Deep frying with your new deep fryer will be
even more fun than before.

Among other things, the appliance offers you the
following advantages:

– a gentle fat melting stage
– thanks to exact (electronic) temperature control,

the surfaces of deep fried titbits can be closed
so fast that deep frying oil or fat cannot
penetrate into the food you are cooking. This
ensures that proteins, vitamins and minerals are
retained.

– thanks to the novel installation method

implemented, installation is child's play!

To ensure that you will be able to use this
appliance in all its diversity, read through the
operating and assembly instructions
conscientiously before operating it for the first
time. The instructions contain important notes
on use, installation and maintenance of the
appliance.
You will find notes on Page 3 that you ought to
observe before operating the appliance for the

first time.
The chapters entitled “Structure and operating

principle" and “Operation" will tell you all the

things your deep fryer is capable of doing and
how the appliance is operated.

“Cleaning and care" makes sure that your
appliance will stay beautiful for a long time.

And now we wish you lots of fun with your
deep fryer.

1. Read All Instructions.

2. To eliminate the risk of burns or fire by reaching
over the heated surface units, cabinet storage
space located above the surface units should be
avoided. If cabinet storage is to be provided, the
risk can be reduced by installing a range hood
that projects horizontally a minimum of 5 inches
(127 mm) beyond the bottom of cabinets.

3. Important instructions
a) Ensure that this appliance is properly

connected and grounded by a qualified
electrician.

b) Never use this appliance for warming or

heating the room.

c) Do Not Leave Children Alone – Children

should not be left alone or unattended in area
where appliances are in use. They should
never be allowed to sit or stand on any part
of the appliance.

potholders on hot surface may result in burns
from steam. Do not let potholders touch hot
heating elements. Do not use a towel or other
bulky cloth.

i) Never Leave Surface Units Unattended at

High Heat Settings – Boilover causes smoking
and greasy spillovers that may ignite.

1.1 For your safety

You must not operate the appliance if it is
damaged.

The appliance must only be connected by an
authorised specialist, paying attention to the
relevant regulations of the power supply companies
and the regional construction regulations. Observe

the assembly instructions!
When connecting electrical appliances in the

proximity of the deep fryer, make sure that
connecting cables do not come into contact with hot
cooking surfaces.

As the user, you yourself are responsible for
maintenance and proper use in the household.

Only ever operate the appliance under
supervision.

Please make sure never to heat up the deep fryer
while it is empty. Top up the oil or fat when the level
drops below the minimum mark. Risk of burns!

Caution! The appliance gets hot during operation.
Keep it out of the reach of children!

Note: to avoid jeopardising the electrical safety of
the appliance, it is forbidden to use high-pressure
or steam jet cleaning devices.

Isolate the appliance from the mains during
every maintenance operation. To do this, remove
the mains plug or actuate the corresponding fuse.

Repairs may only be carried out by authorised
electricians, in order to guarantee the safety of
the appliance.

No warranty claims can be lodged for any
damage resulting from failure to observe these
instructions.

Caution! Fats and oils can ignite easily if they get
overheated. Keep naked lights away from the
appliance! Fire risk!

Observe particular caution when working with
water in the proximity of the warm appliance.

Explosion risk!
Foodstuffs that are prepared in fat and oil (e.g.

French fries) must only be prepared under constant
supervision!

Caution! Over-greased filters are a fire risk if the
appliance is positioned under an extractor hood or
adjacent to a hob ventilator!

The appliance cover must only be placed over
the deep fryer after it has cooled down. Risk of
burns!

Technical modifications reserved.

1.2 Operating for the first time

Before operating the appliance for the first time,

please pay attention to the following notes:
– Read through these instructions attentively

before operating your appliance for the first
time.

by a specialist.

– The rating plate for this appliance is included

with the instructions on a separate sheet. Store
the rating plate in the same location as your
operating and assembly instructions.

– Remove the packaging from the appliance and

1.3 About use

The appliance is intended solely for use in the

household and must not be put to any other uses.
Use the appliance to prepare meals only. It must

not be used to heat up the room in which it is
installed.

Keep ventilation openings open (doors, extractor
hoods and windows).

Do not store any combustible items inside the
appliance. During operation, only ever leave the
items you need inside the appliance.

Only ever use deep frying inserts (deep frying
baskets) that are intended for the purpose.

The (heating) symbol in the control panel
goes off as soon as the set temperature has been
reached.

Return the “Temperature" knob to “0" after deep
frying.

The appliance must not be operated empty (i.e.
without oil or fat; do not use water!). If the
appliance is operated empty, it will switch off
automatically and the (limiter) symbol will
appear in the display. If this is the case, turn the
“Temperature" knob to the 0 position. Wait until the

(limiter) symbol goes off again.

Note: If the (limiter) symbol appears in the
display, there may be many reasons for this (see
Structure and operating principle).

Top up oil or fat as soon as it is below the minimum
level (bottom marking). Caution: there is a risk of
fires if the filling should drop below the bottom
marking!

Observe caution with oils and fats. They may
overheat and burn easily.
Old/soiled fat must be replaced if it becomes
brown, has an unpleasant smell and/or smokes
prematurely. Fire risk!

If a fire should break out, remove the mains plug
and place the lid on the deep fryer. Never

extinguish with water!
Switch off the extractor hood immediately
because the draught will otherwise intensify
the fire!

The deep frying oil/fat will foam over if foodstuffs
that are too wet or if excessive quantities are
inserted. Risk of burns!

In the event of malfunctions, first of all check
the household fuses. If the problem has nothing
to do with the power supply, please contact your
specialist dealer or your local Gaggenau after-sales
service.

Built-in temperature protection prevents
overheating of the appliance and of build-in
furniture.

Clean the appliance at regular intervals and also
replace the deep frying oil or fat at regular intervals
because soiling causes the deep frying oil or fat to
become more easily ignitable.

Do not use the lid during deep frying. The lid
must only be placed over the deep fryer after it has
cooled down fully.

Caution: never use the glass cover of the steam
cooker for the deep fryer.
