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.
Reinstall the detachable back support on the support.

Deep frying tips

Only use liquid frying oil (preferably) or fat.
The recommended temperature for frying chips and snacks is 175°C max.
Heat the oil slowly. Preferably in 3 steps for example first at 100°C, then from 100-140°C and later from 140°C to 175°C with 15 minute breaksbetween steps.
Remove ice and crumbs from frozen foods.
Do not deep-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.

Solid Fat

If you use against our advice solid fat anyway: heat the oil slowly in the lowest position until melted. When the fat has melted you can set theproper frying temperature.
When using solid fat, allow the blocks of fat to melt slowly on a moderate heat in a normal frying pan. Carefully pour the melted fat into the deep fat fryer. Plug in the mains plug and switch on the deep fat fryer.
Remove the deep frying basket after use from the fat. This prevents the basket becoming stuck in the solidified fat.

After use

Turn off the appliance by pressing the ON/OFF icon and removing the plug from the socket.
Remove the basket from the oil container. This avoids the basket becoming stuck in the solidified fat.
Put the lid on the deep fryer, so that the fat does not age.
