Operating Your Breville product

WARNING

During and immediately after cooking, steam may rise 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 generated is at

a high temperature.

As the basket gets very hot, only use the handle to hold or carry the basket for serving. Ensure the basket handle is locked into position.

Solid oil products, such as butter, margarine or animal fats of any kind should not be used in the deep fryer as they may overheat and cause a fire hazard.

Water and oil do not mix – never add any water or other liquid to hot oil. Even small amounts of water will cause the oil to splatter.

Avoid the use of extension cords. Serious hot oil burns may result from a deep fryer being pulled off a bench top. Do not allow the cord to hang off the edge of a bench top where it may be grabbed by children, or become entangled by the user. Never leave the deep fryer unattended while in use.

The deep fryer will generate a lot of heat and steam during and after the cooking process. To prevent the risk of burns, do not touch or block the steam ventilation area on the lid.

Take care when opening the lid. This product generates heat and steam at high temperatures, which will escape immediately when the lid is opened. Avoid touching hot surfaces.

Extreme caution must be used when the deep fryer is filled with hot oil or other liquid. Do not move the deep fryer during cooking and allow it to cool before removing oil.
