- Fill the frying pan with oil, liquid fat or melted

When using new solid frying fat:
- Melt the piece(s) of
new solid frying fat in
a separate pan on a
low fire (fig. 16):
2 1 ⁄ kg for type
2
HD 4209;
4 kg for type
HD 4210.
Please note: Always
keep your eye on this
pan. Keep children away from it.
- Put out the fire below the pan as soon as the fat
has melted.

When melting used solid frying fat which has
curdled in the fryer:
17
- Carefully make some holes in the fat (fig. 17).
Avoid damaging the heating element when
doing so!
- Put the lid on the fryer.
- Switch the fryer on, selecting position 160 °C
(fig. 18).
Leave the lid on the fryer while the fat is melting
to prevent spattering.
- You can switch to a higher temperature as soon
as all the fat has melted.
• Only use the described melting procedure!
Otherwise there is a risk of warm melted fat
suddenly spouting from below through the still
solid top layer of fat.
• Store the fryer containing solidified fat at room
temperature. If the fat is very cold there is a
greater risk of spattering.
19
- Pull out the mains cord completely (fig. 19).
• Ensure that the mains cord will not touch hot
surfaces and that it does not hang over the
worktop edge.
- Insert the mains plug into the wall socket.
- Set the temperature knob to the position which
is most appropriate for the kind of food to be
fried (fig. 20). Refer to the table.
- After the pilot lamp has extinguished for the
second time (after 10-15 minutes) the oil/fat is
at the correct temperature.
