Tips:
- Use a maximum of 200 grams of French fries per liter of oil.
- With deep-freeze products, use a maximum of 100 grams because they quickly cool off. Shake deep-freeze products above the sink to remove excess ice.
- When using fries made from fresh potatoes: dry the fries after washing so that no water will go into the oil. Deep-fry the fries in 2 stages. The first stage (pre-frying): 5 to 10 minutes at 170 degrees C°. The second stage (final frying) is 2 to 4 minutes at 190 degrees C°. Drain well.
- Before you use the deep fryer, it must be filled with the required amount of oil or fat.
- Never use the deep fryer without oil, this could damage the unit.
- Never move the deep fryer during use. The oil becomes very hot and you can get burned. Wait to move the deep fryer until the oil has cooled off.
- This deep fryer is protected with a thermal safety device, which switches the machine off automatically if it overheats. Allow the unit to cool down completely before starting again.
