[. . . ] Unplug the appliance from the mains when it is not being used and before cleaning. Do not use the appliance if the power cord or plug is damaged or if the appliance is malfunctioning or it has been damaged in any way. Return the entire appliance to your nearest authorised service centre for inspection, repair or adjustment. Using parts or attachments not recommended or not provided by the appliance's manufacturer may cause injury. [. . . ] If the handle is locked correctly, it will not be possible to move it forward. ⷠIf you want to put the basket away, return the handle to the appropriate position for storage. Hold the cool-touch handle and push it forward until it is released from its position. ⷠIt is very important to lock the handle in its position before using the frying basket. BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME Read carefully all the instructions given in this leaflet. Clean the lid, the cover with the steam holes, the oil filter, the basket, the oil container and the body with hot water, a little washing-up liquid and a sponge, or wash in the dishwasher. FILLING THE OIL CONTAINER Make sure that the oil container is correctly positioned. The oil level must be kept between the minimum and maximum levels marked inside the container. For healthier, crispier food, we recommend using a mixture of vegetable and corn oil. PREHEATING Warning: For your safety, do not use the deep fryer under wall-mounted kitchen cabinets. ⷠWhen using for the first time, the deep fryer may give off a slight smell. Each time before use, check that the oil level is between the lines inside the oil container indicating maximum and minimum level. Note: Do not use the deep fryer without the oil container, oil or equivalent substance or without a minimum quantity of oil (underneath the minimum level). You can choose a temperature between 160ºC -190ºC. The red "encendida" light and the green "calentando" light will turn on. When the oil reaches the preset temperature, the green light will turn off. ⷠThe red light will always be lit while the appliance is frying, unless the deep fryer is unplugged. ⷠPlace the basket with the food to be fried in the oil container. FRYING Frying potatoes: As potatoes contain more water than other foods, you should briefly dip the basket in the oil container 4 or 5 times. Warning: Do not touch the deep fryer's metal parts as they may be hot. [. . . ] ⷠPlace the oil container as horizontally as possible in the dishwasher so that it does not impede movement of the spraying arms. STORING THE OIL The deep fryer's lid enables you to keep the oil in the appliance between one use and the next. STORING THE POWER CORD Loosely coil the power cord and place it in its storage compartment. iNSTRUCTIONS FOR STORING THE APPLIANCE · Do not store the appliance if there is oil inside the container or if it has not been washed and fully dried.
