2. Safety
2.1 Using the appliance safely
Being an appliance designed for professional use only, it should be operated by qualified
personnel exclusively. Never leave the deep fat fryer unattended while in operation.
Cooking with old and filthy oil is a safety risk; make sure that you always use fresh or
purified oil.
Foodstuffs to be fried should always be as dry as possible. Cooking foodstuffs with high
moisture content causes oil to foam and overflow.
Do not try to fry too much food at the same time. The maximum recommended quantity
to be fried at the same time is about half of the basket capacity.
If oil level approaches the minimum level line marked on the side panel of the tank, pour
some more oil into the tank until you reach the maximum level. If you should need to add
oil while the appliance is in operation, use cold oil and pour it into the tank very carefully.
In this way, you will prevent oil from splashing (fire hazard). In any case, do not mix large
amounts of fresh and old oil or fat because fresh oil will spoil much faster when in contact
with old oil.
Too little oil in the tank may result in overheating.
Never leave the deep fat fryer on without oil in the tank! Should this happen accidentally,
the safety thermostat will turn off the appliance.
Do not move the appliance while hot.
IF OIL SHOULD CATCH FIRE, NEVER USE WATER TO EXTINGUISH IT.
2.2 Safety instructions in the event of a fault
Always keep the lid close at hand, in an easily accessible place.
Should oil catch fire, use the lid as first extinguishing means and then smother the fire
with a fire blanket.
In the event of a fault or malfunction, switch off the appliance and call the service.
If an emergency occours, turn off the gas shut off valve on the gas supply line.
