CARE AND CLEANING
Switch off and unplug the Compact Fryer from the socket before cleaning and when not in use.
Always allow the Compact Fryer to cool down completely before cleaning.
• Before the first use and after every use, clean each part thoroughly.
• Never immerse the base unit in water or any other liquid. To clean the outside of the base unit, wipe
with a clean damp cloth and dry before storing.
• Wipe the inside of the lid and tank with a cloth rinsed in warm soapy water, rinse with a clean cloth
and dry thoroughly.
• Wash the basket in hot, soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. The basket and basket handle are
dishwasher safe.
• Check all parts before reassembling.
• Do not use steel wool, or abrasive cleaners or materials.
• Do not attempt to empty the oil when the oil or machine is still hot. Cool completely before moving,
tip and pour to empty.
• Pour the used oil into a suitable container for disposal.
TO CLEAN THE LID
Open the lid so it is half open. Firmly pull the lid
to the right, the left hand side of the metal bar
should come out of the hinge on the base unit.
Free the rest of the bar by then firmly pulling the
lid to the left. The lid will come off the base unit.
Clean the lid in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry.
Holding the lid at the same angle (halfway open)
push the bar back into the hinge to reattach.
TO CLEAN THE FILTER
The filter does not require regular cleaning. In case you do need to clean it, use a screwdriver to
remove the four screws on each corner of the inside of the lid, remove the inside cover and the filter.
Wash both parts in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry. Replace the parts and screw back into place.
Store the Compact Fryer with the power cable loosely coiled. Never wrap it tightly around the
base unit.
