Important
• Read these instructions in conjunction with the illustrations (pages 3 and 26) before using
the appliance.
• Before plugging the fryer in, check if the voltage indicated on the appliance is the same as
the mains voltage in your home.
• Only connect the appliance to an earthed wall socket.
• Never immerse the control panel, heating element or mains cord in water.
• Clean the various parts thoroughly before using the fryer for the first time. Ensure that they
are thoroughly dry before filling the frying pan with oil or melted fat.
• In general, we advise you to use liquid frying fat or frying oil in this appliance.
Solid frying fat can also be used. However, when using solid frying fat extra precautions
must be taken to prevent spatting fat when melting. (See section "Deep fat frying".)
• Do not switch on until you have filled the frying pan with oil or (melted) fat.
• When using new fat (lumps or blocks), melt the fat in a separate pan and then pour it into
the fryer before switching on.
• Only use oils and fats which are recommended for deep fat frying. This information can be
found on the packing of these oils/fats.
• Always fill with oil or fat to the level between the two measure indications.
Before you start frying, always check if there is still sufficient oil/fat in the fryer.
• Do not exceed the maximum quantities indicated in the table. Never fill the basket higher to
3/4 full.
If the basket is overfilled, hot fat/oil may flow over the fryer ridge.
• During the process of frying hot steam comes from the appliance. Keep your hands and
face away from this steam.
• The lid will keep the pan free from dust if not in use. Do not put the lid on the pan while
frying.
• Keep the deep fat fryer out of the reach of children at all times especially when in use.
• Do not let the mains cord hang over the edge of the table or sink.
• After use set the temperature knob to the lowest position (rotate anti-clockwise until it
stops). Remove the plug from the mains socket and let the oil or fat cool down. Do not
move the fryer until it has cooled sufficiently.
• If the mains cord of this appliance is damaged, it must only be replaced by Philips or their
service representative, as special tools and/or parts are required.
• Keep these instructions for future reference.

Automatic safety switch
(fig. 1) Extra safety
• The automatic safety switch (P) ensures that
the heating element can only be switched on if
the control panel is in position (fig. 1a).
• The safety thermostat switches the appliance
off when overheating occurs.
This may happen:
- if there is no (or too little) oil, melted fat, or
previously used (and resolidified) fat in the fryer
(fig. 2);
- if attempting to melt blocks or lumps of new fat
in the fryer (fig. 3).
The heat cannot be released quickly enough in
these cases.
