Operating instructions
Useful hints for use
•
Oil and fat must be heatable to very high temperatures.
Use high quality frying oil or frying grease. Do not use mar-
garine, olive oil or butter: they are not fit for frying, because
they start to smoke already at low temperatures.
•
We recommend the use of liquid frying oil.
CAUTION:
... if you would like to use fat!
•
If you use fat, please divide it up into small pieces. Place
it onto the bottom of the frying oil pot.
Never put the fat into the frying basket!
•
•
Set the temperature regulator to a low temperature and
slowly add the pieces.
•
Once the fat has melted and the required oil level has
been reached, you can set the desired temperature on
the temperature control. Do not exceed the MAX mark!
CAUTION:
Heavy build up of foam!
•
Never mix oils and fats. The liquid may overflow.
•
Rub wet food dry with a cloth. Damp food causes a
heavy build up of foam which is serious cases may cause
the oil/fat to overflow.
WARNING:
Contaminated oil/fat can be highly inflammable!
•
Always remove any food which may remain in the oil/fat.
•
Replace the oil/fat regularly.
•
Avoid splattering. Fill the basket outside the deep fryer.
•
Only fry inside the frying basket.
•
Choose the right frying temperature and check the condi-
tions of the food to be fried. A rule of thumb is that pre-fried
foods require a higher temperature than raw foods.
•
When frying dough-like foods scrape off the excess dough
and put the pieces carefully into the oil.
•
The deep fat frying basket must not be more than 2/3 full.
Do not overfill the frying basket.
•
Keep the lid closed during use.
•
The frying times on the front of the deep fryer are guide-
lines. Use the times on the food packaging or in your
recipe.
Tips for reducing acrylic amide concentration
•
Acrylic amide is a chemical compound. It comes from the
bronzing process (deep-frying, baking, frying, roasting and
grilling) in foodstuffs high in carbohydrates (starch and
sugar) like, for example, potato and cereal products.
•
It is suspected that acrylic amide damages genetic make-
up and causes cancer. The actual risk to humans is not
currently known.
•
We recommend that you do not exceed 170 °C when
deep-frying.
•
Furthermore we recommend that you keep the frying time
as short as possible and fry food to a maximum gold yellow
colour.
•
Thicker chips or pieces of potato are less affected as the
acrylic amide is mainly in the outer layer.
•
If you make chips from fresh potatoes, you can soak the
peeled and chopped pieces of potato for an hour before-
hand. This removes some of the sugars (primary substance
for acrylic amide) from the outer layers.
