SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

POLARIZED PLUG INSTRUCTIONS

Some appliances are equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit into the polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not properly fit into the outlet at first, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a competent qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

For appliances equipped with a standard plug, simply insert the plug into the outlet without paying attention to the way you plug it.

SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. Do not use the appliance with an extension cord.

DISASSEMBLING THE DEEP FAT FRYER

Remove the control panel from the appliance. To do this, gently pull the control panel upwards until it is released.

Take the interior bowl with your two hands and pull it up gently.

ASSEMBLING THE DEEP FAT FRYER

Stand the appliance on a dry horizontal surface.

Place the bowl back in the housing and push it downwards.

Replace the control panel and the accessories. To replace the control panel, firmly slide the control panel downward into the location grooves on the back of the housing until it is locked.

NOTE: The appliance will only operate when the control panel is correctly fitted to the outer jacket.

Press the end of the basket's handle together, insert its pins into the holes foreseen on the basket and unfold the handle of the basket until it is locked to allow rising the basket easily.

Put the remaining power cord length in the cord storage in the back of the appliance.

FIRST USE

When using the appliance for the first time, pour the required amount of oil in the bowl, making sure that the level is between the MIN and MAX marks indicated inside the bowl.

We recommend that you use a liquid oil that is suitable for deep fat frying. Check the label on the bottle. If you wish to use a solid fat, cut the fat in small pieces. Plug in the appliance, put the thermostat on the minimum position and add the fat pieces slowly. When the fat has melted, set the thermostat to the desired temperature. WARNING: FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS WILL DAMAGE YOUR DEEP FAT FRYER.

USE

Plug in the appliance and set the thermostat to the desired temperature. The power light and the pilot light will illuminate. As soon as the desired temperature is reached, the pilot light will go out. When the temperature falls, the thermostat will be activated again, and the pilot light will illuminate. It will go out again as soon as the temperature is reached.

Close the lid.

When the fryer has reached the desired temperature, take off the lid and raise the basket using the handle. You can attach the basket to the edge of the bowl.

Place the food into the basket slowly to avoid splashes and lower the basket fully into the oil or fat.

You now have 2 options : Closing the lid - Its filter will reduce odours and smoke, but keep some steam and moisture inside the fryer – or frying with the lid open, which might give better frying results.

If the lid is used, use the viewing window to check the food. When the food is ready, take off the lid, raise the basket by lifting the handle and let the food drain. Warning: be careful when you open the lid, as hot steam may come out. Be careful not to get burn.

If necessary you can take the basket out of the appliance.

Ensure the food is thoroughly cooked inside and out.

Your deep fat fryer does not have a separate ON/OFF switch. After use, turn the thermostat to its off position and unplug the appliance. Never move the appliance as long as the oil or fat is still hot.

FOR BEST RESULTS

Always dry food well before frying. Very ‘wet’ food can cause the oil to ‘foam’ and may overflow.

Food for frying should be roughly of the same size to ensure the food cooks evenly and thoroughly.

Many types of food may need to be coated before frying - typical coatings are batter or breadcrumbs.

6

USK FT 14417 - 080522

Always wait until the fryer has reached the desired temperature and the pilot light has gone out, before adding the food.

Do not overfill the basket.

CAUTION: This fryer has a built-in safety cut-off switch that triggers if the unit accidentally overheats (e.g. temperature control fails to function.) Should this happen, firstly switch off and unplug the deep fat fryer. Wait until the element cools down (about 15 minutes). Then press the restart button situated in the back of the control panel, above the cord storage using a toothpick. This will reset the deep fat fryer. Your deep fat fryer is now ready to use. To make sure this does not happen again, please read the instruction manual thoroughly.

Periodically check for looseness of screws or nuts and retighten them. CAUTION: Overtightening can result in stripping of screws or nuts or cracking of handle or feet.

RECIPES

Fresh Chips

Fresh chips are best fried in two stages.

Use ‘old’ potatoes (not ‘new’ potatoes). Cut the potatoes into equal sizes. Rinse the chipped potatoes under running water to reduce the starch level. Dry thoroughly and separate the pieces.

Do not exceed the recommended weight. When the temperature has reached 355°F, place the chips in the basket and slowly lower the basket into the oil

For 500g of chips, fry for 8 minutes on 355°F then raise the basket.

Wait until the temperature light goes out again, lower the basket and fry for a further 2 minutes.

Raise the basket and let the chips drain.

For best results, before serving gently dab the chips with absorbent paper to remove excess oil.

Frying times may vary slightly on the type of potatoes used and the thickness of the chips.

Onion Rings

Frying temperature - 350°F C for 4 to 5 minutes

Peel the onions and slice. Separate the slices into rings

7

USK FT 14417 - 080522

Then dust the rings in plain flour

Place the rings separately in the frying basket and fry a few at a time.

Breaded Mushrooms

Frying temperature - 350°F for 4 to 5 minutes

Beat 1 egg and dip the mushrooms into the egg

Then coat the mushrooms with breadcrumbs

Place separately into the frying basket and fry a few at a time.

GUARDE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES

INFORMACIÓN SOBRE EL ENCHUFE POLARIZADO

Algunos aparatos están provistos con un enchufe polarizado (una pata es más ancha que la otra). Para reducir el riesgo de choque eléctrico, este enchufe calza en el tomacorriente polarizado de una sola manera. Si el enchufe no cabe totalmente en el tomacorriente, gire el enchufe. Si aún así no calza, consulte a un servicio técnico cualificado. No intente anular esta característica de seguridad.

Para los aparatos provistos con un enchufe clásico, basta con insertar el enchufe en la toma de corriente.

INSTRUCCIONES DEL CABLE

El cable de alimentación del aparato es un cable corto a fin de disminuir el riesgo de accidentes (caídas al tropezar con él, etc.). No utilice el aparato con un alargador.
