Use
Fryer (Fig. 2)
The appliance is operated using the Touch Control
commands (see the paragraph "Touch Control") which
can set a temperature between 80 and 200 °C.
The fryer has a probe that keeps the oil at a constant
temperature. In addition, if the main probe is not working
properly, a safety thermostat intervenes, at about 220°
C, to keep the oil from getting too hot. This device is very
easy to use but, to obtain the best results, you should
follow a few simple rules:
- Before putting oil in it for the first time, carefully clean
the steel parts and the heating elements to eliminate
any residues from the manufacturing process.
- Never turn the appliance on with the heating elements
turned outside the tub.
- Never turn the appliance on without oil in the tub.
- Always use vegetable oil suitable for frying: oils made
from sunflower and other seeds are not recommended.
- The quantity of oil in the tub can vary from a minimum
of 2 to a maximum of 2.7 litres. If the level of oil drops
below the minimum during frying, you must add fresh
oil. We recommend that you add the same type of oil.
The maximum and minimum levels are etched on the
vertical wall of the tub.
- The oil can be reused several times but we recommend
that you filter it between one use and the next to
remove any food residues.
- In any case, the oil should be changed very often
because, even if it is well filtered, small food residues
can catch fire during frying.
- Make sure that the food is perfectly dry before putting
in the fryer. Wait until the oil has reached the desired
temperature.
- We recommend that frozen foods be thawed at a low
temperature and then fried at a high temperature. The
temperature setting can vary with the quantity of food
to be cooked and the user's personal taste but, in
general, you should keep the following chart in mind:
Temperature Level
160° C
170° C
180° C
190° C
- During cooking, it is often necessary to add salt or
flavouring: to the extent possible, avoid doing this
directly in the fryer because salt falling in the oil
reduces its quality.
- If the fryer malfunctions, before asking for service, try
to reset the thermostat by pressing the little button that
you can see on the inside of the front wall, after you
remove the oil tub and unscrew the protection plug.
Food

fritters, fish

Maintenance
Unplug the appliance before performing any maintenance.
To increase the life of the appliance, it is essential to
periodically perform a general cleaning, keeping the
following in mind:
- the steel parts must be cleaned with a suitable product
(available in stores) that is not abrasive or corrosive.
Avoid products that contain chlorine (bleach, etc.);
- avoid leaving acid or alkaline substances on the work
surface (vinegar, salt, lemon juice, etc.).
