DANGER for children
Ensure that the hot deep fryer can never
be pulled down by children (e.g. by the
power cable). In cases of scalding from
hot oil there is danger of death!
Packing materials are not children's
toys. Children must not be allowed to
play with the plastic bags. There is a
risk of suffocation.
DANGER to and from pets
and livestock
Electrical devices can represent a dan-
ger to pets and livestock. In addition,
animals can also cause damage to the
device. For this reason you should keep
animals away from electrical devices at
all times.
FIRE HAZARD
The deep fryer must never be used emp-
ty! Before switching on the device, the
oil container must always be filled at
least up to the MIN marking and it must
not exceed the MAX marking.
Old or dirty frying fats and oils, as well
as unsuitable fats and oils (e.g. marga-
rine, butter or olive oil) can even ignite
when heated.
Only use suitable oils and fats. Make
sure to clean and store the device care-
fully and to replace the frying fat/oil in
good time (see "The basics of frying" on
page 28).
Never mix different fats/oils or old and
new fat/oil.
If fat or oil catches fire, it must never be
extinguished with water, because this
would lead to a fat explosion. Extin-
guish the fire by putting the lid onto the
deep fryer, or with a fire blanket or a
woollen blanket.
Never leave the deep fryer unattended
during operation. You will thus be able
26 GB
to detect possible problems early on
due to unusual smells or noises.
Do not use the deep fryer under wall
units and not near to any curtains, pa-
per or any similar flammable objects.
The device must never be placed direct-
ly under a wall socket, as the arising
heat may lead to damage to the electric
system.
Keep a distance of at least 50 cm to
any other objects so that they cannot
catch fire.
The deep fryer should only be operated
on a stable, flat, non-slip, dry and non-
flammable work surface, in order to pre-
vent it from tipping over or slipping
away.
DANGER! Risk of injury
through burning
Hot fat and oil results in serious
burns because it is significantly
hotter than boiling water.
If water drips into hot fat or oil,
then this will lead to explosive
deflagrations.
Avoid any contact with hot fat/
oil or splashes of fat or oil.
Never move or transport the deep fryer
when containing hot fat/oil.
Never let water drip into the hot fat/oil.
The frying basket and the food to be
fried must be dry when they are put into
the hot fat/oil. In particular in the case
of deep-frozen food, any ice or melt wa-
ter should be removed.
The deep fryer should only be operated
with dry hands.
The frying basket and the lid should not
be immersed in water or any other liq-
uids before use.
Make sure that all parts of the deep fryer
are absolutely dry before they are used.
In combination with the heated fat/oil,
even small amounts of residual water
may lead to explosive deflagrations.
