PROBLEMS AND SOLUTIONS
Problems and possible causes Solutions
The deep fryer does not work.
The appliance is not plugged in. Plug in the appliance.
Unpleasant odor.
The oil has deteriorated. Replace the frying oil (after 8 uses max.), or more
frequently depending on the type of oil used.
The oil is unsuitable. Use a good quality blended vegetable oil.
Steam escapes from around the lid.
The lid is not closed properly. Check that the lid is properly closed and the
hinge is clean.
Food is wet or contains too much water (frozen
food). Remove any ice and dry the food thoroughly.
Lower the basket slowly.
Different types of oil have been mixed. Empty and clean the bowl. Refill the bowl with
one type of oil.
Vision through the viewing window is not clear.
Not cleaning the window often enough or
using an inappropriate cleaning method. To ensure good visibility, clean the viewing
window by wiping it with a sponge and lemon
juice. Allow the window to dry at room tempera-
ture or dry with a clean cotton cloth.
The frying oil overflows.
The Max. marker for filling the bowl has been
exceeded. Check the level (Max.) and remove the excess
oil after the fryer is cool.
The frying basket has been overfilled with food. Check that the basket is not too full.
Food is wet or contains too much water (i.e.
frozen food). Remove any ice and dry the food thoroughly
before frying.
Wrong oil or different types of oil have been
mixed. Empty and clean the bowl. Refill the bowl with
one type of oil.
Unsuitable oil has been used. Use a good quality blended vegetable oil.
Food does not become golden and remains soft.
Pieces are too thick and contain too much
water. Experiment by lengthening the cooking time or
by cutting food smaller and thinner.
Too much food is being cooked at the same
time and the cooking oil is no longer at the
right temperature. Respect the recommended quantities of food.
The temperature of the frying oil may not be
high enough: the temperature is set incorrectly. Set the thermostat selector to the
recommended temperature.
