If you use lumps of solid fat, cut theminto small pieces so that the deep fryer does not heat up in thefirst few minutes without a covering of fat. The temperaturemust be set to 150°C / 300°F until the fat has melted complete-ly. The required temperature can then be set.STARTING TO FRY1.

Put the basket into the boiler pan in a raised position(fig.3) and close the lid by pressing lightly down upon ituntil the hooks click. always close the lid before loweringthe basket in order to avoid hot oil from splashing out.3. Plug into the mains socket and set thermostat knob “N” tothe required temperature (fig.4). When the temperatureset has been reached, signal lamp “M” will go off.4. as soon as the signal lamp goes off, immerse the basket inthe oil, lowering the handle slowly after sliding the han-dle’s “B” slider back.• It is completely normal for a considerable amount of very
