[. . . ] · Do not remove the plug by tugging the power cable: always use the plug itself. · The power cable must not be placed near or against the hot parts of the appliance, sources of heat or sharp edges. · Do not position the appliance near sources of heat or where water may be present. · Serious burns may be caused by the deep fryer falling. [. . . ] Remove the basket (S) by lifting it upwards. · If oil is used, pour it into the bowl (R) until reaching the maximum level indicated (see Fig. Never exceed this limit, as oil may overflow from the container. The level of oil must always be between the maximum and minimum limits (F). For best results, use good quality peanut oil. · If lumps of fat are used, cut the lumps into pieces and melt them in another container, then pour the liquefied fat into the deep fryer bowl. Never melt the fat in the basket or on the deep fryer heating element (see Fig. 4). PREHEATING · Place the food to be fried in the basket (S), without exceeding the maximum level indicated on the basket (fig. Check that the handle of the basket is correctly positioned (pos. · Move the thermostat knob (A) (see fig. 5) to the required temperature (see cooking table), the oil temperature light (green) (C) comes off. · When the set temperature is reached, the green light (C) comes on. FRYING · As soon as light (C) comes on, lower the basket (S) into the oil very slowly to avoid the hot oil splashing or overflowing. · A significant amount of steam will be released: this is completely normal. · When the set cooking time has elapsed, lift the basket (S) and check that the food has been cooked to the required colour. · If the food is completely cooked, turn the appliance off by moving the thermostat knob (A) to the "·" posi9 tion. To cook more than one batch of food, wait until the green light comes on, indicating that the oil is again at the set temperature. Then slowly place the basket (S) in the oil a second time. HOW LONG THE OIL OR FAT LASTS The level of oil or fat must never fall below the minimum. Every now and then it must be completely changed. The life of the oil or fat depends on what foods are being fried. Food coated in breadcrumbs, for example, dirties the oil more than simple frying. As for any deep fryer, the oil deteriorates after being heated a number of times!Therefore, even if used correctly, it should be completely changed on a regular basis. FRYING NON-FROZEN FOOD Never overfill the basket, as this may cause a sudden drop in the temperature of the oil and thus greasier and less uniform frying. [. . . ] The infiltration of water into the control unit may cause electrocution. Check that the oil has cooled down, and then remove the control unit and drain the oil. Remove the deposits from the bowl using a sponge or absorbent paper. Except for the control unit, power cable and heating element, all the other parts can be cleaned with warm water and dishwashing detergent (see Fig. [. . . ]
