Cleaning and heating up for
the first time
Before using the fryer for the first time
clean it as follows:
^
Fill the oil reservoir with approx. 4
litres of water and add a little
washing up liquid. Ensure that the
water level is not higher than the
maximum level indicator which is
marked at the back of the reservoir.
^
Turn the control in a clockwise
direction to 130 °C and bring the wa-
ter to the boil.
^
When the water has started to boil,
switch off the fryer by turning the
control back anti-clockwise to "0".
Empty the water through the drain
tap into a heat resistant container
(see "After frying").
^
Rinse the oil reservoir out with hot
water.
^
Close the drain tap, raise the heating
element and dry the reservoir with a
clean cloth.
^
Clean all other appliance surfaces
with a damp cloth only, and then wipe
dry.
Metal components have a protective
coating which may give off a slight
smell when heated up for the first time.
The smell and any vapours will
dissipate after a short time and do not
indicate a faulty connection or
appliance.
