with the lid on.
- Remove the basket and attach the handle by
pivoting until the rods engage in the housing.
- The pilot light (E) comes on.
- Select the desired frying temperature using the
thermostat control. The indicator light will turn
red, indicating that the oil is being heated.
- Prepare the food to be fried and place it in the
basket, making sure that it does not rise above
¾ of its capacity. Allow the food to drain before
placing it in the basket.
- Frozen food must be allowed for thaw before-
hand. The placing of frozen food or food with high
water content in the basket may cause the oil to
suddenly spit after a few seconds.
- Wait until the pilot light (10) has gone out which
will indicate that the appliance has reached an
adequate temperature.
- Slowly place the basket in the bowl to avoid
overflowing and splashing.
- When the food has been fried sufficiently, lift the
basket and position it in the support in order to
allow the excess oil to drain from the food.
- Empty the basket.
- Change the oil approximately every 15 or 20
frying operations, or every 5 – 6 months if not
used frequently.
- In order to minimize the generation of acryla-
mide during the frying process, avoid reaching
dark brown colours on the fried food, remove any
burnt leftovers from the oil container, food rich in
scratch (such as potatoes or corns) should not be
fried at temperatures lower than 170ºC.
Oil draning position

Practical recommendations:
- Fry a few pieces of bread to remove the smell
of used oil.
- For food with a high water content, it is better
and quicker to fry in two lots with less food than
in just one. This will reduce the risk of splashes
and spillage.
- This will reduce the risk of splashes and spilla-
ge. This system consists of first frying the food
until it is reasonably well done and then frying
again using very hot oil to brown the food.
- Olive oil with a minimum acidity level is recom-
mendable for frying.
- Do not mix different oils.
- Wash potatoes before frying to stop them from
sticking.

mechanism will be activated and the applian-
