The flexible mains lead is supplied connected to a B. S. 1363 fused plug having a fuse of 13 amp capacity.

Set thermostat knob "U" to the required temperature (fig. 4). When the temperature set has been reached, signal lamp "T" will switch off. Never touch the viewing window when frying as it becomes very hot. As soon as the signal lamp switches off, immerse the basket in the oil, lowering the handle slowly after sliding the handle's slider back "C". It is completely normal for a considerable amount of very hot steam to rise out of filter cover "F" immediately after this. At the start of cooking, immediately after the food has been immersed in the oil, the internal wall of viewing window "E" (where present) will steam up, before progressively clearing. It is normal for drops of condensation to form around the basket handle while the appliance is working. IN THE MODELS FITTED WITH THE ELECTRONIC MINUTE TIMER Set the cooking time by pressing key "O"; display "N" will show the minutes set. The figures will begin flashing immediately afterwards, signifying that the cooking time has started. The last minute will be visualised in seconds. In the event of error, the new cooking time can be set by keeping the key pressed down for more than 2 seconds. The display will reset itself, then repeat the process again. The minute timer will show the end of the cooking time with two series of beeps at an interval of about 20 seconds. In order to switch off the audible alarm you only need press minute timer button "O". The minute timer can be attached to clothing by the clip. WARNING: the minute timer does not switch the appliance off. Replacing the minute timer battery Remove the minute timer from its compartment (fig. Remove the back cover by screw driver (fig. 7) placed on the back in an anticlockwise direction until it is released. Replace the battery with another of the same type. If the appliance is to be replaced or thrown away, the battery must be removed and disposed of in accordance with the current laws as it represents an environmental hazard. 8 GB 11-02-2003 12:12 Pagina 9 AFTER FRYING When the cooking time runs out raise the basket and check if the food has reached the required golden colour. In the models fitted with a viewing window this check can be carried out by looking through the window without opening the lid. [. . . ] The food which is to be fried must only be immersed when the oil has reached the right temperature, i. e. This would cause the temperature of the oil to drop suddenly, resulting in fried food which is too greasy and not uniformly fried. When frying small quantities of food, the temperature of the oil must be set lower than the temperature indicated to avoid the oil boiling too violently. Check that the food is thinly sliced and of even thickness, as food which is too thick cooks badly on the inside, despite looking cooked, while food of an even thickness reaches the ideal cooking point all at the same time.
