How to use

Place the fryer on a stable, heat-resistant surface and fill the oil container up to the indicated level, leaving room for food to be added. Plug in the unit and use the rotary control to set the desired frying temperature according to the recipe or food type. Allow the oil to preheat until it reaches the selected temperature, then lower the filled basket into the oil carefully to avoid splashing. Monitor the cooking process and, when finished, lift the basket to drain excess oil before transferring food to absorbent paper. Turn off and unplug the fryer and allow oil and components to cool before cleaning or storage.

Usage recommendations

Use oils with a suitable smoke point for deep frying and avoid overfilling the basket to ensure even cooking. Regularly filter or replace oil to maintain food quality and clean removable parts after each use to prevent residue buildup. Allow the appliance to cool completely before handling removable components for cleaning.
