Warning – Risk of fire!
If the minimum fill level is not met (bottom mark), the
element can overheat. Add oil or fat in good time.
Deep-fat frying
During deep-fat frying, the heat generated by the
appliance is transferred to the food being fried via the
fat. This rapid cooking process forms a tasty crust on
the food. The temperature range for deep-fat frying is
between 150 and 190 °C.
Notes
Break up the fresh frying fat into small pieces before
■
melting it. When reusing frying fat, make a hole in
the solid mass of fat (e.g. using the handle of a
wooden spoon) before melting it, pushing right down
to the heating element.
Only use pure vegetable oil or vegetable fat for
■
deep-fat frying. Avoid using blends of fat.
When frying fat may emit smoke as it melts. This is
■
normal.
Deep fryer settings
Ensure the drain valve is closed.
Note:
Fill the frying basin with 4 litres of frying oil or 3.5 kg
1.
of frying fat.
Set the temperature using the temperature selector.
2.
When the heating light goes out, immerse the deep
3.
frying basket containing the food to be fried in the
oil/fat.
When you have finished deep-fat frying, remove the
4.
deep frying basket and gently shake it to remove any
excess oil/fat.
To allow the remaining oil/fat to drain, hook the deep
frying basket into the suspension device.
Heating light
The heating light lights up while the deep-fat fryer is
heating up. The heating light goes out when the deep-
fat frying oil/fat has reached the set temperature.
Safety cut-out
The safety cut-out automatically switches off the deep
fryer if the frying basin is not filled with oil/fat up to at
least the bottom marking.
Switch off the deep fryer and allow it to cool down.
1.
Fill the frying basin with at least 3 litres of frying oil/
2.
fat.
Push the safety pin on the front of the housing in
3.
firmly (e.g. using a ball-point pen).
You can now use the deep fryer again.
Draining the frying oil/fat
If the food being fried is no longer becoming crispy
despite the temperature being set correctly, you need to
change the oil/fat.
:
Warning – Risk of burns!
Hot oil or fat may spray out from the drain valve during
draining. Allow the oil or fat to cool down until it is
lukewarm before draining.
Place a heat-resistant container with a capacity of
1.
over 4 litres under the drain valve.
Open the drain valve underneath the deep fryer and
2.
drain the used oil/fat.
Drain the fat while it is still warm and liquid. If the
Note:
fat solidifies in the drain valve, you can push it through
using a thin object such as the handle of a wooden
spoon.
Do not pour oil/fat down the sink or toilet;
Note:
dispose of it at designated collection points instead.
