operations, make several holes in it
using a fork. When doing this, take care
not to damage the element.
6. BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Remove the basket (3) and place the
handle (15) in its working position (Fig.
2). To assemble the basket handle:
- Press the two ends and insert them
into the two housings in which they
will turn. See (Fig. 2 a).
- Turn the handle towards the outside
of the basket (Fig. 2 b) by pressing it
against the 'U' shaped fixer until it is
firmly fixed in place. See (Fig. 2 c).
• Remove the control panel and element
and place in a safe, dry place (Fig. 3).
• Remove all packaging material from
inside the pan.
Clean the basket and pan with soapy water.
Rinse and dry well before reassembling
(See the section entitled 'Cleaning').
Warning: Do not submerge the control
panel and element in water.
• Place the control panel again, taking
care to introduce through the guides of
the outer housing. (Fig.7). The appliance
is also equipped with a microswitch that
prevents it from working if the control
panel is not correctly in position.
7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
• Place the appliance on a flat, stable,
horizontal surface well away from the
edge, and make sure that the cable is
not hanging over the side of the table or
worksurface and is not touching any hot
surfaces.
Note: When the unit is first powered
up the default setting is for frozen
chips, press "√" to start heating the oil,
alternately:
1. Press the MENU button one or more
times to cycle through the preset menu
settings. (See table below).
Preset Cooking Menu
Food Cooking
Frozen Chips 10 minutes
Chicken 15 minutes
Vegetable 5 minutes
Fish 7 minutes
The preset temperature and time may be
adjusted before pressing the "√" button
by following the steps 1 to 5 shown on
point "to set temperature and cooking time
manually".
Once the required menu has been selected
press the "√" button to start heating the
oil.
The red POWER indicator light will stop
flashing and the oil will start to heat up. As
the oil heats up the display will show the
temperature rising.
When the fryer is ready for use, the green
READY indicator light will illuminate. This
light will cycle on and off during cooking as
the thermostat regulates the temperature.
The red POWER indicator light will remain
illuminated.
To fry using the preset menu settings
1. With the basket on the frying bowl add
the food item(s), take hold of the handle,
lift the basket off the frying bowl and
gently lower it into the hot oil. Take
care from the HOT oil spitting, and from
rising steam.
2. Press the "√" button and place the lid.
The remaining cooking time will start
counting down. IMPORTANT: Be very
careful as hot steam will come out when
you press the "√" button.
NOTE: When you place the basket
in the fryer, the temperature on the
display will drop considerably. This is
because the food is not at the same
temperature as the oil. It is also normal
for the appliance to stop heating up
the oil before it reaches the selected
temperature, as this prevents the
temperature from being exceeded. The
temperature that appears on the display
is not exact: it has a tolerance of ±15ºC.
