Solid Cooking Fats

To avoid a spraying of the fat and that the appliance
becomes too hot, please take the following precau-
tions when using solid frying fat:
• When replacing old fat with fresh, first melt the
fresh blocks of fat slowly, under low heat, in a
separate pan. Then carefully pour the molten fat
into the deep fryer. When this has been done,
insert the power plug into a socket and switch
the deep fryer on.
• After use, store the deep fryer with the solidified
fat at room temperatures.
Should the fat become too cold, it could cause
splattering on remelting! To avoid this, poke a few
holes into the solidified fat with a wooden or plastic
spatula. Ensure that no damage is caused to the
heating element.
• To melt the fat, switch the appliance on with the
On/Off switch 0 and then adjust the temperature
regulator 8 to 130˚C. The control lamp 9 starts
to glow.
• Wait until all of the fat has melted. First then set
the desired frying temperature.
