KEEP THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED FOR DOMESTIC USE ONLY.
WARNINGS
•Turn the deep fryer on only after filling it with oil or fat. Operating the appliance without oil or fat causes serious damage.
•If heated empty, a thermal cut-out device trips and shuts the appliance down.
•Connect the cable to a soutlet rated at about 120 V.
•If the appliance is fitted with a polarized safety plug (a plug with one blade larger than the others), it can be inserted into the outlet in one direction only. This is a safety feature.
If you cannot fully insert the plug into the outlet, try the other way round. If the plug is not suitable for the socket, have the obsolete outlet replaced by a qualified electrician.
Do not tamper with the polarized plug protection system.
•Clean the bowl, basket and cover of the appliance thoroughly with hot water and mild detergent before using for the first time. Dry thoroughly.
•If oil leaks from the appliance, contact an authorized technical service center or personnel.
•To guarantee safe use, do not attempt to insert excessively bulky food or utensils into the deep fryer.
•Do not allow the appliance to be used by children without supervision.
•Never allow children to play with the appliance.
•To avoid burns, do not touch metal parts as these could become extremely hot. Use oven mitts.
•Do not open the oil drain tap (if present) when the oil is still hot.
•The appliance may give off a "new" smell the first time you use it. This is completely normal. Ventilate the room.
•When the appliance is not in use and before cleaning, unplug from the outlet.
Do not use extension cords
The appliance is fitted with a short power cord to avoid the risks associated with twisting of the cord.
IF THE DEEP FRYER HAS A CORD WITH MAGNETIC CONNECTOR
First, connect the magnetic connector to the appliance as shown in figure 4B, making sure the projecting part of the connector (X) is correctly inserted into the corresponding outlet on the appliance. Then plug the ccord into the outlet.
Important safeguard
Never leave the appliance plugged into the outlet if the magnetic connector is not connected to the deep fryer, figure 3.
If the magnetic connector comes out of the outlet, make sure it is correctly inserted (see figure 4B). If the problem persists, contact an authorized service center. When the appliance is in operation, always leave free space around the magnetic connector to prevent it from becoming detached.
Use type TA-35PA cords provided by a De'Longhi authorized service center only.

