Using
This appliance is not designed to be used by people (including children) with a
physical, sensory or mental impairment, or people without knowledge or experience,
unless they are supervised or given prior instructions concerning the use of the
appliance by someone responsible for their safety.
Children must be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the appliance.
Use a flat, stable, heat-resistant surface, away from any water splashes.
Never leave the appliance unattended when in use.
This electrical equipment operates at high temperatures which may cause burns.
Do not touch the hot parts of the appliance (filter, window, metal walls (depending
on model), other apparent metal parts…). Be careful of hot steam and never put
your hands above the filtration zone.
Do not switch on the appliance near to flammable materials (blinds, curtains….)
or close to an external heat source (gas stove, hot plate etc.).
In the event of fire, never try to extinguish the flames with water. Close the lid.
Unplug the appliance.
Smother the flames with a damp cloth.
Do not move the appliance when it is full of liquids or hot food.
Never immerse the appliance or the electrical control unit in water !
Before throwing away your appliance, the timer battery must be removed by a Tefal
Service Centre (depending on model).
Do not store your deep fryer outside. Store it in a dry and well ventilated area.
It is essential that you wait until the oil has cooled down before storing the fryer.
Cooking
Never plug in the deep fryer without oil or fat inside.
The oil level must always be between the min and max markers.
If you use solid vegetable fat, cut it into pieces and melt it over a slow heat (max
150°C) in a separate pan beforehand, then slowly pour it into the deep fryer bowl.
Never put solid fat directly into the deep fryer bowl or fryer basket as this will lead
to deterioration of the appliance.
Do not mix different types of oil. Never add water to the oil or fat.
Do not overfill the basket, never exceed the maximum capacity.
Oils to use: For best results we recommend using a good quality blended vegetable
oil. If using Sunflower oil ensure the oil is changed after every 5 uses.
Oils which should NOT be used under any circumstances and may cause
overflowing/smoking/risk of fire are: ground nut oil, soya oil, olive oil, lard or
dripping.
If you have a removable anti-odour filter, change it after every 10 - 15 uses (foam
filter) or after 30 - 40 uses (cartridge with saturation indicator), or 80 uses (carbon
6
filter).
Some models are equipped with a permanent metallic filter, which does not need
to be changed.
No matter what the recipe, whether preparing fresh or frozen food, it must be
perfectly dry. Dry the food thoroughly with paper kitchen towel or a clean tea towel
before frying. This will prevent the oil from splattering and/or overflowing, will
extend the life of the oil and give crispier results.
Recommendations
Limit the cooking temperature to 190°C, especially for potatoes.
Use the basket for chips.
Control the cooking: Do not eat burnt food.
Clean your oil after every use to avoid burnt crumbs and change it after every 8 to
10 uses (after every 5 uses if using Sunflower oil). Do not pour used oil/fat into the
sink.
Leave it to cool and throw it away with household waste - according to the local
community regulations.
Store your fresh potatoes in a room above 8°C.
For best results and fast cooking, we recommend
that you limit the quantity of chips to 1/2 basket per frying.
For larger quantities of food or potatoes the temperature of the oil drops very fast
just after having lowered the basket. This lowers the oil temperature considerably
and it is normal for the temperature to take a while to return to 190°C.
• Take great care when handling the food and use tongs.
Gradually place the food in the hot oil, submerging it an inch at a time to prevent
it from sinking straightaway and any oil overflowing. Always fry fresh made chips
twice: A first fry at 160°C and a second fry at 190°C.
Environment protection first!
Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be recycled.
When you decide to replace your appliance, leave at a local civic waste
collection point.
