Important
• Read these instructions in conjunction
with the illustrations (page 3) before

if the voltage indicated at the bottom of
the appliance is the same as the mains

• Never immerse the deep fat fryer in
water.
• Clean the various parts with a damp
cloth prior to use. Ensure that they are
thoroughly dry before filling the deep fat
fryer with oil or fat.
• Do not switch on the deep fat frying pan
until you have filled it with oil or fat.
When melting fat: initially select 160 °C /

Before you start frying, always check if
there is still sufficiently oil/fat in the fryer.

indicated in the table. Never fill the
basket higher than up to 3⁄4.
If the basket is overfilled, hot fat/oil may
flow over the fryer ridge.
• During the process hot steam comes
through the filter in the lid. Keep your
hands and face away from this steam.
• Keep the deep fat fryer out of the reach
of children at all times especially when
in use.
• Do not let the mains cord hang over the
edge of the table or sink.
• Remove the plug from the mains socket
after use, so that the oil or fat can cool
down. Do not move the fryer until it has
cooled sufficiently.
• If the mains cord of this appliance is
damaged, it must only be replaced by
Philips or their service representative,
as special tools and/or parts are
required.
