CLEANING
Danger!
Always unplug from the mains socket before cle-
aning.
Never immerse the deep fryer in water and never place it under
running tap water.
If water gets into the appliance, it could cause electric shock.
Please note:
After leaving to cool down for about two
hours, empty the oil or fat as described in the paragraph “filtering
the oil or fat”.
Never empty the fryer by tipping or overturning it (fig. 17).
Wash the bowl, basket and lid (remove filter) in hot water and
washing up liquid.
To remove the lid (Z), push backwards and at the same time pull
upwards (see arrows “A” and “B”, fig. 18).
Important!
Never immerse the lid in water without remo-
ving the filter first.
To clean the bowl (D), proceed as follows:
• Extract the bowl from the fryer by lifting it gently (see figure
8) and wash with hot water and washing up liquid using a
soft sponge.
• The bowl and basket are dishwasher safe.
Be careful not to knock the hose as this could jeopardise cor-
rect operation.
• To replace the bowl, open the drainage hose compartment
door (R), then insert the bowl at an angle with the drainage
hose in the horizontal position and cap in place. Then close
the door.
• If the oil filter (C) in the bowl is dirty or clogged, turn anti-
clockwise, remove and clean.
Important!
To avoid damaging the non-stick surface of the
bowl, never use abrasive objects or detergents to clean the bowl.
Clean with a soft cloth and neutral detergent only.
