Before frying

Before frying make sure that the oil
reservoir has been filled with enough
frying oil or fat (min. 3 litres / 3 kg, max.
4 litres / 4 kg).
Only use oil / fat which is suitable for
frying in and which can be heated to
a high temperature.
Never mix different types of Oil / fat
together.
Proceed as follows:
^ Make sure the drain tap is closed.
^ Fill the oil reservoir with oil / fat. Solid
fat should be cut up into small pieces
first.
When re-using fat which has
solidified in the reservoir, make a hole
in the solid fat as far as the element.
This allows any water which has
gathered under the fat to evaporate.
^ Turn the control to 100 °C and wait
until the fat has melted.
^ When all the fat has melted check the
level in the reservoir. This needs to be
between the minimum and maximum
level indicators at the back of the
reservoir.
