PREPARATION
1.
Sit the appliance on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface.
2.
Leave a space of at least 50mm all round the appliance.
3.
Position the appliance so that the basket handle doesn't extend up to or over the edge of
the work surface, where it is likely to be caught accidentally when passing.
4.
Unfold the basket handle and push the uprights over the latch above the hinge.
5.
Line a colander with kitchen paper, to drain the food after it's cooked.
ASSEMBLY
The basket handle is packed separately and must be fitted to the basket before use.
1.
Sqeeze the arms of the handle together then insert the ends through the two loops on the
bracket inside the basket (fig. A).
2.
Release the arms of the handle. Rotate the handle backwards so that it clips over the metal
clip and locks in place (fig. B).
3.
Make sure that the handle is securely fitted before using your fryer.
FILLING
1.
Fill the bowl with good quality liquid cooking oil to between the MIN (450 ml) and MAX
(900 ml) marks on the side of the bowl.
2.
Don't use solid cooking oil, fat, butter or margarine.
3.
Don't mix oils of different types, as they will have different temperature characteristics.

FOOD PREPARATION

1.
Cut food into uniformly sized pieces.
2.
Coat wet foods (e.g. fish, pineapple) with flour, breadcrumbs, batter, etc.
3.
Don't use the appliance to defrost food. Any food other than pre-cooked, quick-frozen
foods must be fully defrosted before putting into the appliance.
4.
When cooking pre-packed foods, follow any guidelines on the package or label.
5.
When cooking raw vegetables (e.g. potato chips or slices), dry the pieces off with kitchen
paper or a tea towel.
USING YOUR FRYER
1.
Set the temperature control to the required temperature (80-190°C).
2.
Put the plug into the power socket.
3.
The thermostat light will come on, then cycle on and off as the thermostat maintains the temperature.
4.
Wait till the light goes out before cooking.
5.
Put the prepared food pieces in the basket.
6.
Try not to put more than two layers of food in the basket. If you need to cook more, do it in
batches.
