Filling with oil or fat

to the mains, from the cable compartment (fig. 2).

• If oil is used, pour it into the bowl. (fig. 3).

Warning:The level must always be between the maxi­mum and minimum levels indicated.Never exceed max

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 quality oil. Avoid
mixing different types of oil. If you use lumps of solid fat, cut
them into small pieces and melt them in another container,
then pour the liquefied fat into the deep fryer bowl. Never
melt the fat in the basket or on the deep fryer heating element
