Also flush through the oil drain tube with hot water and washing up liquid, rinse with hot water, then dry carefully when this has been completed. [. . . ] 3) and close the lid by pressing lightly down upon it until the hooks click. Always close the lid before lowering the basket in order to avoid hot oil from splashing out. Set thermostat knob "U" to the required temperature (fig. 4). When the temperature set has been reached, signal lamp "T" will switch off. As soon as the signal lamp switches off, immerse the basket in the oil, lowering the handle slowly after sliding the handle's slider back (C). It is completely normal for a considerable amount of very hot steam to rise out of filter cover "F" immediately after this. At the start of cooking, immediately after the food has been immersed in the oil, the internal wall of viewing window "E" (where present) will steam up, before progressively clearing. It is normal for drops of condensation to form around the basket handle while the appliance is working. IN THE MODELS FITTED WITH THE ELECTRONIC MINUTE TIMER Set the cooking time by pressing key "O"; display "N" will show the minutes set. The figures will begin flashing immediately afterwards, signifying that the cooking time has started. In the event of error, the new cooking time can be set by keeping the key pressed down for more than 2 seconds. The minute timer will show the end of the cooking time with two series of beeps at an interval of about 20 seconds. In order to switch off the audible alarm you only need press minute timer button "O". Replacing the minute timer battery Remove the minute timer from its compartment (fig. 7) placed on the back in an anticlockwise direction until it is released. If the appliance is to be replaced or thrown away, the battery must be removed and disposed of in accordance with the current laws as it represents an environmental hazard. AFTER FRYING When the cooking time runs out raise the basket and check if the food has reached the required golden colour. In the models fitted with a viewing window this check can be carried out by looking through the window without opening the lid. If you consider the cooking to be finished, switch off the appliance by turning the thermostat 8 GB 1-08-2002 16:35 Pagina 9 knob to the "OFF" position until you hear the click of the internal switch. Allow the excess oil to drip off by leaving the basket in the deep fryer in the raised position. potatoes) raise the basket at the end of the first phase and wait for the signal lamp to switch off again. Then immerse the basket back in the oil for a second time (see enclosed tables). FILTERING THE OIL OR FAT We recommend that you carry out this procedure each time you have finished frying especially when the food has been breaded or floured. The food particles tend to burn if they remain in the liquid thus causing much quicker deterioration of the oil or fat. To avoid the appliance falling when filtering the oil, keep the lid in the appliance in the open position and be careful that feet "M" are always inside the area of the work surface (fig. [. . . ] 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 must be removed before cooking. Then immerse the basket very slowly into the frying oil to avoid the oil reboiling. The cooking times are approximate and must be varied according to the initial temperature of the food which is to be fried and according to the temperature recommended by the frozen food producer.
