Electromagnetic Fields (Emf); Preparing For Use - Philips HD6161/00 Manual De Instrucciones

caution
- Always return the appliance to a service centre authorised by Philips for examination or repair.
Do not attempt to repair the appliance yourself, otherwise the guarantee becomes invalid.
- Place the appliance on a horizontal, even and stable surface.
- Do not touch the viewing window, as it becomes hot during frying.
- This appliance is intended for household use only. If the appliance is used improperly or for
professional or semi-professional purposes or if it is not used according to the instructions in the
user manual, the guarantee becomes invalid and Philips refuses any liability for damage caused.
- Fry food golden-yellow instead of dark or brown and remove burnt remnants. Do not fry
starchy foods, especially potato and cereal products, at a temperature above 175°C (to minimise
the production of acrylamide).
- Prevent water and/or ice from coming into contact with oil or fat, as this causes heavy spattering
or violent bubbling of the oil or fat. To achieve this, remove all excess ice from frozen ingredients
before you fry them and dry ingredients thoroughly before you fry them. Do not overfill the
basket. After cleaning, dry all parts thoroughly before you put oil or fat in the fryer.
- Do not fry Asian rice cakes (or similar types of food) in this appliance. This might cause heavy
spattering or violent bubbling of the oil or fat.
- Make sure the fryer is always filled with oil or fat to a level between the 'MIN' and 'MAX'
indications on the inside of the inner bowl to prevent either overflowing or overheating.
- Do not switch on the appliance before you have filled it with oil or fat, as this can damage
the appliance.

Electromagnetic fields (EMF)

This Philips appliance complies with all standards regarding electromagnetic fields (EMF). If handled
properly and according to the instructions in this user manual, the appliance is safe to use based on
scientific evidence available today.

preparing for use

1 Clean the appliance before you use it for the first time (see chapter 'Cleaning').
2 Place the control panel onto the housing ('click'). (Fig. 2)
If the control panel is not correctly placed, the safety switch makes it impossible to operate
the fryer.
3 Remove the lid (Fig. 3).
4 Consult the oil/fat table to determine how much oil or fat you have to put in the
fryer (Fig. 4).
5 Fill the fryer with oil, liquid frying fat or melted solid fat to a level between the 'MIN' and
'MAX' indications and put the lid on the fryer.
Do not switch on the appliance before you have filled it with oil or fat.
oil and fat
Never mix different types of oil or fat and never add fresh oil or fat to used oil or fat.
- We advise you to use frying oil or liquid frying fat. Preferably use vegetable oil or fat that is rich
in unsaturated fats (e.g. linoleic acid), such as soy oil, peanut oil, maize oil or sunflower oil.
- Only use types of oil or fat that are suitable for deep frying and that contain an antifoam agent.
You can find this information on the package or label of the oil or fat.
- Because oil and fat lose their favourable properties rather quickly, it is important that you
change the oil or fat regularly (after 10-12 times).
- Always change the oil or fat if it starts to foam when it is heated, if it has a strong smell or taste
or if it turns dark and/or syrupy.
