When the appliance has been switched off by the safety cut-out, let the oil or fat cool down

on/off switch will go out.

Preparing for use
Oil and fat
Never mix different kinds of oil or fat!
We advise you to use frying oil or liquid frying fat, preferably vegetable oil or fat that is rich in
unsaturated fats (e.g. linoleic acid).
It is possible to use solid frying fat, but in that case extra precautions are necessary to prevent the
fat from spattering and the heating element from overheating or becoming damaged.
1 If you want to use new blocks of fat, melt them slowly over a low heat in a normal pan.
2 Pour the melted fat carefully into the fryer.
3 Store the fryer with the resolidified fat still in it at room temperature.
If the fat gets very cold, it may start spattering when melted.
4 Punch some holes in the resolidified fat with a fork to prevent this (fig. 1).
Be careful not to damage the inner bowl with the fork.
Using the appliance
Frying
Be careful: hot steam will escape from the filter in the lid during frying.
1 Put the appliance on a horizontal, even and stable surface out of the reach of children.
If you want to place the fryer on top of the cooker, make sure the rings of the cooker have been
turned off.
2 Fill the dry fryer with oil, liquid fat or melted solid fat up to the top indication mark on the
inside of the inner bowl (see 'Preparing for use', section 'Oil and fat', for instructions on how
to use solid fat) (fig. 2).
