Temperature control
Use the temperature control knob to set the
temperature to the desired level.
Indicator lights
Th e red main indicator light remains lit as
long as the appliance is switched on.
Th e green light comes on once the pre-set
temperature level has been reached; it will be
out while the appliance is heating up
Frying basket
Th e basket is designed to hold the food to be
fried.
Always fi t the handle to the basket before
use. To attach the handle, press its two sides
together and insert the angled pieces into the
corresponding openings on the basket. Pull
the handle towards the rim of the basket and
use the two protruding support brackets to
secure it.
Capacity
We recommend a limit of 750 g of chips for
deep frying. Please refer to Useful hints for
deep-frying.
Inserting the frying basket:
– Take off the lid.
– Use the basket handle to hang the frying
basket onto its holding bracket inside the
frying container.
– Replace the lid.
– Slightly lift up the basket to clear the
holding bracket, and then lower it carefully
into the hot oil/fat.
Removing the frying basket / drain position:
– Take off the lid.
– Use the basket handle to lift up the basket
and place it onto the holding bracket; this
position allows the oil/fat to drain back into
the container.
– Once the excess oil has been drained off , lift
out the basket and, if frying is completed,
replace the lid.
Useful hints for deep-frying
Food cooked in oil is especially tasty and
nourishing.
When the food is put into the hot oil, it is
immediately sealed as a result of the high
temperature, preventing fat from entering
the food or juice from escaping.
Th at way, essential proteins, vitamins and
minerals etc. are preserved.
Please observe the following:
1.
Do not overfi ll the frying basket:
otherwise the temperature of the oil/
fat will drop and subsequently cause the
food to absorb an excessive amount of
fat/oil.
2.
Th e quality of oft en-used oil/fat cannot
be improved by mixing with fresh oil.
Th e fresh oil/fat would be spoiled aft er
a short while as well.
3.
To prevent the oil/fat from frothing
over, make sure that the food is
thoroughly dried. Take special care to
defrost deep-frozen food thoroughly
before frying. Moisture reduces the
life-span of frying oil/fat.
4.
For good results, the right temperature
setting is a decisive factor when deep-
frying. If the oil/fat is not suffi ciently
hot, the food may take in too much oil/
fat. It is therefore best to insert the food
basket only once the heating up period
is complete and the pre-set temperature
level has been reached. However, if the
oil/fat is too hot, a crust will be built up
too fast while the inner part of the food
remains uncooked.
5.
Deep-frozen or partly frozen food
should be briefl y inserted into the hot
oil/fat once or twice before the actual
process.
6.
To prevent the oil/fat from frothing
over, the frying basket should be
lowered slowly and cautiously into the
hot oil/fat.
7.
Do not fry too much food at once. Th e
food should be allowed to fl oat freely
without the pieces touching each other.
