Useful hints for use

• Always remove the food remaining in the oil. Change
the oil after using it 8-10 times Always remove the
food remaining in the oil. Change the oil after using
it 8-10 times.
• Deep frying fat must be capable of being heated
to high temperatures. Use high quality frying oil or
frying grease. Do not use margarine, olive oil or but-
ter: they are not fi t for frying, because they start to
smoke already at low temperatures.
• We recommend the use of liquid frying oil.
NOTE...
... if you would like to use fat!
• If you use fat, please divide it up into small pieces.
• Turn the thermostat to a low temperature and add
the pieces slowly.
• Once the fat has melted and the correct oil level is
reached you can set the desired temperature on the
thermostat.
Fondue Select a medium setting
Wok Select a high setting
• Rub dry humid foods with a cloth before frying.
Mains Lead

tom section or the heating base.
Rotating Base
to one side of the rotating base fi rst under the main
base. Then pull the ring over the hot plate and clamp it

After use you can save space when you store the rotating
basis by folding the holders back inwards.

Fold out the individual
holders so that they are
horizontal. The round
distance pieces face
downwards and subse-
quently lie on the heating
stand. Clamp one of the
„lugs" (see illustration) on
Initial Operation of the Fondue Set
Please select a suitable non-slip base on which to place
your fondue.
• Insert the rotating base as described above. Then
insert the sauce vessels into the holders.
• Place the fondue equipment on the heating stand.
• Fill the pot with fat or oil (min. 0.5 l to max. 1.0 l).
The most suitable types of oil are frying oils or veg-
etable oil. Place the upper section on the fondue pot
so that it is correctly positioned.
• Only connect the machine to a properly installed
230 V, 50 Hz safety socket.
• Turn the device to the medium temperature range
and heat up the oil for some time. The control lamp
lights up and indicates that the device is switched on.
• With a wooden stick (e.g. shashlik spit or wooden
cooking spoon) you can test whether the correct
temperature has been reached. When this is inserted
into the oil, small air bubbles should rise up along the
wooden stick. Alternatively, you can place a piece of
the food to be fried into the hot oil.
• Place the pieces of meat on the fondue forks and
then dip them into the oil. Depending on the size of
the meat pieces, the cooking process takes between 4
and 7 minutes, i.e. the smaller the pieces of meat or
other food are, the faster they are cooked.
• Adjust the temperature with the regulator such that
the oil simmers.
The Wok
Cooking with a wok stems from Asian cuisine, the main
feature of which is that food is cooked for an extremely
short time.
It is therefore advisable to cut all the ingredients which
you need for a wok dish beforehand into „mouth-sized"
pieces (cubes/strips). This drastically reduces the cooking
time and your food will retain its fresh taste.
As the temperature of the oil in the wok is higher than
normal when food is prepared, please do not use any
butter, margarine or olive oil in the wok. The most suit-
able types of oil are frying oils or vegetable oil.
Please do not use any sharp or pointed objects when
handling the wok. The most suitable items are wooden
utensils.
Cooking with the Wok
When you have fi nished preparing all the ingredients
for your wok dish, unwind the lead completely. Turn the
temperature control as far as possible to the left. Only
connect the machine to a properly installed 230 V, 50 Hz
safety socket.
• Place some oil or stock into the wok.
• Turn the temperature control to the highest level and
preheat the wok for a few minutes.
