ELECTRICAL CONNECTION (U.K. ONLY)
A) If your appliance comes fitted with a plug, it will incorporate a 13 Amp fuse. If it does not fit your socket, the plug
should be cut off from the mains lead, and on appropriate plug fitted, as below. warning: Very carefully dispose of
the cut off plug after removing the fuse: do not insert in a 13 Amp socket elsewhere in the house as this could cause
a shock hazard. With alternative plugs not incorporating a fuse, the circuit must be protected by a 15 Amp fuse. If the
plug is a moulded-on type, the fuse cover must be re-fitted when changing the fuse using a 13 Amp Asta approved
fuse to BS 1362. In the event of losing the fuse cover, the plug must NOT be used until a replacement fuse cover can
be obtained from your nearest electrical dealer. The colour of the correct replacement fuse cover is that as marked on
the base of the plug.
B) If your appliance is not fitted with a plug, please follow the instructins provided below:
WARNING - THIS APPLIANCE MUST BE EARTHED

THERMAL SAFETY DEVICE
The appliance is fitted with a thermal safety device that
stops the appliance from heating in the event of incorrect use or irregular operation. Once the appliance has
cooled, using a toothpick or similar, delicately press the
safety device reset button “U” marked RESET (see Fig.
1). If the appliance does not start operating again, contact a service centre authorised by the manufacturer.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Before using the deep fryer for the first time, carefully
clean, using warm water and dishwashing detergent,
the basket, the bowl and the cover. The control unit,
power cable and heating element may be cleaned using
a damp cloth. Check that water does not enter into the
control unit and that there is no residual water in the bottom of the removable bowl. Carefully dry all the parts.
Check that the control unit is properly fastened to the
deep fryer body. The safety micro-switch “C” will not
allow the appliance to be operated if the control unit “Z”
is not correctly positioned in the casing “L”.
The deep fryer is now ready for use.
FILLING WITH OIL OR FAT
• Remove the cover "O" by lifting it by the handle. Turn
the folding handle of the basket until it locks into place
(pos. 2, Fig. 2). Remove the basket “Q” by lifting it
upwards.
• Remove the length of cable required to connect the
appliance to the mains, from the cable compartment
“S” (see Fig. 3).
• If oil is used, pour it into the bowl “P” until reaching the
maximum level indicated (see Fig. 4). Never exceed
this limit, as oil may overflow from the container. The
level of oil must always be between the maximum and
minimum limits, “D” (max. 4 lt. - min. 2,850 lt.). 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 liquefied fat into the deep fryer bowl. Never melt the fat in
the basket or on the deep fryer heating element (see
Fig. 5).
• Close the cover “O”.
PREHEATING
• Move the switch “V” to position 1 (see Fig. 6). The
light on the switch will turn on.
• Place the food to be fried in the basket “Q”, without
overfilling (max 1.3 kg of fresh potatoes). Check that
the handle of the basket is correctly positioned (pos.
2 in Fig. 2).
•Move the thermostat knob “A” (see Fig. 7) to the
required temperature (see cooking table).
• When the set temperature is reached, the light “B” will
turn off.
STARTING FRYING
• As soon as the light goes off, place the basket “Q”
into the oil, lowering it very slowly to prevent the hot
oil from spraying or overflowing.
•A significant amount of steam will be released: this is
completely normal.
• It is normal during frying for steam to be released
from the cover and condensate to drip form the edge
of the cover.
• To avoid the risk of burns, never place your hands
above the filter on the cover or above the deep fryer
when frying. Before opening the cover completely,
open it slowly to release the steam from the side.
SETTING THE TIMER (if featured)
Press the button “G”; the display will show “OO”. Keep
the button “G” pressed until the required time is shown
on the display. The set time can range from 01 to 99
minutes.
Once the required time has been set, release the button
“G”. The display will start counting down:
•from 99 to 01 minutes, the display will count down
minute by minute;
•from 01 minutes on, the countdown will be in
seconds.
An audible signal will indicate the end of the set time; to
switch off the audible signal, simply press the timer button “G”.
To change the setting of the timer, reset it by holding the
button “G” for a number of seconds.
The timer signals the end of the set time, but does not
stop the appliance.
To replace the battery, access the inside of the casing
“L”, proceeding as follows:
• Remove all the deep fryer components;
• Unscrew the two screws that support the timer;
• Remove the timer being careful not to let go of the button;
•Turn the battery cover in an anticlockwise direction
until it is released.
• Replace the battery with another of the same type;
To re-insert the timer, perform the same operations in
reverse.
When either replacing or disposing of the appliance,
the battery must be removed and disposed according to
the laws in force, in that it may damage the environment.

