• If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service agent or similarly
qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.
• The appliance is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote-con-
trol system.
DEEP FRYING
USING THE APPLIANCE
• Clean the appliance thoroughly before use in hot water with a squirt of detergent.
Make sure the electrical parts do not come into contact with water.
• Rinse with clean water and dry the appliance carefully.
• Fill the appliance with fat or vegetable oil. If you are using solid fat, first cut this into pieces and then
set the thermostat button to 90°C until the fat has melted completely.
• The oil level should always be between the upper and lower level indicators (max. 1.1 l, min. 0.8 l).
• Set the thermostat button to the desired temperature. Consult the frying chart with temperatures.
• The light will go out when the desired temperature has been reached.
• When the light goes out, first immerse the empty basket in the oil. This will help to prevent the food
from sticking.
• Place the food to be fried into the basket. For the best 740 result, the food should be dry when put in
the basket.
• Use the removable handle to place the basket into the deep fryer, then remove the handle from the
basket. ATTENTION: Check that the handle is properly attached to the basket so that the basket does
not fall off when the chips are shaken.
• Immerse the basket slowly to prevent violent bubbling.
• Raise the basket at the end of the frying time and hang it on the hook in the pan to allow the oil to
drain out.
• Unplug the appliance.
• Rinse the handle and the basket after use and dry them thoroughly.
• When the deep-fryer has cooled down properly, you can replace the basket and put the appliance
away. Store your deep-fryer with the cover on in a dark, dry place. The oil and the basket can remain
in the deep-fryer.
DEEP FRYING TIPS
• For better results, use the recommended oil or fat (see chart hereafter). It is not a good idea to mix
together several different sorts of oil.
• Replace the oil or fat regularly, especially if it turns dark or dirty or if it starts to foam excessively. The
appliance has a pouring spout so that the oil can be poured out easily. Clean the pan each time it is
emptied.
• The quality of the oil or fat diminishes each time it is heated for a long period of time. Switch off the
deep-fryer after use each time.
• In order to achieve good results, do not fry large quantities in one go.
- Fry a maximum of 200 grams of chips per litre of oil.
- In the case of frozen products, fry a maximum of 100 grams as the oil cools off considerably.
- Shake frozen products above the sink to get rid of surplus ice.
- When making chips from fresh potatoes, dry the chips after washing to prevent water from getting
into the oil.
- Fry the chips in two stages; the first stage (pre-fry) for 5 to 10 minutes at 170°C and the second
stage (final-fry) for 2 to 4 minutes at 190°C. Allow to drain thoroughly before serving.
• Do not fry too much food in one go. Only cover the bottom of the basket so that the temperature of the
oil does not drop. This would cause the food to absorb too much oil.
• Adhere to the prescribed deep-frying time.
• Do not put salt on the food before or during frying, but wait until the food has been removed from the
basket. Salt and water will spoil the oil.
• Let the food drain thoroughly and wipe it with kitchen paper to remove any surplus fat. Eat the food
straight away. If you have to keep the food warm for a while, do this in the oven and not in a covered
dish, as condensation makes the food soggy.
