THIS PRODUCT IS INTENDED FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

WARNINGS
• Turn the deep fryer on only after filling it with oil or fat. Operating the appliance without oil or fat causes seri-
ous damage.
• If heated empty, a thermal cut-out device trips and shuts the appliance down.
• Connect the cable to an outlet rated at about 120 V.
• The appliance is fitted with a polarized safety plug (a plug with one blade larger than the other), to reduce the risk
of electric shock, 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. 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.
• 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.
•
The manufacturer declares that the product should not be immersed in water, neither placed under a tap for cleaning.
• The vessel should be cleaned with a rag soaked with hot water and /or paper towels.
Do not use extension cords
The appliance is fitted with a short power cord to avoid the risks associated with twisting of the cord.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
IF THE DEEP FRYER HAS A CORD WITH MAGNETIC CONNECTOR
First, connect the magnetic connector to the appliance
as shown in figure 17, making sure the protruding part
of the connector (X) is correctly inserted into the corresponding outlet on the appliance. Then plug the cord
into the outlet.
Warning
Never leave the appliance plugged into the outlet if the
magnetic connector is not fitted to the deep fryer, figu-
re 18. If the magnetic connector does not remain in
place, check that it has been inserted correctly, (see
figure 17). 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. Only use a
type TA-35PA or LT-512 cord set supplied by De'Longhi authorised service centres.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARD
A DEEP FRYER FALLING FROM A HIGH PLACE MAY
CAUSE SERIOUS BURNS. NEVER LEAVE THE CORD
HANGING FROM THE EDGE OF THE SURFACE THE
DEEP FRYER IS RESTING ON WHERE IT COULD BE
GRASPED BY A CHILD OR GET IN THE WAY OF THE
USER. DO NOT USE EXTENSION CORDS.
KEEP OUT OF REACH OF CHILDREN

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Filling with oil or fat
• Raise the basket (F) to the highest position by pulling the special “A” handle upwards (fig.1).
The lid should ALWAYS be closed when the basket
is raised and lowered.
• Open lid “C” by pressing button “P” (fig.2).
• Remove the basket by pulling it upwards (fig.3).
• Pour into the container 1.2 litres of oil (or 1 kg. of
fat).
WARNING: The level must always be between the
maximum and minimum levels indicated.
Never use the deep fryer when the oil is below the
“min” level as it could cause the thermal safety device to come into operation; to replace it you need to
contact one of our service centres.
Best results are obtained by using a good peanut oil.
Avoid mixing different types of oil. If you use lumps of
solid fat, cut them into small pieces so that the deep
fryer does not heat up in the first few minutes without a
covering of fat. The temperature must be set to
until the fat has melted completely. The required temperature can then be set.
STARTING TO FRY
1. Put the food which is to be fried into the basket,
without ever overfilling it (max. 1 kg. of fresh potatoes).
In order to obtain a more even frying, we recommend concentrating the food especially around the
perimeter of the basket., leaving the central part
more sparingly filled.
2. Put the basket into the boiler pan in a raised position (fig.3) and close the lid by pressing lightly
down upon it until the hooks click. Always close the
300°F
7
lid before lowering the basket in order to avoid hot
oil from splashing out.
3. Plug into the mains socket and set thermostat knob
“N” to the required temperature (fig.4). When the
temperature set has been reached, signal lamp “M”
will go off.
4. As soon as the signal lamp goes off, immerse the
basket in the oil, lowering the handle slowly after
sliding the handle’s “B” slider back.
• It is completely normal for a considerable amount of
very hot steam to pour out of filter cover “E” immediately after this.
• At the start of cooking, immediately after the food
has been immersed in the oil, the internal wall of
viewing window “D” will steam up, before progressively clearing.
• It is normal for drops of condensation to form
around the basket handle while the appliance is
working.
MODELS WITH ELECTRONIC MINUTE TIMER
1 Set the cooking time by pressing the "R" button. The
display "Q" will show the minutes set.
2 The numbers will straight away begin to flash. This
shows that the cooking time has begun. The last
minute is displayed in seconds.
3 If an error is made, the new cooking time can be set
by holding the button down for more than 2 seconds. The display will reset and the process can
then be repeated from point 1.
4 The minute timer will indicate the end of the cook-
ing time with two series of beeps about 20 seconds
apart. To turn the acoustic signal off, press the
minute timer button "R".
IMPORTANT: the minute timer does not turn the appliance off.
Replacing the minute timer battery (fig. 16)
• Remove the minute timer from its housing by prising
it from the lower side (see fig. 16A).
• Turn the battery cover on the back of the battery
anticlockwise (fig. 16B) until it comes free.
• Replace the battery with another of the same type
(L1131).
When replacing or disposing of the appliance, the battery must be removed and disposed of according to current legislation as it represents a hazard to the environment.
AFTER FRYING
When the cooking time runs out raise the basket and
check if the food has reached the required golden
colour. In the models fitted with a viewing window this
check can be carried out by looking through the window without opening the lid. If cooking is complete, turn
off the appliance by unpluging from the outlet.
Drain excess oil by leaving the basket inside the deep
fryer for a while in the high position.
FILTERING THE OIL OR FAT
We recommend that you carry out this procedure each
time you have finished frying as, especially when the
food has been breaded or floured, the food particles
tend to burn if they remain in the liquid thus causing
much quicker deterioration in the oil or fat.
Check that the oil is cool enough (waiting about 2 hours).
Models with drainage pipe
Bring the front part of the deep fryer to the edge of
the work surface, taking care that the feet (K) never
protrude over the edge (fig. 5).
1. Open the lid of the deep fryer and remove the
basket (fig. 3).
2. Open inspection door “O” as shown in fig. 6.
3. Remove drainage pipe “L”.
4. Remove plug “J” while at the same time squeezing
the pipe with two fingers to prevent the oil or fat
from leaking out before the pipe has been directed
into a container (fig. 7).
5. Allow the oil or fat to drip into a container (fig. 8).
6. Remove any deposits from the tank using a sponge
or absorbent paper.
7. At the end of the procedure fit the plug back onto
the drainage pipe and reposition it in its compartment.
8. Put the basket back in the high position and place
one of the filters (optional) at the bottom of the
basket (fig. 9). You can obtain the filters from your
retailer or one of our service centres.
9. Next pour the oil or fat very slowly into the deep
fryer so that it does not spill out of the filter (fig. 10).
10. The oil which has been filtered in this way can be preserved inside the deep fryer. However, if a long time
elapses before it is next used, it is advisable to preserve the oil in a closed container in order to stop it deteriorating. It is good practice to keep oil used for frying
fish separate from that used for frying other food.
If fat is used, be careful not to let it cool down too
much or it will solidify.
