• NEVER ADD WATER TO THE OIL. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND CAN CAUSE THE

OIL TO SPLASH VIOLENTLY!

• Avoid contact with the hot oil.

• Avoid touching hot surfaces. Always wear gloves.

• Caution! Scalding steam can be emitted from the ventilation holes on the filter cover when

frying.

• Always allow the oil to cool before moving, emptying or cleaning the apparatus. Keep the

lid closed if moving the apparatus when full.

• The apparatus or cord must not be submerged in water or any other liquid.

• NOnly use the accompanying accessories.

• Use only metal kitchen implements in the apparatus, as the hot oil can melt plastic

implements. Never leave implements in the apparatus, as they will become hot.

• Make sure the apparatus is kept clean, as it comes into contact with food.

• NB! If a fire starts in the apparatus, never try to put it out with water! Instead, close the

lid and try to smother the flames with a damp cloth or wet towel. Remove the plug from

• If smoke or sparks appear in the apparatus, remove the plug from the socket immediately

and get an authorized repair engineer to check it.

• Remove the plug from the socket when cleaning, or when the device 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 cable or any extension cable.

PRIOR TO FIRST USE

• Remove all packaging from the apparatus and prepare for use according to safety

instructions.

• Clean lid (2), bowl (12), handle (14), basket (13), filter cover (3) and cabinet as described

under ‘Cleaning’.

• Check the anti-odour filter (16) is correctly fitted (as described under ‘Replacing anti-

odour filter’.)

NB! The apparatus may emit a little smoke and odour the first time it is used which does not

come from the food inside. This is due to oil residue from manufacture and is neither abnormal

nor dangerous.

USE

Heating the oil

1. Check the apparatus is switched off. Remove basket from bowl.

2. Check bowl is positioned with the hole in the basket at the front.

3. Pour the required amount of oil into the bowl. Fill the oil to somewhere between the

minimum and maximum indicator on the bowl o NB! Use only oil recommended for deep

frying and not other types of (solid) fats.

4. Close the lid.

5. Set temperature at selector (9) and switch on at mains.

6. Turn timer (10) to “ON” or use the timed frying function to select the desired number of

minutes. When the time has expired, a bell will ring and the apparatus will switch off

automatically (see ‘Using timer’ below). Remember that the apparatus must be switched

off manually by turning the timer to “OFF” if you have selected the “ON” function. The

power indicator light (7) will come on. Do not add the food until the required temperature

is reached.

• Once the oil begins to heat up, the temperature indicator light (8) comes on. The

indicator light goes off again once the required temperature has been reached. The

thermostat comes on and goes off during use, which merely means that it is

maintaining the selected temperature.

• It takes around 20 minutes for the oil to reach maximum temperature of 190 C.

Using timer

The apparatus is fitted with a mechanical timer which will switch it off when the time set has

expired. The timer can be set between 0 and 30 minutes. Turn the timer clockwise to the

required number of minutes. The apparatus will switch on. When the time has expired, a bell

will ring and the apparatus will switch off. Remember the oil will still be hot. Remove the food

immediately.

Cooking food

Follow the instructions below for cooking food. See also ‘Cooking tips’.

Before lowering the basket

• Always make sure that the food is dry before lowering it into the hot oil.

• Ensure that the food is roughly the same size so that it cooks evenly. Avoid very thick

pieces.

• Make sure you remove as much ice as possible from frozen food.

• Avoid overfilling the basket. Do not fill the basket more than 2/3rds.

• Ensure basket handle is in the horizontal position.

NB! Be careful, as the oil may spit.

2. Place the basket containing the food so that it hangs on the edge of the bowl, and lock the

basket handle into place on the front of the bowl.

4. When the temperature indicator light is out, press the handle release button (15) and tip

the handle downwards to lower the basket into the oil.

NB! The handle may be very hot after any prolonged period of use.

5. Switch the apparatus on by turning the timer to “ON” or turn the timer to the required

number of minutes. When the time has expired, a bell will ring and the apparatus will

switch off.

Raising the basket

1. When the food is ready, raise the basket by holding the base of the handle and lifting it up

to a vertical position until it locks into place with a click.

2. Open the lid by pressing the release button.

3. Allow the oil to drip from the food before removing the basket.

4. Lift the basket carefully out of the bowl, tip the food into dish covered with absorbent

paper, e.g. kitchen roll.

NB! Ensure you do not press the handle release button while moving the basket filled with

hot food.

After cooking

1. Set the temperature control to the lowest possible temperature by turning it to the left as

far as possible.

2. Check timer is set to ”OFF/0”.

3. Remove the plug from the socket.

4. Allow apparatus to cool completely (1-2 hours), before draining the oil off, putting away or

cleaning.

NB! If you are going to cook several portions of food in succession, close the lid and wait until

the temperature indicator goes out after every portion, before beginning the next.

are signs that the oil should be changed:

• Oil has gone dark.

• Oil has an unpleasant smell.

• Oil develops thick smoke when heated.

• Oil foams excessively when cooking.

• All the oil should be changed at the same time; do not mix old and new oil. The old oil

should be disposed of as per the relevant local regulations. Keep the oil in the apparatus

or an airtight container in a dry, cool and dark place (not necessarily in the fridge).

CLEANING

• Allow to cool completely and disconnect plug from socket before emptying and cleaning the

apparatus.

• Clean the apparatus every time it has been used: o Wipe the apparatus’ cabinet and lid

inside and out with a well-wrung cloth which has been dipped in warm water with a little

detergent.

• The bowl, lid and basket and handle can be washed in warm water with washing-up

liquid. The basket can also be washed in a dishwasher.

• The lid can be removed for more thorough cleaning:

1. Open lid using release button.

2. Grip the lid at the back edge of the apparatus firmly with both hands, and pull upwards.

NB! The lid can be hard to remove.

3. Remove filter cover and extract filter as described below.

4. Wash the lid and filter cover in warm water with a little detergent. NB! Do not wash filter.

5. Replace lid by squeezing the metal clip on the lid back edge together, insert into the hole

in the cabinet and press down until the metal studs click into place.

• Do not use any kind of strong or abrasive cleaning agent.

• Never use a steel brush or scrubbing brush to clean the apparatus, as the surface may be

damaged.

CHANGING THE ANTI-ODOUR FILTER

The anti-odour filter must be replaced after every 10-15 uses. The filter consists of three

layers: two white (upper and lower respectively) and one black which goes in the middle. The

apparatus should be completely cool before replacement.

1. Remove filter cover by pressing the release button (4) towards the back edge of the

apparatus, and raise.

2.

Remove the filter and fit a new one.

3. Replace the filter cover by inserting the two studs on the back edge of the cover into the

two holes of the filter compartment back edge and press down, until they click into place.

STORAGE

• Wait until the apparatus is completely cool before putting it away.
