Electric Fryer
F17
Frying
1. Put the food to be fried into the basket, without overfilling
(max. 1 kg. of fresh potatoes). Ensure the food is evenly distrib-
uted in the basket.
If cooking food from frozen, make sure very little ice crystals
are included (see frying frozen food, page 10).
2. Put the basket into the fryer bowl in a raised position (fig. 5)
and close the lid by pressing lightly down upon it until the
hooks click. Always close the lid before lowering the basket to
avoid hot oil from splashing out.
3. Set thermostat knob to the required temperature (fig. 6).
When the temperature set has been reached, the indicator
light will switch off.
4. As soon as the indicator light switches off, very slowly immerse
the basket into the oil.
•
It is completely normal for a considerable amount of hot steam
to be released from the filter cover immediately after the bas-
ket is immersed.
•
At the start of cooking, immediately after the food has been
immersed in the oil, the internal wall of the viewing window
(where present) will steam up, before clearing.
•
It is normal for drops of condensation to form around the bas-
ket handle while the appliance is working.
•
Never touch the viewing window (where present) when frying
as it becomes very hot.
