Solid cooking fats
To prevent fat from spraying and the appliance from becoming too hot, please
take the following precautions when using solid frying fat:
■
When using fresh fat, start by melting the blocks of fat slowly, under low
heat, in a separate pan. Then carefully pour the molten fat into the deep fat
fryer. When this has been done, insert the plug into a mains power socket
and switch the deep fat fryer on.
■
After use, store the deep fat fryer with the solidifi ed fat at room temperatures.
If the fat gets too cold, it could cause splattering on remelting! To avoid this, poke
a few holes into the solidifi ed fat with a wooden or plastic spatula. Ensure that
you do not damage the operating/heating element 5.
To melt the fat, switch on the appliance using the on/off switch 0 and set
■
the temperature control 8 to 130˚C. The integrated control lamp in the on/
off switch 0 will light up.
Wait until all of the fat has melted. The green control lamp 9 can come on
■
and go out several times during this process. Do not set the desired frying
temperature until all of the fat has melted.
