9
Warning and Safety instructions
Correct use
The deep fat fryer gets hot when in use and remains hot for some
time after being switched off. The risk of burning is present until the
residual heat indicators have gone out.
Do not use the deep fat fryer to heat up the room. Due to the high
temperatures radiated, objects left near the deep fat fryer could
catch fire.
Overheated fat and oil can ignite and catch fire. Never leave the
deep fat fryer unattended. Do not attempt to extinguish burning oil or
fat with water.
Switch the appliance off and carefully smother the flames with a fire
blanket or with the fryer lid.
Fire hazard.
Never use naked flames, e.g. an ignited lighter, near the deep fat
fryer.
Do not cover the deep fat fryer, e.g. with a cloth or protective foil.
The material could catch fire, shatter or melt if the appliance is
switched on by mistake or if residual heat is still present.
The frying basket must only be covered using the cover supplied
with the appliance.
You could burn yourself on the hot deep fat fryer. Protect your
hands with heat-resistant pot holders or gloves when handling hot
pots and pans. Do not let them get wet or damp, as this causes heat
to transfer through the material more quickly with the risk of scalding
or burning yourself.
When using an electrical appliance, e.g. a hand-held food blender,
near the deep fat fryer, ensure that the cable of the electrical appliance cannot come into contact with the hot deep fat fryer. The insulation on the cable could become damaged.
The heater element must be lowered before the deep fat fryer is
switched on.
10
Warning and Safety instructions
Do not pour hot fat from frying into plastic containers. These will
melt at high temperatures. Only use heat-resistant containers for hot
fat.
The deep fat fryer must only be used when it has been filled with
oil and without the cover on it.
Clean or change dirty oil or fat in good time. Oil or fat containing
impurities is liable to catch fire.

and add a little washing-up liquid.
Turn the rotary control in a clockwise
direction to 130°C and bring the water briefly to the boil.
Switch the deep fat fryer off and drain
the water off into a heat-resistant
container (see “After frying” in the
“Operation” chapter).
Leave the appliance to cool down
and then raise the heating element.
Switching on the ProLine element for the first time
The metal components have a protective coating which when heated for the
first time will give off a slight smell and
possibly some vapours.
The smell and any vapours given off do
not indicate a faulty connection or appliance and they are not hazardous to
health.

Do not switch the deep fat fryer on
when it is empty or with the heating
element raised up.
Turn the control clockwise to the re-
quired temperature.
The in-operation indicator and the temperature indicator will light up. The residual heat indicator will light up after a
certain temperature has been reached.
The temperature indicator light will
switch on and off intermittently in conjunction with the heating element. It
will only light up when the heating element is on.
Switching off
Turn the control anti-clockwise to the
0position.
17
Operation
Residual heat indicator
If the deep fat fryer is still hot, the residual heat indicator will light up after it
has been switched off.
The residual heat indicator remains on
until the deep fat fryer is cool enough to
touch.
Danger of burning due to hot
surfaces.
The surfaces will be hot after cook-
ing.
Do not touch the surfaces while the
residual heat indicators are on.
Before frying
Do not use the fryer lid when deep
fat frying.
Only use oil and fat that has a high
flash point. Liquid or solid fat can be
used.
Never mix different types of oil or fat
together.
The oil reservoir must be filled with sufficient oil or fat for frying (at least 3litres
or 3kg, maximum 4litres or 4kg).
Check that the drain tap is closed.
Fill the oil reservoir with oil or fat.
Solid fat should be cut up into small
pieces first.
When re-using fat that has solidified
in the reservoir, make a hole in the fat
as far as the heating element. This allows any water which has collected
under the fat to evaporate.
Turn the control to 100°C and wait
until the fat has melted.
18
Check the level in the reservoir. This
needs to be between the minimum
and maximum level markers at the
back of the reservoir.
Deep/shallow frying
Set the temperature required (see
chart) and wait until the temperature
indicator goes out for the first time.
The oil has now reached the set temperature.
Carefully lower the frying basket con-
taining the food to be fried into the
hot oil. If the oil froths a lot, lift the
basket out of the oil briefly and then
slowly lower it into the hot oil again.
When the food has cooked, lift the
basket out of the hot oil. Shake the
basket a little to remove any excess
oil, and then hang it on its bracket.
Do not leave food suspended over
the reservoir for too long as steam
from the oil can cause the food to
lose it crispness. Finally, place the
food onto kitchen paper towel to
soak up any excess oil.
Operation
Whilst frying food make sure you do
not touch the hot oil. Protect your
hands in particular, e.g. by wearing
heat-resistant oven gloves.

