Safety
Thermal safety cut-out
The appliance has been equipped with a thermal
safety cut-out that switches the appliance off if
it overheats. This may happen if there is no oil
or fat or not enough oil or fat in the fryer or if
blocks of solid fat are being melted in the fryer,
which will prevent the heating element from
being able to give off the heat produced quickly
enough.
Take the following measures when the thermal
safety cut-out has switched the appliance off:
- Let the oil or fat cool down;
- Carefully press the 'reset' button at the back
of the control panel with a small screwdriver
(fig. 2).
Now the appliance is ready to be used again.
(fig. 1) Safety switch
The safety switch in the control panel ensures
that the heating element can only be switched
on if the control panel has been inserted
correctly ('Click') (fig. 3).
Cool zone
During frying, loose food particles collect on
the bottom of the inner pot. As the heating
element has been placed some distance above
the bottom of the inner pot and primarily heats
the oil or fat above it, the oil or fat between
the bottom of the inner pot and the heating
element remains relatively cool (cool zone).
This prevents the food particles that end up in
this zone from burning, increasing the number
of times you can re-use the oil or fat.
Using solid fat
We advise you to use frying oil or liquid frying
fat in this appliance. You can also use solid
frying fat, but if you do, you have to take the
following precautions to prevent spattering of
fat and overheating of the appliance:
• Use 2 kg of fat for type HD 6130 and 3 kg for
type HD 6132.
- If you want to use new blocks of fat, melt
them slowly over a low heat in a normal pan.
- Pour the melted fat carefully into the fryer.
- Put the plug in the wall socket and switch the
fryer on (see 'Frying').
• Store the fryer with the resolidified fat still in
it at room temperature. If the fat gets very
cold, it may start spattering when melted.
Punch some holes into the resolidified fat with
a fork to prevent this (fig. 4). Be careful not to
damage the heating element while doing so.
Before frying
- Clean the separate parts of the fryer
thoroughly before you use the fryer for the
first time (see 'Cleaning').
- Put the appliance on a horizontal, even and
stable surface.
• If you want to place the fryer on top of the
