∙ The appliance may only be used
by persons with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or
lacking experience and knowledge,
if they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning the use of
the appliance and fully understand
all dangers and safety precautions
involved.
∙ Children must not be permitted to
play with the appliance.
∙ Children must not be permitted
to carry out any cleaning or
maintenance work on the appliance
unless they are supervised.
∙ The appliance and its power cord
must be kept well away from children
under 8 at all times.
∙ Caution: Keep any packaging materials
well away from children – such materials
are a potential source of danger, e.g. of
suffocation.
∙ Do not let the deep fryer heat up
without oil/fat.
∙ Do not leave the deep fryer unattended
while in use.
∙ Every time the appliance is used, the
main body including the power cord as
well as any attachment fi tted should
be checked thoroughly for any defects.
Should the appliance, for instance, have
been dropped onto a hard surface, or if
excessive force has been used to pull the
power cord, it must no longer be used:
even invisible damage may have adverse
effects on the operational safety of the
appliance.
∙ To prevent hot oil from spilling out, use
the handles to place the appliance on a
stable, heat-resistant work surface (which
is impervious to splashes and stains and
has suffi cient surrounding space).
∙ Do not place the appliance underneath
any wall-cupboards or hanging objects,
nor directly against a wall or in a corner.
∙ Ensure that no infl ammable materials are
stored in the vicinity.
∙ Do not melt solidifi ed fat in an empty
fryer: the heating element will not be fully
submerged and may therefore overheat,
possibly causing the fat to ignite at
contact.
∙ Oil/fat that has been used many times
before may ignite when overheated. If
this occurs, remove the plug from the wall
socket and place the lid on the appliance
in order to smother the fl ames.
Never pour water into hot or burning
oil/fat.
∙ Never carry or move the appliance when
it is hot, e.g. during or immediately after
use (because of the danger of tripping).
Exercise extreme caution: hot oil/fat can
cause severe burns.
∙ Caution: Some parts of the appliance
become hot during operation, and
dangerously hot steam may be emitted
from the lid.
∙ Do not touch hot oil/fat with your fi ngers.
∙ Do not insert any plastic cutlery into the
hot oil/fat. Do not pour hot oil/fat into
plastic containers.
∙ Do not connect the appliance to
the power supply without the frying
container inserted. Do not, under any
circumstances, connect the heating
