[. . . ] Allow to cool before putting on or removing any parts. Do not operate the appliance with a damaged cord or plug, or after the appliance has been damaged in any manner. If the supply cord or appliance is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or its service agent or a similarly qualified person in order to avoid a hazard. Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or counter or let it come into contact with any hot surfaces. [. . . ] Add the chosen food to be deep fried to the basket Close the lid lightly until a click is heard. Lower the basket into the oil slowly by pressing the handle lock button downwards and lowering the handle. Ensure that the oil level does not rise above the maximum level. When the food is cooked, raise the basket handle to its horizontal position (until a click is heard). This will raise the basket out of the oil. Leave for about 20 seconds until most of oil has drained away from the food. Press the Lid Release Button and the lid will open by itself. NOTE: the steam generated during frying will escape when the lid is opened. Turn the temperature adjustment knob to the OFF position and unplug the fryer. Do not move the fryer until completely cooled. Practical advice Oils and fats Always use oil that can withstand high temperatures. · Do not mix different types of oil. · Change the oil when it becomes brown after cooking (roughly after 20 frying sessions). · Never fill the food basket more than half full. Preparing the food · Whatever the recipe used, the food must be perfectly dry: this will avoid overflowing; spitting and will help the oil last longer. · When preparing potato-based food (chips, crisps, etc. ), cut them up and then wash them in cold water to remove the starch. Cooking · Do not overfill the basket. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and make the food greasy. · Do not keep the oil at a high temperature for long periods. This will make the oil lose its properties. · · Set the temperature controller to the lowest temperature while waiting between two batches. Do not leave the cooked food in the basket in the draining position too long. The vapours could cause the food to lose its crispness and go soft. After Cooking · Oil can be left in the fryer to cool with its basket and lid on. · Change the oil regularly. Cleaning and maintenance · · · · Switch off and unplug the appliance when cleaning and wait until cool before cleaning.
