5.3.2 Maintenance
FAGOR INDUSTRIAL recommends a service of all the operating components of the fry-top at least
once a year to check their condition and the correct operation of the appliance. This service must be
carried out by an OFFICIAL AND/OR AUTHORISED TECHNICAL SERVICE.
The replacement of any functional component that may affect the safety of either the appliance or
the user should be performed by an OFFICIAL AND/OR AUTHORISED TECHNICAL SERVICE,
using the appropriate original spare parts.
Always clean the machine correctly to prolong the service life of the machine.

Remove any waste from the machine and the grease collection drawer at the end of each
day.

Do not use abrasive, corrosive or acid products, chlorine-based detergents, solvents or
petrol derivatives to clean the machine.

Do not use pressurised water to clean the machine.
 The hotplate should be cleaned at regular intervals.
Tips for cleaning the hotplate of your fry-top:

Hard chrome hotplate
o
While the hotplate is still hot, block the grease collection hole and pour on ice. Next
using a special spatula, remove any traces of dirt around the grease collection
opening. Pay special attention to ensure that the grease collection drawer does not
overflow.

Iron hotplate
o
Rub the surface of the hotplate with vinegar, lemon or any natural degreaser.

Once the hotplate has been cleaned, the whole surface should be dried. To ensure the
hotplate is thoroughly dry, turn on the fry-top.

To prevent the iron hotplates from rusting, the surface should be rubbed with a cloth
moistened with olive oil. This is not necessary but is recommendable for the Hard Chrome
hotplates.

If the machine is kept out of service for a long period of time (holidays, temporary closure,…), please
observe the following:

Close the gas supply.

Clean the machine and the adjacent areas thoroughly.

Sprinkle a thin layer of edible oil on the stainless steel surfaces.
