User manual SILVERCREST KH 2001 STAINLESS STEEL DEEP-FRYER

[. . . ] Carefully pat all foodstuffs dry before placing them in the deep fryer. The more ice there is on the foodstuff, the more the hot oil or fat will splatter. Arrange for defective power plugs and/or cables to be replaced at once by qualified technicians or our Customer Service Department. Ensure that the power cable never becomes wet or moist during operation. [. . . ] Tip the fried food into a bowl or a sieve (lined with absorbent kitchen paper!) If you do not use the deep fryer regularly it is recommended that, after cooling, the oil or liquified fat is poured into a well sealed container and stored in the refrigerator or a cool storeroom. Fill the container through a sieve, in order to remove any food particles from the oil or fat. Solid fats must still be in a liquid state so that they can be poured. Therefore pay heed to the signal tone from the timer switch, so as to avoid spoiling the food being fried. To avoid both a splattering of the fats and the appliance becoming too hot, please observe the following precautionary measures: · If you are using fresh fats, first slowly melt the blocks of fat under low heat in a normal pan. When this has been done, insert the power plug into a socket and switch the deep fryer on. After use, store the deep fryer with the solidified fat at room temperatures. Should the fat become too cold, it could cause splattering on remelting!To avoid this, poke a few holes into the solidified fat with a wooden or plastic spatula. To melt the fat, switch the appliance on with the On/Off switch 0 and then adjust the temperature regulator 8 to 130°C. Solid fats must still be in a liquid state so that they can be poured. Carefully remove the stainless steel container 4 with the oil or fat from the deep fryer.
