Always ensure that you use a good quality oil for deep frying. We recommend corn, groundnut, rape seed or vegetable oils. Do not use margarine, butter or olive oil.

Avoid mixing oil of different qualities.

Change the oil when it becomes brown or milky in colour.

If there are water droplets on the base of the tank, the oil should be changed.

Change the oil in your appliance after frying 15 times.

Do not use utensils that may melt. Metal utensils become hot and therefore should have insulated handles.

IMPORTANT: When using metal utensils take care not to damage the heating element.

Your fryer has a maximum capacity of 700g of food, depending on food type (see ‘Frying times & temperature chart’).

Avoid leaving food to drain for too long in the basket as the food may become soft and lose its crunchiness.

If filled with oil

1Remove the lid, basket and control unit.

2Remove the tank and pour out the oil through fine muslin or absorbent paper placed in a suitable funnel into a container.

3Wash the lid, basket and tank by hand in hot soapy water.

You can wash the tank in the dishwasher.

4Clean the control unit with a damp cloth and/or paper tissue.

Cooking

Take into account the food to be cooked before you select your frying temperature.

As a general guide pre-cooked food needs a higher cooking temperature than raw food.

Your food must always be completely dry in order to avoid overflowing and to prolong the use of the oil.

All foodstuffs, particularly frozen food and potatoes, contain moisture. When lowered into the hot oil, the water in the food turns to steam and escapes.

Do not overload the basket as it may cause a drop of the temperature that may leave the food greasy.

Chips

Old potatoes are ideal for making chips. Your chips should be evenly sized so that they cook evenly. They should be rinsed in a colander under a cold tap and dried using a kitchen towel or absorbent paper. For best results fry your chips at 160°C for 4-6 minutes and then place the basket on its rest. Turn the temperature dial to 190°C and when the temperature control light goes out lower the basket again for a further 2-4 minutes. During this time, shake the basket at short intervals to ensure the chips get an even browning.

For best results with frozen chips, we recommend no more than 600g are being used.

IMPORTANT: Never immerse the control unit in water.

IMPORTANT: Ensure that the wires connected to the heating element are not damaged while cleaning.

5Dry all parts of your fryer thoroughly and replace the tank, control unit, basket and lid. When replacing the tank, make sure that it is in the

correct way round with the max/min lines to the right. C

You may store your filtered oil in the fryer if you make sure that it is covered by the lid.
