Bravetti EP67 Manual Do Utilizador

Warning: Do not put solid shortening in the oil container (#3) or the frying basket (#14).

• If using solid vegetable shortening, melt it first in a separate pan and then very carefully 

pour the melted fat into the oil container (#3).

• Previously used solid vegetable shortening which has curdled and hardened in the oil 

container (#3) should be removed from the oil container and melted in a separate pan
before reusing.

Warning: If you try to melt the solidified fat in the oil container (#3), there is a risk of warm 

melted fat suddenly sputtering from below through the still solid top layer of fat.  
Therefore use only the following procedure:

• Make sure the fat is at room temperature.  If the fat is very cold, there is a greater risk of 

splashing.

• Using a fork, carefully make some holes in the fat.  Make sure the lid is securely closed

while fat is melting.  Set temperature dial (#8) to 320° F (160 °C).

Warning: Never plug in the Deep Fryer before filling with oil to specified level.  Always make

sure control panel (#5) is securely in place in the body (#1) and the heating element                 
(#13) is inside the oil in the container before plugging in.

• Use blended vegetable oil, pure corn oil or canola (rapeseed) oil.  Do not use olive oil, 

margarine, lard or drippings. 

• The oil level must always be maintained between the minimum (15 cups/3.75 liters) and the 

maximum (18 cups/4.5 liters) levels marked inside the oil container (#3).  Check the oil level 
before each use.  For best results, keep the oil close to the maximum level (18 cups/4.5 liters).

• Never mix different oils and fats together.  Do not mix old and new oil.
