WARNINGS
• Turn the deep fryer on only after filling it with oil or fat. Operating the appliance without oil or fat caus-
es serious 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.
Do not use extension cords
The appliance is fitted with a short power cord to avoid the risks associated with twisting of the cord.

DESCRIPTION
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 (V) (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 guide (N). The deep fryer is now ready for use.
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 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, figure 3. If the magnetic connector does not
remain in place, check that it has been inserted correctly, (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 LM-132 cords provided by a De'Longhi authorized service center only.

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 (U) (if present), pull out the length of cord required to connect the appliance to the
outlet (see fig. 4A). “
320°f” will appear on the display (A) and the deep fryer emits a beep when plug-
ged 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 protruding 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 canola 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.3lb) (1.3 kg).
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 285°F to 375°F.
Pressing the button once decreases or increases the temperature by 5°F
(3°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 decreases or increases time by 30 seconds.
After setting the temperature and time, press the ON/OFF 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 POWER 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 READY light (F)
comes on and the deep fryer emits two “beeps”.