END OF FRYING TIME
• At the end of cooking, open the cover slowly to allow
steam to escape from one side. Lift the basket "Q" and
make sure the food has reached the required colour.
• If the food is completely cooked, turn the appliance off
by moving the thermostat knob “A” to the “MIN” position, until it clicks.
•Turn off the switch “V”. The light on the switch will go
off.
• Allow the excess oil to drain by hooking the basket
“Q” onto the support “E” on the bowl.
• N.B. When cooking in two phases or if more food
needs to be cooked, at the end of the first phase hook
the basket ”Q” onto the basket support “E” and wait
for the light to go off again. Then slowly place the
basket “Q” in the oil a second time.
COOKING HINTS:
HOW LONG THE OIL OR FAT LASTS
The level of oil or fat must never fall below the minimum.
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 for any deep fryer,
the oil deteriorates after being heated a number of times!
Therefore, even if used correctly, it should 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 oil has reached the correct temperature, that is
when the light “B” has turned off.
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 sliced into thin, even pieces. If the
slices are too thick, the food will not be well cooked inside, despite its appearance, while even slices will be perfectly cooked at the same time.
Carefully dry the food before immersing it in the oil or
fat, to avoid oil being sprayed; furthermore, wet food
will be less crisp after cooking (especially potatoes).
Foods with a high water content (fish, meat, vegetables)
should be crumbed before frying, making sure the
excess flour or breadcrumbs are removed before immersing the food in the oil. Never fry more than three batches of potatoes consecutively.
FRYING NON-FROZEN FOOD

mind that the cooking times and temperatures are
approximate, and must be adjusted according to the

FRYING FROZEN FOODS
Frozen foods are stored at very low temperatures.
Consequently, they significantly 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
ice should be removed before cooking. Immerse the
basket in 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.
MODELS FITTED WITH OIL DRAIN TAP (if fitted)
Proceed as follows:
1. Remove the basket.
2. Open the cover “H”.
3. Open the tap “I” by turning it anticlockwise.
4. Run the liquid into a container (see the figure
below), making sure it doesn’t overflow.
5. Remove any deposits form the bowl using a
sponge or tissue paper.
6. Close the tap by turning it clockwise.
7. Close the cover “H”.
It is a good idea to keep the oil used to fry fish
separate from that used to fry other food.
If lard or fat is used, make sure it does not cool
down too much, otherwise it will solidify.

OPERATING FAULTS
FAULT
Bad smell
The oil
overflows
Food does not brown during cooking
The oil does not heat up
CAUSE
The oil has deteriorated.
The cooking liquid is unsuitable.
The oil has deteriorated and causes too
much foam.
You have immersed food which is not
sufficiently dry in the hot oil.
The basket has been immersed too
quickly. The oil level in the deep fryer is
over the maximum limit.
Oil temperature is too low.
The basket is over loaded
The deep fryer has previously been used
without oil in the fryer bowl, causing the
thermal safety device to break.
REMEDY
Replace the oil or fat.
Use a good quality sunflower or
vegetable oil oil.
Replace the oil or fat.
Dry the food well.
Immerse it slowly.
Reduce the amount of oil in the
fryer bowl.
Select a higher temperature.
Reduce a food quantity.
Contact the Service Centre (the
device must be replaced).
CLEANING
Before cleaning, make sure that the power plug is
disconnected.
Never immerse the deep fryer in water and never place
it under running tap water (see Fig. 8). The infiltration of
water into the control unit may cause electrocution.
Check that the oil has cooled down, and then remove the
control unit and drain the oil. In the models without the
oil drain tap “I”, remove the bowl “P” and empty it
by tilting it. Remove the deposits from the bowl using a
sponge or absorbent paper.
Except for the control unit, power cable and heating element, all the other parts can be cleaned with warm
water and dishwashing detergent.
Never use abrasive sponges, to avoid damaging the
deep fryer.
When this procedure has been completed, carefully
dry all parts, to prevent hot oil from spraying out
during operation.