Operation
Tips for frying
Handling and cooking food correctly
is essential for maintaining good
health. Food should only be fried until golden, not dark brown.
Never add salt to hot fat. This will
cause the fat to boil over.
– The oil or fat needs to be hot enough
to seal the food quickly. If the temperature is too low the food will absorb too much fat making it difficult
to digest.
It is important to wait until the temperature indicator goes out (which
means that the set temperature has
been reached) before adding food to
the fryer.
– Best results are achieved by keeping
to the temperature guidelines given in
the chart. Only use temperatures
above 170°C where absolutely necessary (e.g. for fish and meat which
has not been coated in breadcrumbs
or pastry).
– Heating the oil for too long will speed
up its deterioration rate.
– Food should be as dry as possible for
frying, as moisture can cause frothing. Damp food should be dried using
paper towel. Remove any excess ice
and frost from deep frozen food.
– Lower the basket slowly, so that the
oil does not froth over.
– Rinsing freshly cut potatoes under
cold running water and then drying
them thoroughly with paper towel will
prevent them sticking together.
– Never season food before frying. Salt,
seasoning, icing sugar etc. should be
added after the food has been removed from the basket and drained
of excess oil.
– When frying deep frozen food, use
the lowest temperature quoted on the
manufacturer’s packaging.
– Keep frying times as short as pos-
sible.
– Select the correct ratio of food to fat/
oil. This should be between
1:10and1:15. You will need between
1and1.5litres of fat/oil to fry 100g of
chips, for example. More oil would
heat the food being fried to too high a
temperature; too much food would
cause the temperature of the fat/oil to
drop too low.
22
Operation
After frying
Switch the fryer off and filter the oil.
This not only removes impurities which
can affect the taste of the food, but will
help the oil last longer.
Allow the oil to cool down, but not to
solidify. If it has solidified it can be
melted by heating the fryer up to
100°C.
Place a heat-resistant container of a
suitable size, e.g. a metal pan, beneath the drain tap under the appliance.
Open the drain by turning the tap
anti-clockwise as far as it will go.
Filter the oil by pouring it through kit-
chen paper or a metal sieve lined with
kitchen paper or filter paper and store
it in a closed, heat-resistant container
until it is needed again.
The oil must be replaced if it:
– is very dark and thick
– smells unpleasant and froths
– begins to smoke at a temperature of
170°C or less
Make sure that the drain tap under
the appliance is always easy to access for draining.
Always wait until the oil has cooled
down before draining to avoid the
danger of being scalded. Make sure
that the container you use for draining the oil into is heat-resistant.
After using the fryer do not replace
the lid until the appliance has cooled
down.
After the oil has drained, close the tap
by turning it clockwise as far as it
will go.
23
Safety features
Safety switch-off
Your deep fat fryer is fitted with a safety
switch-off. It will switch the heating off
automatically if:
– The oil reservoir is not filled to at
least the lower level marker.
– The fryer is switched on when empty.
– The fryer is switched on when the
heating element has been raised (e.g.
for cleaning).
Turn the control to0 and wait until the
heating element has cooled down.
Use a pen or similar to press the
pin on the front right-hand side of
the appliance in. The deep fat fryer
can now be used again in the normal
way.

Calculating the worktop cut-out
The frames of the ProLine elements overlap the worktop at the outside right and
left by 8mm on each side.
Add up the widths of the ProLine elements and subtract 16mm from this figure.
The ProLine elements are 288mm, 380mm or 576mm wide depending on the
ProLine elements (see “Building-in dimensions” in the “Installation” chapter).
Spacer bars
When installing several ProLine elements, an additional spacer bar must be fitted
in between the individual ProLine elements. The position for securing the spacer
bar will depend on the width of the ProLine element.

Installation
Preparing the worktop
Make the worktop cut-out as shown
in “Building-in dimensions” or as calculated (see “Installing several ProLine appliances” in the “Installation”
chapter). Remember to maintain the
minimum safety distances (see
“Safety distances” in the “Installation” chapter).
Wooden worktops
Seal any cut surfaces on wooden
worktops with a special varnish, silicone sealant or resin to prevent the
wood from swelling as a result of
moisture ingress. The sealant must
be heat-resistant.
Installation
Make sure that the sealant does not
come into contact with the top of the
worktop.
Position the spring clamps and the
spacer bars at the top edge of the
cut-out in the positions shown in the
illustrations.
Secure the spring clamps and
spacer bars with the 3.5x25 mm
wood screws supplied.

Natural stone worktops
You will need heavy duty double-sided
tape (not supplied) to secure the
spring clamps and spacer bars.
Stick the tape to the top edge of
the cut-out in the positions shown in
the diagram.
Position the spring clamps and
spacer bars on the top edge of the
cut-out and press them firmly into
place.

Apply silicone to the side and lower
edges of the spring clamps and
the spacer bars.
Then fill gap between spacer
bar and the worktop with silicone.

Installation
Fitting the ProLine element
Feed the mains connection cable
down through the cut-out.
Starting at the front, position the Pro-
Line appliance in the worktop cutout.
Using both hands, press down evenly
on the sides of the ProLine element
until it clicks into position. When doing this make sure that the seal of the
appliance sits flush with the worktop
on all sides. This is important to ensure an effective seal all round.
Do not use any additional sealant
(e.g. silicone) on the ProLine element.
If the seal does not meet the worktop
correctly on the corners, the corner radius (≤R4) can be carefully scribed to
suit.
Installing several ProLine elements
Push the built-in ProLine element to
the side until the holes in the spacer
bar can be seen.
Fit cover strip into the holes in
spacer bar .
Starting at the front, position the next
ProLine element in the worktop cutout.
Proceed as described previously.
