Resumen del manual
Always make sure control panel (#5) is securely in place in the body (#1) and the heating element (#13) is inside the oil in the container before plugging in. Important: Ensure the control panel (#5) is fitted correctly to the main unit otherwise the unit will not function. This is not a defect. This product is fitted with a safety switch toprevent the unit from turning on accidentally. Pre-Heating Warning: Never plug in the Deep Fryer before filling with oil. (See instructions in section 2.) Always unplug the appliance when not in use. • Make sure the oil level in the oil container (#3) is between the “minimum” and “maximum” lines inside the oil container (#3). • The frying basket (#14) should NOT be immersed in the oil during the pre-heating. • Replace the lid cover (# 10). • Plug the appliance into a 120-volt outlet. • Turn the on/off switch (#6) to the “on” position. • Select the required temperature on the temperature setting dial (#8). Fig. 3 Fig. 3 Warning: In order to avoid injury or burns, never touch any metal parts on the deep fryer because they may be hot. • Pre heating the oil will take up to 15 minutes depending on the temperature selected. •The temperature indicator light (# 7) will come on when the temperature is set and the deep fryer is “on” showing that the heating element is in operation. This light goes off when the set temperature is reached. Fig. 4 The temperature light may go on and off several times during frying. This indicates that the temperature is being thermostatically maintained. Fig. 4 On/Off Switch Temperature Indicator Light 8 Filling the Frying Basket • Do not fill the frying basket (#14) when it is immersed in oil. • Place the food in the frying basket (# 14). Do not overfill it and never exceed the maximum quantities. For optimum results and shorter frying time, basket should be only 1/2 full. • The basket has approximately 1 lb. food capacity. It will hold 3-4 average size pieces of chicken. • Do not fill the basket higher than the “MAX” line on the basket with frozen food. Warning: When frying foods, remove the frying basket (#14) from the deep fryer before fillingwith frozen food because oil will spatter and cause burns. IMPORTANT: When frying frozen foods such as French Fries, you should not exceed 1 Lb. (454 gr.) For healthy, crispy results limit quantity to 3/4 Lb. (350 gr.) or less. Frying Food Warning: To avoid injury or burns, do not touch any metal parts on the deep fryer because they may be hot. • Always use the frying basket (#14) to fry food. • Always close the lid (#10) during frying. • When the oil is pre-heated, temperature indicator light (#7) will go off to indicate desired temperature is reached. • Slowly lower the frying basket (#14) into the hot oil. Lowering the frying basket too quickly can result in the oil overflowing and splashing. • Replace the lid carefully. • It is normal for steam to escape through the sides of the lid while frying. • Avoid standing too close to the deep fryer while it is working. Warning: When opening the lid cover (#10) after frying, lift up the lid slightly, then wait to allow steam to escape before opening the lid completely. Keep face away from unit to avoid burns caused by escaping steam. 8 5. At the End of Cooking 5. At the End of Cooking Warning: When you have finished frying, always turn the temperature setting dial (#8) to lowest position and unplug the deep fryer. To avoid injury or burns, do not touch any metal surfaces as they may be hot. • Set temperature setting dial (#8) to lowest position, (turn fully counter-clockwise.) • Turn “On/Off” switch (#6) to “Off” position. • Unplug the main cord from the wall socket. • Lift up the lid cover (# 10) slowly and wait to allow steam to escape before opening the lid cover (#10) completely. • Lift up the frying basket (# 14) by the handle (#15). Place it on the basket rest (#11) and allow the food to drain for a minute. • Once the oil has drained from the frying basket (#14), the basket may be lifted off and the food served. Warning: Always let the deep fryer cool completely (approximately 2 hours) before cleaning or storing. Never carry or move the deep fryer with hot oil inside. 10 6. Frying Tips 6. Frying Tips • Do not mix different oils or new and old oil together. • Replace oil regularly. In general, oil will be tainted fast when frying food containing a lot of protein, (such as poultry, meat and fish). When oil is used mainly to fry potatoes and is filtered after each use, it can be used up to 8 to 10 times, but do not use the same oil for more than 6 months. • Always replace all oil as soon as it starts foaming when heated or when color becomes dark or when it has a rancid smell or taste or becomes syrupy. • Make sure that the food to be fried is dry. • Remove loose ice from frozen food before frying. • To cook evenly, pieces should be the same size and thickness. • Thicker pieces will take longer to cook. Important: When frying frozen food such as French Fries, ...
