RESET the Hi-limiter (thermal cut-out)
Please note that the RESET button is located at the back of the detachable rear support (4) with a protective cap (see picture) to avoid overheat.

  • Unplug the appliance from the electrical outlet first.
  • Allow the appliance to completely cool down.
  • Unscrew the black protective cap of the RESET button.
  • Press the RESET button of the  Hi-limiter(thermal cut-out). You should hear a click sound.
  • Screw back the protective cap on the RESET button.

Frying tips

  • Only use liquid frying oil (preferably) or fat.
  • The recommended temperature for frying chips and snacks is 175°C.
  • Heat the oil slowly. Preferably in 3 steps for example first at 100°C, then from 100-140°Cand later from 140°C to 175°C with 15minutes breaks between steps.
  • Remove ice and crumbs from frozen foods.
  • Do not fry too much at one time. This can cause the oil or fat to cool down too much. Cooled-down oil/fat does not properly sear the surface of the food so that more fat will be absorbed. The ideal proportion of frozen products to frying oil/fat is 1:10 maximum.
  • When used intensively, crumbs and other debris should be filtered out of the oil/fat.
  • Replace oil or fat in time. Use test strips or test equipment regularly to track when oil/fat should be replaced.
  • If oil or fat starts to foam, smoke or gets too viscous you should replace it. Also, replace the oil/fat when it has a strong smell or taste.

After use

  • Switch OFF the appliance by pressing the main switch (1) to the “0” position and unplug the appliance.
  • Remove the frying grid (7) from the oil container(5). This avoids the frying grid (7) becoming stuck in the solidified fat.
  • Overturn the frying grid holder (8) & place it on the top of oil container (5) with 4 raised stoppers (see picture) in the right position.
