• Do not forget that the oil may deteriorate
and even catch fire if heated for too long
at a high temperature. If the oil were to
catch fire, unplug the appliance
immediately and place the lid on the pan.
This will cut off the oxygen supply,
thereby smothering the fire. For your own
safety, never use water to put out the fire.
• Unplug the appliance while not in use or
before carrying out any maintenance or
cleaning operation.
• To switch the appliance off, first turn the
switch to its '0' position and then unplug
the cable from the mains.
• Do not leave the appliance unattended
while in use. Switch the appliance off
whenever you leave the room, even if it is
only for a brief moment.
• Let the oil cool before cleaning and
storing the appliance.
• Do not use the appliance if the power
cable or plug are damaged, or in the
event of breakdown or improper
functioning. Regularly check the power
cable for damage.
• The user should never try to replace the
appliance's cable. If the cable were to
become damaged or need replacing, take
the appliance to a Technical Assistance
Service authorised by the manufacturer
for examination, repair or adjustment.
• Do not let the cable hang over the edge
of the table or worktop, or come into
contact with hot surfaces.
• Never pull on the cable to unplug the
appliance.
• Do not leave the appliance on or near a
gas burner or electric hotplate, or inside
or near a hot oven or a microwave oven.
• While in use, keep the appliance out of
the reach of children and the disabled.
• Never use the appliance outside or
expose it to the elements (rain, sun, frost,
etc.).
• When you decide to dispose of the
appliance definitively, unplug it and
render it unserviceable by cutting the
power cable, for example.

4. RECOMMENDATIONS FOR USE

• We recommend that you use vegetable oil
suitable for frying at high temperatures.
You can also use liquid or solid fat. If you
use solid fat, take the necessary
precautions to prevent the element from
overheating (see 'Using with solid fat').
• Do not use the fryer with too little oil/fat or
with no oil/fat. The oil/fat level should be
between the minimum and maximum
marks indicated on the pan (6). Before
switching the fryer on, make sure the oil
level is correct.
Safety
• This fryer is equipped with a thermal
safety device which switches it off in the
event of overheating. This generally
occurs when there is no (or too little) oil
or fat in the pan; the appliance may also
overheat while solid fat is melting.
If the thermal device cuts off the power
supply, proceed as follows:
• Unplug the fryer and wait for the oil or fat
to cool.
• Press the switch located in the cable
housing at the back of the control panel
(4). The fryer will now work once again
(Fig. 7).
The appliance is also equipped with a
microswitch that prevents it from working if
the control panel is not correctly in position.
5. USING WITH SOLID FAT
If you use solid fat for frying, make sure you
take the following precautions:
• Melt the fat in a pan over a low heat.
• Carefully pour the melted fat into the
fryer, taking care not to exceed the MAX
level mark.
• See 'Instructions for use'.
• If you are going to use the solid fat left
over in the fryer from earlier cooking
operations, make several holes in it
using a fork. When doing this, take care
not to damage the element.
• Next, set the thermostat (8) to 160º,
leave to heat for a minute and then
