OPERATING THE APPLIANCE
1. Place the appliance on astable, even and clean surface. Pull on the handle
A5 to slide the removable pan A6 with the basket A7 out of the appliance.
Place the food that you wish to process by heat into the basket A7. When
putting in the food, do not exceed the MAX mark on the removable basket
A7. To ensure optimal results, adhere to the minimum and maximum food
amount indicated in the table Recommended frying times.
Attention:
Never place the food directly in the pan A6.
2. Slide the removable pan A6 with the filled basket A7 back into the
appliance and connect the power cord to apower socket.
3. Set the temperature control dial A2 to the desired temperature and the
timer A4 to the operating time. Setting the timer A4 will start the appliance
and both indicator lights A3 and A8 will turn on. The lit indicator lights
show that the appliance is in operation and the heating element A9 is
heating up. When the set temperature is reached, the indicator light A8 will
turn off. During operation, the heating indicator light A3 will intermittently
turn on and off. This signalises that the set temperature is being maintained.
Excess fat from the food is drained into the pan A6.
Note:
To set the correct temperature and time, you may refer to the table
Recommended frying times.
4. Certain foods may require preheating the appliance. This takes
approximately 3 to 4 minutes. Set the temperature control dial A2 to the
desired temperature and set the timer A4 to 4 minutes. Wait until the
indicator light A8 turns off. This signalises that the desired temperature has
been reached. Then, carefully slide the pan A6 with the basket A7 out and
place it on aheat-resistant surface. Be especially careful not to touch the hot
surface. Fill the basket A7 with food. Slide the removable pan A6 with the
filled basket A7 back into the appliance and set the operating time.
5. It is appropriate to stir certain types of food during the cooking process.
Slide the pan A6 out of the appliance and place it on a heat-resistant
surface. For safety reasons, during this time, the heating element A9 is
turned off but the timer A4 continues to countdown to the end of the
operating time. Be especially careful not to touch the hot surface or not to
scald yourself on the steam that is released from the food. Press the button
on the handle A5 (see fig. B) to release the removable basket A7, lift it up
and hold above the pan A6. Be careful of hot fat or juices that may drip
off certain foods. Carefully shake it from side to side to stir the food and
then put it back into the pan A6. For the basket A7 to be properly seated
in the pan A6, it is necessary for the handle A5 to slide back into place. This
is indicated by aclick. Slide the pan A6 with the basket A7 back into the
appliance. This will resume the operation of the heating element A9.
6. To heat up food, set the temperature to 150 °C and the timer A4 to
10 minutes.
7. At the end of the set time a sound is made and the appliance stops
automatically. To stop the appliance prematurely, set the timer A4 to
position 0.
8. When the appliance has stopped, slide the pan A6 out. Press the button
on the handle A5 (see fig. B) to release the removable basket A7, lift it up
and empty out its contents. Silicone or wooden kitchen utensils may also be
used for removing food from the basket A7. To prevent damaging the non-
stick surface treatment of the removable basket A7, we do not recommend
using metal kitchen utensils
9. When you have finished using it, make sure that the appliance is turned
off. Disconnect it from the power socket, allow it to cool down, and clean
it out according to the instructions contained in the chapter Cleaning and
maintenance.
