Special Safety Instructions
for this Device
WARNING:
• Never add water to the oil!
• Oils and fats may burn when overheated. Please be
careful! Do not forget to switch the device off after
use! First turn the thermostat to the lowest position
and then remove the mains plug.
CAUTION:
OVERHEATING OF THE HEATING ElEMENT
Please note this important information if you would
like to use fat in the deep fat fryer!
The fat has to be melted slowly so that it can enclose
the heating element.
When fat is placed in the deep fat fryer for the first
time or melted again, there is a danger of overhea-
ting if the selected temperature is too high!
Placing fat in the deep fat fryer for the first time
• Liquefy the fat beforehand in a separate vessel.
WARNING:
Do not heat the fat above 50°C in order to prevent
injury when transferring it from the vessel to the
deep fat fryer.
• Transfer the liquefied fat to the frying fat contai-
ner.
• Once the required oil level has been reached you
can set the desired temperature on the thermostat.
Reheating hardened fat in the deep fat fryer
If the fat in the deep fat fryer has become hard, it
is difficult to know how much it has already melted
down at the heating element.
• Turn the thermostat slowly up until the control
lamp shows that the heating is working.
STOP! Do not turn any further! The heating will
now slowly heat up the fat.
• A short time later the heating switches off again.
• Turn the heating on again by readjusting the ther-
mostat.
• Repeat the process until the fat has melted.
