Safety
Thermal safety cut-out
This appliance is equipped with a thermal safety cut-out that switches off the appliance if it
overheats.
This may happen if there is not enough oil or fat in the fryer or if blocks of solid fat are melted in
the fryer, which prevents the heating element from being able to give off its heat.
Take the following measures if the fryer does not work anymore:
1 Unplug the appliance.
2 Let the oil or fat cool down.
3 Carefully press the reset button at the front of the fryer, above the top right-hand corner of
the display, with a very small screwdriver (Fig. 2).
Now the appliance is ready for use again.
Note: If the appliance still does not work after you have reset it, go to your Philips dealer or a service
centre authorised by Philips.
Preparing for use
1
Put the appliance on a horizontal, even and stable surface out of the reach of children.
2 Take the entire cord from the cord storage compartment (Fig. 3).
3 Fill the fryer with oil, liquid fat or melted solid fat up to the top indication mark on the inside
of the inner bowl (see section ‘Oil and fat’ for instructions on how to use solid fat) (Fig. 4).
Do not switch on the appliance before you have lled it with oil or fat.
Oil and fat
Never mix different types of oil or fat and never add fresh oil or fat to used oil or fat.
We advise you to use frying oil or liquid frying fat, preferably vegetable oil or fat that is rich in
unsaturated fats (e.g. linoleic acid), such as soy oil, peanut oil, maize oil or sunower oil.
Only use types of oil or fat that are suitable for deep frying and that contain an antifoam agent. You
can nd this information on the package or label of the oil or fat.
