INTRODUCTION

To get the best out of your new deep fat fryer, please read through these instructions carefully before using it for the first time. Pay particular attention to the safety measures. We also recommend that you keep the instructions for future reference, so that you can remind yourself of the functions of the deep fat fryer.

SAFETY MEASURES

• Use the deep fat fryer for its intended purpose only. The manufacturer is not responsible for any damage resulting from incorrect use or handling (see also Guarantee Terms).

• The deep fat fryer may only be

connected to 230 V, 50 Hz.

• The deep fat fryer should not be switched on unless it is full of oil.

• Never add water to the oil. This is extremely dangerous and may cause the oil to spit violently from the bowl!

• Avoid contact with the hot oil.

• Always place the deep fat fryer at the back of a kitchen counter and at a safe distance from flammable objects such as curtains, cloths or similar.

the deep fat fryer has been dropped or damaged in any other way. If the deep fat fryer, cord or plug is damaged, the deep fat fryer must be inspected and, if necessary, repaired by an authorised repair engineer, otherwise there is a risk of electric shock. Never try to repair the appliance yourself.

•Remove the plug from the socket when cleaning, or when the deep fat fryer is not in use. Avoid pulling the cord when removing the plug from the socket. Instead, hold the plug. Check that it is not possible to pull or trip over the deep fat fryer cord or any extension cable.

•Never leave the deep fat fryer unattended when in use and keep an eye on children.

•Make sure the deep fat fryer is always clean when it comes into contact with the food.

•This deep fat fryer is not suitable for commercial or outdoor use.

Important!

If a fire starts in the deep fat fryer, you must never try to put it out with water! Instead, close the lid and try to smother the flames with a damp cloth or wet hand towel.
