fryer does not heat up in the first few minutes without an even covering of fat (see fig. 5).

Warning:

the level of oil must always be between the maximum and minimum levels (max. 4 lt. - min. 2,850 lt.) as indicated on the inside of the bowl. Never exceed this limit, as oil may overflow from the bowl. Do not use the deep fryer when the level of oil is below the ‘min’ mark as this may trip the thermal safety device (see thermal safety device paragraph to reset the device).

• Place the lid on the fryer

Pre-heating

•Move the switch to position 1 (see Fig. 6).The light on the switch will be lit.

•Place the food to be fried in the basket, without overfilling (max 1.3 kg of fresh potatoes).When frying ensure the food is evenly distribu- ted in the basket. If cooking from frozen remove as much ice as pos- sible by shaking the basket before placing it in the oil (see Frying Fro- zen Foods paragraph). Check that the handle of the basket is cor- rectly positioned (pos. 2 in Fig. 2).

•Turn the thermostat knob (see Fig. 7) to the required temperature (see cooking table).

•When the set temperature is reached, the temperature light will go out.

Frying

•As soon as the temperature light goes out remove the lid and place the basket into the oil, lowering it very slowly to prevent the hot oil from spraying or overflowing. Replace the lid.

•It is completely normal for a significant quantity of hot steam to be relea- sed after placing the basket in the fryer and for condensation to drip from the edge of the lid.

•To avoid the risk of burns, never place your hands above the filter on the lid or above the deep fryer when frying. Before removing the lid completely lift the lid slowly to release steam from the side.

After frying

•When the set cooking time has elapsed, remove the lid slowly, lift the basket and make sure the food has reached the required colour.

•If the food is completely cooked, turn the appliance off by moving the thermostat knob to the “MIN” position, until it clicks.

•Turn off the switch. The light on the switch will go out.

•Allow the excess oil to drain by hooking the basket onto the sup- port in the bowl.

•N.B. When cooking in two phases (eg. potatoes) or if more food
