Putting Into Use; Using The Unit - BOMANN FFR 1290 CB Instrucciones De Servicio

• Avoid splattering. Fill the basket outside of the deep-fryer.
• Only fry inside the frying basket.
• If the appliance is used as a deep-fryer, keep the lid closed.
Electrical connection
1. Check if the mains voltage that you want to use matches
the one of the appliance. You will find the information about
this on the type plate on the appliance.
2. Connect the power cord to a properly installed protective
contact socket.

Putting into use

Before using for the first time
1. Remove the packaging. The deep-fat frying basket with
handle is located in the deep-fat fryer. The handle can be
inserted into the deep-fat frying basket.
2. We recommend cleaning the lid, housing and all accesso-
ries as described under "Cleaning".
Useful hints for use
1. Always remove the food remaining in the oil (e.g. pieces of
French fries). Change the oil after using it 8-10 times.
2. Deep frying fat must be capable of being heated to high
temperatures. Use high quality frying oil or frying grease.
Do not use margarine, olive oil or butter: they are not fit
for frying, because they start to smoke already at low
temperatures. In order to reduce the acrylamide content of
food containing starch (potatoes, cereals) the temperature
during deep-fat frying should not exceed 170°C (or possi-
bly 175°C). Furthermore, the frying time should be kept as
short as possible and the food only fried until it turns golden
yellow.
3. Choose the right frying temperature and check the condi-
tions of the food to be fried. A rule of thumb is that pre-fried
foods require a higher temperature than raw foods.
4. Do not carry or move the deep fryer if the oil or grease is
still hot.
5. When frying dough-like foods scrape off the excess dough
and put the pieces carefully into the oil.
6. Do not overfill the frying basket.
7. Rub dry humid foods with a cloth before frying.

Using the unit

Deep-Fat Frying
1. Make sure that the appliance is unplugged and switched
off.
2. Open the lid.
3. Remove the frying basket and fill the container with oil or
grease (maximum 1.0 l). The filling level must be located
between the minimum and the maximum level.
CAUTION:
• If you use fat, divide it up into small pieces and place
it on the floor of the deep frying vessel.
• Under no circumstances should you place the fat in
the deep frying basket!
4. Close the lid. Insert the plug into a properly installed power
socket. The "POWER" control lamp lights up.
5. Adjust the temperature control device to the desired tem-
perature. The "HEAT" control lamp lights up. Once the set
temperature is reached, the LED switches off.
6. Now fill the deep-fry basket. Please ensure that the basket
is not filled above the hot fat.
7. Open the lid and fill the frying basket with the food to be
fried. Remove the handle from the deep-fat frying basket.
8. Close the lid.
9. At the end of the frying time (the frying time is specified on
the package of the food or in the recipe) open carefully the
lid (Warning! Hot steam may be released!). Now remove
the deep-fat frying basket with the handle.
10. Let the oil drip from the food being fried.
Fondue
CAUTION:
• The device is not suitable for making cheese or chocolate
fondue. These ingredients could burn or boil over in the
deep-fat frying vessel.
1. Make sure that the appliance is unplugged and switched
off.
2. The lid can be removed by pulling upwards. In order to do
so, open the lid and separate it from the hinge of the hous-
ing.
3. Remove the frying basket and fill the container with oil or
grease (maximum 1.0 l). The filling level must be located
between the minimum and the maximum level.
CAUTION:
• If you use fat, divide it up into small pieces and place
it on the floor of the deep frying vessel.
• Under no circumstances should you place the fat in
the deep frying basket!
4. Put the fork holder in place.
5. Insert the plug into power socket. The "POWER" control
lamp lights up.
6. Adjust the temperature control to approx. 130°C. The
"HEAT" control lamp lights up. Once the set temperature is
reached, the LED switches off.
With a wooden stick (e.g. shashlik spit or wooden cooking
spoon) you can test whether the correct temperature has
been reached. When this is inserted into the oil, small air
bubbles should rise up along the wooden stick. Alterna-
tively, you can place a piece of the food to be fried into the
hot oil. If bubbles are formed, the frying fat has reached the
right temperature.
