Switching on

• Open the appliance cover. Fit the frying basket

holder into the two clips on the edge of the basin
and secure the holder in the clamp on the cover. 

• Fill the frying basin either with 3 - 3.5 l of heat-

resistant oil (e.g. peanut oil, palm oil or special
deep frying oil) or 2.5 - 3 kg of heat-resistant fat
(e.g. coconut fat, lard or special frying fat). Cut the
fat into approx. 250 g pieces if necessary and 
place these evenly in the frying basin. The fat
should be room or fridge temperature, but on no
account frozen.

• Press down the left control knob and turn it to the

oil or fat setting required. 

• Press down the right control knob and turn it to the

required temperature between 270 and 380 °F. 

• The luminous disc behind the control knob 

flashes, while the appliance is heating up. When
the required temperature is reached, the luminous
disc lights constantly.  

• When using fat, although the required tempera-

ture has been reached, some fat may remain hard
in the cold oil zone. This does not affect the frying
result. You can start frying, when the luminous disc
behind the right control knob lights constantly. 

• Fill the frying basket at the side of the appliance

and insert the basket into the hot oil.

• When the food is ready (see settings table), take

out the deep frying basket, shake it lightly and
hang it on the frying basket holder. This will make
sure that the oil can drip off faster. Use the upper
three runs of the frying basket holder. When using
two frying baskets simultaneously, hang them side
by side (only the two top runs) or one above the
other onto the frying basket holder.   

Important: Never switch on the deep fryer
empty. 

The oil/fat level in the frying basin should

always be between the two marking lines.
