return the thermostat to '0'. Repeat this
operation at intervals of various minutes,
until the fat has melted completely. This
will prevent the build up of excessive
heat which may damage the element.
6. BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Remove the basket (3) and place the
handle (2) in its working position (Fig. 2).
To assemble the basket handle:
- Press the two ends and insert them
into the two housings in which they
will turn. See (Fig. 2 a).
- Turn the handle towards the outside
of the basket (Fig. 2 b) by pressing it
against the 'U' shaped fixer until it is
firmly fixed in place. See (Fig. 2 c).
• Remove the control panel and element
and place in a safe, dry place (Fig. 3).
• Remove all packaging material from
inside the pan.
Clean the basket and pan with soapy water.
Rinse and dry well before reassembling
(See the section entitled 'Cleaning').
Warning: Do not submerge the control
panel and element in water.
7. INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
• Place the appliance on a flat, stable,
horizontal surface well away from the
edge, and make sure that the cable is not
hanging over the side of the table or
worksurface and is not touching any hot
surfaces.
• Remove the cable from its housing at the
back of the fryer.
• Remove the lid (1), holding it by the
handle. The lid should not be used
during the frying process; only use the
lid when storing the fryer.
• Before filling the fryer with oil or fat, all the
parts should be assembled and
completely dry.
• Pour oil or fat into the pan up to between
the maximum and minimum level marks
etched on the inside. If using solid fat, melt
it first in a separate pan before pouring into
the fryer (See 'Using with solid fat').

• Do not mix different types of oil or fat. Do
not add new oil or fat to used oil or fat.
• Plug the fryer into the mains.
• Select the required temperature using the
temperature control knob. The pilot light
will come on. When selecting the
temperature, be guided by the information
given on the packaging of the food to be
fried. If no such information is available,
then the table given at the end of these
instructions can be used as a guideline.
Do not exceed the maximum quantities
indicated on the table.
• When the pilot light switches off (10-15
minutes), this indicates that the oil/fat has
reached the selected temperature. The
pilot light will continue to switch on and off
in keeping with the thermostat cycles
throughout the entire cooking period.
If you wish to carry out a number of
continuous frying operations, wait until the
pilot light has switched off before placing
the next item of food in the oil/fat.
• Place the basket with the food slowly into
the oil to prevent any water in the food
from causing the oil to bubble up over the
sides of the pan.
• Keep a close eye on the whole frying
process.
After frying
• Remove the basket from the pan, shake a
little and then hook into the draining
position (Fig. 4). Place the food on a tray
over a piece of absorbent kitchen paper.
While you are doing this, the oil will have
time to reach the right temperature for the
next frying operation (the pilot light will
switch off once again).
• Use a strainer to remove any loose
particles of fried food that may have come
off the main pieces and are floating in the
oil. Leaving them to toast will have a
negative effect on the quality of the oil.
• When you have finished frying, turn the
thermostat switch to the '0' position and
unplug the appliance from the mains. If
the fryer is used often, submerge the
basket in the oil and place the lid over the
top for protection.
• Wait for the oil to cool completely before
disassembling and cleaning the fryer.
