• Removethebasketbypullingitupwards(g.3).
• Pourintothecontainer1.2litresofoil(or1kg.offat).
WARNING:Thelevelmustalwaysbebetweenthemaximumand
minimum levels indicated.
Never use the deep fryer when the oil is below the “min” level as it
could cause the thermal safety device to come into operation; to
replace it you need to contact one of our service centres.
Best results are obtained by using a good peanut oil. Avoid mixing
dierent types of oil. If you use lumps of solid fat, cut them into
small pieces so that the deep fryer does not heat up in the rst few
minutes without a covering of fat. The temperature must be set to
150°C until the fat has melted completely. The required tempera-
ture can then be set.
STARTING TO FRY
1. Put the food which is to be fried into the basket, without ever
overlling it (max. 1 kg. of fresh potatoes).
In order to obtain a more even frying, we recommend con-
centrating the food especially around the perimeter of the
basket., leaving the central part more sparingly lled.
2. Put the basket into the boiler pan in a raised position (g.3)
and close the lid by pressing lightly down upon it until the
hooks click. Always close the lid before lowering the basket in
order to avoid hot oil from splashing out.
3. Plug into the mains socket and set thermostat knob “N” to the
requiredtemperature(g.4).Whenthetemperaturesethas
been reached, signal lamp “M” will go o.
4. As soon as the signal lamp goes o, immerse the basket in the
oil, lowering the handle slowly after sliding the handle’s “B”
slider back.

AFTER FRYING
Whenthecookingtimerunsoutraisethebasketandcheckifthe
food has reached the required golden colour. In the models tted
with a viewing window this check can be carried out by looking
through the window without opening the lid.
If cooking is complete, turn o the appliance by turning the ther-
mostat knob to the “O” position until the internal switch clicks.
Drain excess oil by leaving the basket inside the deep fryer for a
while in the high position.
FILTERING THE OIL OR FAT
Werecommendthatyoucarryoutthisprocedureeachtimeyou
have nished frying as, especially when the food has been breaded
or oured, the food particles tend to burn if they remain in the li-
quid thus causing much quicker deterioration in the oil or fat.
Check that the oil is cool enough (waiting about 2 hours).
1. Remove the lid (g. 6) and the removable pan “P”, holding it
bythehandle“Q”(g.7).Emptythepan(g.8).
2. Remove any residues from the pan using a sponge or ab-
sorbent paper. Put the removable pan “P” back into the pan