THERMAL CUT-OUT DEVICE
The appliance is fitted with a thermal cut-out device which interrupts heating in the event of incorrect use or faulty operation. Once the appliance has cooled down, use a toothpick to delicately press the thermal cutout device reset button (Z) (see fig. 1). If the appliance is still not operational, contact a service center authorized by the manufacturer.
INSTRUCTIONS
Before using the deep fryer for the first time, clean the basket, bowl and cover thoroughly with hot water and detergent. The control unit with power cord and heating element can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Check that water does not enter into the control unit and that there is no water left in the bottom of the removable bowl. Dry all parts thoroughly.
Make sure the control unit is correctly fastened to the deep fryer body. The safety micro-switch (G) will prevent the appliance from operating unless the control unit is correctly positioned in the guides (N).
The deep fryer is now ready for use.
FILLING WITH OIL OR FAT
•Remove the cover (O), lifting it by the handle. Turn the basket handle until it locks into place (pos. 2, fig. 2). Remove the basket (S) by pulling upwards.
•From the cord storage (V), pull out the length of cord required to connect the appliance to the outlet (see
6
fig. 4A). “320°f” will appear on the display (A) and the deep fryer emits a beep when plugged into the outlet.
If the deep fryer has a cord with magnetic connector:
First, connect the magnetic connector to the appliance (fig. 4B) making sure the projecting part of the connector (X) is facing downwards. Then plug the cord into the outlet.
•If oil is used, pour it into the bowl (R) until it reaches the maximum level indicated (see fig. 5). Never exceed this limit as oil might overflow from the bowl.
The level of oil should always be between the maximum and minimum marks (H). For best results, use good quality peanut oil.
•If lumps of fat are used, cut the lumps into pieces and melt them in another container, then pour the melted fat into the deep fryer bowl. Never melt the fat in the basket or on the deep fryer heating element (see Fig. 6).
•Replace the cover (O).
•If traces of food are left in the oil, these should be removed before heating to prolong the life of the oil.
PREHEATING
Place the food to be fried in the basket (S), without overfilling (max. 1.3 kg). (3lb) of fresh potatoes. Make sure the handle of the basket is correctly positioned (position 2, fig. 2).
PROGRAMMING THE DEEP FRYER
Use the “-/+” buttons (B) to set the temperature from 122°F to 347°F. Pressing the button once increases or decreases the temperature by 9°F (5°C).
Use the MODE (C) button to access the temperature or time settings.
Use the “-/+” buttons (B) to adjust cooking time from 0 to 60 minutes.
Pressing the button once increases or decreases time by 1 minute.
After setting the temperature and time, press the START/STOP button (D) (if the time has not been set, the deep fryer will not begin the heating process). The deep fryer begins the heating process. The red light (E) comes on. During this process, you can still modify temperature and cooking time using the “-/+” buttons (B) and the MODE (C) button to modify the selection.
When the appliance reaches the set temperature, the green light (F) comes on and the deep fryer emits two “beeps”.
7
STARTING FRYING
•As soon as the green indicator light (F) comes on, lower the basket (M) into the oil very slowly to avoid the hot oil splashing or overflowing.
•Close the cover.
•Press the START/STOP button (D). The display (A) shows a countdown of the remaining cooking time. During this process, you can still modify temperature and cooking time using the “-/+” buttons (B) and the MODE (C) button.
At the end of the countdown the deep fryer emits three beeps. Lights (E) and (F) go off. The temperature goes back to 320°F. If the ON/OFF button (D) is not pressed, the appliance does not begin the countdown and after 30 minutes the preset settings are restored.
•A significant amount of steam will be released. This is completely normal.
•It is normal for steam to be given off from the cover and condensation to drip from the edge of the cover.
•To avoid burns, never put your hands above the cover filter or deep fryer itself while in use. Before opening the cover, lift it slightly to allow steam to escape from one side.
END OF FRYING
•At the end of the cooking time, the deep fryer emits three “beeps”. Lift the basket (S) and check that the food has been cooked to the required colour.
•Unplug from the outlet:
•Drain excess oil by hooking the basket (S) to the support (I) on the bowl.
•Note: If cooking requires two phases or more than one cooking cycle is to be performed, at the end of the first phase, hook the basket (S) to the support on the bowl (I) and wait for the light to go out. Then slowly lower the basket (S) into the oil again.
COOKING TIPS
HOW LONG THE OIL OR FAT LASTS
The level of oil or fat must never fall below the minimum level. Every now and then it must be completely changed.
The life of the oil or fat depends on what foods are being fried. Food coated in breadcrumbs, for example, dirties the oil more than simple frying. As with any deep fryer, the oil deteriorates after being heated a number of times! Even if used correctly, it should therefore be completely changed on a regular basis.
CORRECT FRYING
The recommended temperature should be followed for all recipes. If the temperature is too low, the oil will be absorbed. If the temperature is too high, a crust will form immediately and the inside of the food will not be cooked. The food being fried must only be immersed in the oil when the light (F) comes on to indicate that the oil has reached the correct temperature. Never overfill the basket as this may cause a sudden drop in the temperature of the oil and thus greasier and less uniform frying. Check that the food is cut into thin, even pieces. If the food is too thick, it will not be well cooked inside, despite its appearance. Even pieces on the other hand will all be perfectly cooked at the same time. Dry the food thoroughly before immersing it in the oil or fat to avoid the oil spitting. Wet food will also be less crisp after cooking (especially potatoes). Foods with a high water content (fish, meat, vegetables) should be breaded before frying, making sure to remove excess flour or breadcrumbs before immersing the food in the oil.

FRYING FROZEN FOOD
Frozen foods are very cold. They therefore lower the temperature of the liquid used for cooking. For best results, never exceed the maximum recommended quantity of food when frying. Frozen foods are often covered with a layer of ice. This should be removed before cooking. Lower the basket into the oil very slowly to prevent the oil from boiling over.
The cooking times are approximate and must be adjusted according to the initial temperature of the food being fried and the temperatures indicated on the packaging of the food.

CLEANING
Before cleaning, make sure the appliance is unplugged from the outlet.
Never immerse the deep fryer in water and never place it under running tap water (see Fig. 7). If water leaks into the control unit it could cause electric shock.
Check that the oil has cooled down, then remove the control unit and drain the oil. Remove the deposits from the bowl using a sponge or absorbent paper.
Except for the control unit, power cord and heating element, all other parts can be cleaned with hot water and mild detergent (see Fig. 8).
To preserve the efficiency of the filter (Q) (if present), wash thoroughly. To avoid damaging the deep fryer, never use abrasive sponges.
When you have finished, dry all parts thoroughly to prevent splashes of hot oil when you use the appliance.
