniform-sized pieces will cook more evenly.
Note
11. When the food is cooked, raise the basket out of
the oil to drain, then turn temperature control
dial back to 150°C then turn the power ‘Off’ with
the power switch, then unplug the power cord.
12. Keep the basket in the raised position for a
few minutes to drain the oil from the food
before serving.
13. If continuing to cook allow the unit to reheat
until the ‘Green’ temperature light illuminates.
14. Allow the deep fryer to fully cool before
emptying the oil or cleaning the unit.

POWER CORD NEEDS TO BE FULLY EXTENDED BEFORE USE.

ALWAYS ADD THE REQUIRED AMOUNT OF OIL BEFORE SWITCHING THE POWER ON AT THE

POWER OUTLET.

DURING AND IMMEDIATELY AFTER COOKING, YOU MAY SEE STEAM RISING THROUGH THE

FILTER VENT OPENINGS IN THE LID. THIS IS NORMAL, HOWEVER AVOID TOUCHING THIS AREA

DURING COOKING TO PREVENT STEAM BURNS AS THE STEAM THAT IS GENERATED IS AT A

HIGH TEMPERATURE.

AS THE BASKET ITSELF GETS VERY HOT, ONLY USE THE HANDLE TO HOLD OR CARRY THE

BASKET FOR SERVING.
