Important safeguards
First read all instructions before use and retain for later reference.
Before first use, remove the packing materials and wash the accessories and the inner pan in
warm water. Dry well before use. Make sure that the electrical parts remain dry. The deep fryer is
equipped with an adjustable thermostat and an indicator lamp. The ‘open’ frying system ensures
excellent professional results and easy cleaning.
Essential Safety Information
• THE LIDS SHOULD BE REMOVED AND KEPT OFF DURING COOKING
• Always place the deep fryer on a level, stable surface and keep all flammable materials
away.
• Make sure that the deep fryer is not near or on a hot plate or gas hob.
• Before you use the deep fryers they must be filled with the required amount of oil. Never
fill the fryer past the maximum level indicated on the wall of the inner bowl.
• Never use the deep fryers without oil or below the MIN level because this could damage
the elements.
• Never move the deep fryer during use. The oil becomes very hot and you can get
burned. Wait to move the deep fryer until the oil has cooled off.
• The deep fryer is protected with a thermal safety device, which switches the machine off
automatically if it overheats.
• Never immerse the element assembly or control panels in water.
• Never leave the deep fryer unattended while in use. Always ensure the safety of
children if they are near the deep fryer.
• If the deep fryer and/or cord are damaged a professional service department must repair
them. Do not try to repair the unit yourself or replace a damaged cord. This requires
special tools.
• Be sure not to damage the heating element. (Do not bend or dent)
• THIS APPLIANCE IS EQU IPPED WITH A SAFETY CUT- OFF, WHICH ENSURES TH AT
THE HEATING ELEMENT CAN ONLY FUNCTION WHEN THE ELEMENT IS
CORRECTLY PLACED ON THE FRYER.
• In the case of overheating, the thermal protective device will switch off the fryer
automatically. This device is a small red button found either on the underside of the
electrical component, or in the cord storage compartment. It can be re-activated by
pushing the button in again with a pointed object (e.g a pen). Disconnect from mains
THE TWO FRYERS TOGETHER. ALWAYS USE A PROPER DOUBLE WALL
before re-activating. !
EACH FRYER MUST BE CONNECTED TO IT’S OWN MAINS WALL

SOCKET OR TWO SEPARATE SOCKETS
HOW TO OPERATE THE DEEP FRYER
Why use a twin fryer?
Using a twin fryer means you have the choice to cook a small amount or a very
large amount of food. Since each fryer has its own temperature control you can
cook different foods at different temperatures. Another benefit is that oil used to
cook one food (like fish) will not taint the taste of other foods (like doughnuts) if
they are cooked in separate compartments.
This type of fryer may only be used with oil or liquid fat, and is not suitable for
use with solid fat. Solid fat may contain water, which can cause hot fat to be
sprayed out when heated.
Never switch on the deep fryer without oil or fat, as this could damage the
machine. Also, do not place any other liquids such as water or other
substances in the pan. Place the deep fryer on a dry, level, stable surface.
Since the deep fryer becomes hot during use, make sure that it is not too close
to other objects.
Remove the lid from deep fryer and take out the accessories.
Fill the deep fryer with the desired amount of oil or fat. Make sure that it is filled
to the minimum level but not higher that the maximum level as indicated on the
inside of the appliance. For best results, we recommend that you do not mix
different types of oil together.
Choose the temperature, which is suitable for what you are frying. Consult the
temperature table.
Use the handle to place the basket in the fryer.
Place the food to be deep-fried into the basket.
For best results, put dry food into the basket. This is especially important with
home made chips etc. Always dry these before frying.
Lower the basket into the oil slowly to prevent excessive bubbling.
The indicator light will go out when the temperature you have selected has been
reached. To keep the oil at the selected temperature, the thermostat repeatedly
goes on and off, and the indicator light as well.
Raise the basket again when the frying time has elapsed.
Remove the plug from the outlet.
Rinse the handle and the basket after use, and dry thoroughly.
Once the deep fryer has completely cooled off, you can replace the basket in
the appliance and store it. Store the deep fryer with the lid closed, in a dark
place. In this way, you can leave the oil and the basket in the deep fryer when
storing.
FRYING TIPS (BASED ON ONE FRYER COMPARTMENT)
Use a maximum of 200 grams of French fries per litre of oil for best results.
When using fries made from fresh potatoes, dry the fries after washing so that
no water will go into the oil. Deep-fry the fries in 2 stages. First stage (prefrying): 5 to 10 minutes at 170 degrees c. Second stage (final frying) 2 to 4
minutes at 190 degrees c. Drain well.

TO REPLACE THE OIL
Make sure that the deep fryer and the oil have totally cooled off before replacing
the oil (remove the plug from the socket!). Replace the oil regularly. This is
definitely necessary if the oil becomes dark, or takes on a different odour. In
any case, replace the oil once after every 10 times that you use the deep fryer.
Replace the oil all at once; do not mix old and new oil. Discarded oil is a burden
to the environment. Do not throw in the normal rubbish bin, but follow the
guidelines of the waste collector in your area.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE
• Clean the deep fryer on both the inside and outside regularly.
• Clean the outside of the deep fryer with a damp cloth and dry with a soft
clean cloth.
• Never use abrasive cleaners or sponges.
• The basket and the handle can be cleaned in warm, soapy water. Dry
well before using again.
• When replacing the oil you can also clean the inside of the deep fryer.
Empty the deep fryer and first clean the inside with a paper towel and
then with a cloth dipped in soapy water. Then wipe with a damp cloth
and allow to dry thoroughly.
• All components, with the exception of the electrical parts, may be
cleaned in warm soapy water. Dry thoroughly before use.
• Dishwasher cleaning is not recommended.
