raised position. Filtering the oil or fat We recommend that you carry out this procedure each time you have finished frying as, especially when the food has been breaded or floured, the food particles tend to burn if they are left in the liquid, which causes much quicker deterioration of the oil or fat. Check that the oil is cool enough (waiting about 2 hours). fig.
fig. 14 2 1 fig. 15 is sufficiently cold (wait about 2 hours), then empty out the oil or fat as previously described in the paragraph headed “filtering the oil or fat”. Remove the lid as shown in (fig. 15). The lid is removable, to take it off, proceed as follows: push the lid back (see arrow "1" fig. 15) and at the same time, lift it up (see arrow "2" fig. 13). Do not immerse the lid in water without having first removed the filter.
• • • • • The food which is to be fried must only be immersed when the oil has reached the right temperature, i.e. when the indicator light goes off. Do not overfill the basket. This would cause the temperature of the oil to drop suddenly, resulting in fried food which is too greasy and not uniformly fried. When frying small quantities of food, the temperature of the oil must be set lower than the temperature indicated to avoid the oil boiling too violently.
Frying frozen food • Frozen foods have very low temperatures. As a result they inevitably cause a considerable drop in the temperature of the oil or fat. To achieve a good result, we advise you not to exceed the quantities recommended in the following table. • Frozen foods are often covered in ice crystals which is necessary to remove before cooking by shaking the basket safely away from the fryer. Then immerse the basket very slowly into the frying oil to avoid the oil over-boiling.
Operating faults Fault Cause Remedy The odour-eater filter is saturated. The oil has deteriorated. The cooking liquid is unsuitable Replace the filter. The oil has deteriorated and causes too much foam. You have immersed food which is not sufficiently dry in the hot oil. The basket has been immersed too quickly. The oil level in the fryer is over the maximum limit. Replace the oil or fat.
