NOTE:
■ Only fill the oil tank with cooking oil. Do not fill with any other liquids, such
as water, milk or coffee.
■ Do not fill solid fats in the oil tank to avoid fire or overheating the appliance.
Solid fats must be completely melted before adding into the oil tank.
■ Always use oil that can withstand high temperature.
■ Do not mix different types of oil. Never add fresh oil to used oil.
5. Close the lid (10).
6. Ensure the Thermostat knob (1c) is turned anti-clockwise to "OFF", then plug the
power cord into the wall socket. The red POWER indicator light (1a) will illuminate
to indicate that the appliance is on.
7. Turn the Thermostat knob (1c) to the desired temperature (OFF-130-150-170-
190 °C), according to the type of food being fried. The green HEATING indicator
light (1b) will illuminate when the appliance is heating up the oil to the set
temperature, and will go off when the set temperature is reached.
8. When the green HEATING indicator light (1b) goes off, open the lid (10) and place
the frying basket (9) slowly into the oil tank to avoid splashes or overflowing.
9. Close the lid (10).
NOTE:
■ During frying, the green HEATING indicator light will cycle on and off. This
is normal and indicates that the appliance is automatically maintaining the
set temperature.
■ The appliance may emit a large amount of steam at the beginning of the
cooking process. This is due to the water content of the food and moisture
on the surface of the food. The steam may escape from the gap between
the lid and the oil tank. As the food cooks, the surface dehydrates rapidly to
leave a crispy skin.
10. When the food is cooked, turn the Thermostat knob (1c) to "OFF".
11. Open the lid slowly. Beware of hot steam or oil splattering.
12. Lift the frying basket and hook it on the rim of the oil tank with the drain hook
under the handle to drain excess oil, and transfer the food to a plate lined with
kitchen paper.
13. Once finished using the appliance, turn the Thermostat knob (1c) to "OFF" and
unplug the power cord from the wall socket. The red POWER indicator (1a) will
go off.
14. Allow the deep fryer and oil to cool down completely before emptying and
cleaning (→ "6. CLEANING AND CARE").
WARNING: Never leave the appliance unattended while it is plugged or
cooling down. Serious hot oil burns may result from a deep fryer being
accidentally pulled off a countertop. Keep children and pets away at all
times. Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of the counter where
it may be grabbed by children or accidentally tripped by anyone.
RISK OF FIRE: Overheated oil or fat can ignite very quickly. Never leave
heating oil or fat unsupervised. Should the oil ignite, do not try to put
it out by pouring water on it. Cover the oil tank with a lid or plate
immediately. Turn off and unplug the fryer and leave the oil tank on the
base to cool down.
