21 The oil level must always be between the Min. and Max. markings.
22 Do not overload the basket. For safety reasons never exceed the maximum quantity.
23 Never operate your fryer without any oil or fat.
24 The cooking times are given as guidelines only.
25 The oil must be filtered regularly and changed after 8 to 12 uses.
26 Do not mix different types of fat or oils.
27 If you use solid vegetable shortening, cut it into pieces and melt it over low heat in a separate
pot beforehand, then slowly pour it into the deep fryer pot. Never pour shortening directly into
the deep fryer pot or basket, as this will lead to deterioration of the appliance.

Polarization instructions
If this appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other), it is to reduce the risk of electric shock. This
plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
Short Cord instructions
Do not use with an extension cord ; a short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks resulting from being
tangled in, or tripping over, a long cord.
The cord is equipped with a detachable magnetic connector. The magnetic connector should be attached directly to
the fryer. THIS SHOULD BE DONE PRIOR TO PLUGGING THE CORD INTO THE WALL OUTLET.
Protection of the environment
Your appliance contains valuable materials which can be recovered or recycled.
When you decide to replace your appliance, leave it at a local civic waste collection point.
