If you are using oil, remove the lid and pour
the oil into the fryer body up to the maximum
level indicated on the tank E (Approx. 3.4 litres
of oil). We recommend you use corn, groundnut,
rape seed or vegetable oil. Do not mix different
types of oil. Lower

For previously used solid fat that has solidified,
use the melting procedure as follows. Make some
holes in the fat with a plastic spatula being careful
to avoid damaging the heating element. Plug your
fryer into the mains and switch on the power

Your appliance is
equipped with a
safety thermostat
that switches your
fryer off in case of
overheating. This
may happen if there
is no (or too little)
oil in the tank or if you try to melt fat without
following the previous instructions. If the
thermostat has switched the fryer off, allow your
fryer to cool down and carefully press the reset

There are two methods of cooking in your
fryer; one general method for most food stuffs
and another for home battered products.
Remove the fryer lid before heating up and
cooking.
GGeenneerraall ccooookkiinngg mmeetthhoodd
1 Adjust the control dial to the desired
temperature. The red temperature indicator
light will illuminate.
2 When the oil or fat has reached the required
temperature the light will go out. Lift the
basket and put it on the rest H so that it is
not in contact with the oil or fat. Place the
food, which should be as dry as possible into
the raised basket.
3 THE BASKET SHOULD ALWAYS BE IN THE
RAISED POSITION WHEN IT IS TO BE
FILLED WITH FOOD. Lower the basket into
the tank.
4 When the food is cooked, place the basket on
its raised position for a few seconds.
5 Remove the basket from the fryer and put the
fried food in a dish with fat absorbing paper
(eg. kitchen paper/kitchen roll).
6 After use, set the temperature knob to the
lowest position by turning it anticlockwise
then switch the fryer off. Remove the mains
plug from the socket.
7 ALLOW 2 HOURS FOR THE OIL TO
COOL DOWN. Then remove the basket
from the oil and use kitchen paper to wipe away
excess oil, press the handle forward to unlock
it from its fixed position and ONLY THEN
lower the basket and handle into the oil. tank
THE STORAGE LID SHOULD NOT BE
USED ON THE FRYER WHEN
COOKING.
8 Clean the fryer AFTER THE OIL OR FAT
HAS COOLED DOWN.
CCooookkiinngg hhoommee--bbaatttteerreedd ffooooddss
This method allows for the fact that if wet
batter is placed in the basket prior to cooking the
food may stick. This method of cooking requires
extreme care.
1 Adjust the control dial to the desired
temperature. The red temperature indicator
light will come on.
2 When the oil or fat has reached the required
temperature the light will go out. LEAVE THE
BASKET IN THE DOWN POSITION.
3 Coat the raw food in the batter and allow it
to drain slightly to get rid of the excess
coating. VERY CAREFULLY, SLOWLY
LOWER THE COATED FOOD INTO THE
HOT OIL, USING A SUITABLE IMPLEMENT
OR TONGS. This allows the batter to
become solid and prevents it sealing to the
mesh of the basket. REMEMBER TO TAKE
CARE AS THE OIL MAY SPIT AS THE FOOD
IS ADDED.
4 You may now follow the instructions as given
in parts 4 to 7 in general cooking method.
AFTER USE, DISCONNECT YOUR FRYER
FROM THE ELECTRICITY SUPPLY BY
REMOVING THE PLUG FROM THE WALL

• Never use the fryer without oil or fat.
• Always ensure that you use a good quality lard
or oil for deep frying. Corn, groundnut, rape
seed or vegetable oils are ideal. Do not use
margarine, butter or olive oil.
• Avoid mixing oil or fat of different qualities.
• Change the oil or fat when it becomes brown
or milky in colour.
• If there are water droplets on the base of the
tank, the oil should be changed.
• Important: Before each use pierce holes in
solid fat with a plastic spatula, as far as the
bottom of the fryer body, so that any water
trapped under the fat can escape as steam.
Make sure not to damage the heating element
in doing so.
If you use oil, leave it to cool and transfer it
to a metal or ceramic container.
PPrreeppaarriinngg ffoooodd
• Take into account the food to be cooked
before you select your frying temperature. As
a general guide pre-cooked food needs a
higher cooking temperature than raw food.
• Your food must always be completely dry in
order to avoid overflowing and to prolong the
use of the oil or fat.
• All foodstuffs, particularly frozen food and
potatoes, contain moisture. When lowered
into the hot oil or fat, the water in the food
turns to steam and escapes.
• Old potatoes are ideal for making chips. Your
chips should be evenly sized so that they cook
evenly and should be rinsed and dried before
they are fried.
CCooookkiinngg
Do not overload the basket as it may cause a
drop of the temperature that may leave the food
greasy. Do not use your fryer under wall
mounted cupboards which could prevent you
removing the lid easily. Your fryer will always be
ready to use if you store cooled and filtered oil
inside, with the lid in place. Cook your food
thoroughly. Remember that your food may begin
to turn golden brown before it is cooked
through.
Select your cooking utensils with care. Do not
use utensils that may melt. Metal utensils become
hot and therefore should have insulated handles.
When using metal utensils TAKE CARE NOT
TO DAMAGE THE HEATING ELEMENT.
Your fryer has a maximum capacity of 1kg of
food. For best results with frozen chips, we
recommend no more than 900g are being used.
Avoid leaving food to drain for too long in the
basket as the food may become soft and lose its
crunchiness.
Old potatoes are ideal for making chips. Your
chips should be evenly sized so that they cook
evenly. They should be rinsed in a colander under
a cold tap and dried using a kitchen towel or
absorbent paper. For best results fry your chips
at 160°C for 4-6 minutes and then place the
basket on its rest. Turn the temperature dial to
190°C and when the temperature control light
goes out lower the basket again for a further 2-4
minutes. During this time, shake the basket at
short intervals to ensure the chips get an overall
browning.

The basket and its handle can be hand washed
in warm soapy water. IT SHOULD BE
THOROUGHLY DRIED AFTERWARDS.
When the oil has
completely cooled, the
tank of your fryer can be
removed for cleaning by
following these
instructions:
Remove the lid, basket
and control unit. To
remove the tank
completely from its shell
place your finger tips
under the rim of the tank
as indicated I. Once
removed, drain the oil contained in the tank
through fine muslin or absorbent paper placed in
a suitable funnel. The fryer body can be washed
I
7
by hand in hot soapy water and the oil tank in a
dishwasher.
N.B. If solid fat is used for cooking purposes,
the frying basket should be removed when
cooking is completed and washed separately.
Remove the control unit and element when the
fat has cooled down but not solidified. The fryer
should then be allowed to cool COMPLETELY,
with the tank still in its position, before removing
the majority of the solid fat with a plastic spatula
or spoon. The tank can then be removed and
washed as directed previously. PLEASE FOLLOW
THESE DIRECTIONS CAREFULLY.
Dry the tank thoroughly and replace it in the
body of your fryer. ALWAYS MAKE SURE THAT
THE TANK IS COMPLETELY DRY BEFORE
YOU PUT IT BACK INTO YOUR FRYER.
You may store your filtered oil in the fryer if
you make sure that it is covered by the lid.

If you find the fryer ‘power on’ light is not illuminated
when the unit is switched on, it is probably due to
the incorrect fitting of the control unit. If the unit is
not fitted correctly the safety switch on the back
of the unit will not operate.
Fitting the control unit correctly
1 Replace the control unit by locating the two ribs
on the control unit into the 2 slots on the black
