Cleaning & Storage
Clean the appliance after each use. The Basket and
Fry Tray are coated with a special nonstick surface.
Never use abrasive cleaning materials or utensils on
these surfaces.
1.
Remove the Power Cable from the electrical
outlet and be certain the appliance is thoroughly
cooled before cleaning.
2.
Wipe the outside of the appliance with a warm,
moist cloth and mild detergent.
3.
Clean the Basket and Fry Tray, with hot water, a
mild detergent, and a nonabrasive sponge. The
Fry Tray is dishwasher safe, but hand-washing is
recommended. For difficult-to-remove food, soak
in hot, soapy water for 10 minutes.
4.
NOTE: If the Silicone Bumpers on the Fry Tray
need to be cleaned, they can be removed and
reattached. To remove the bumpers, locate
the capped end of the bumper and push the
capped end off of the Fry Tray. There will be
some resistance, but keep pushing until the
bumper slide off of the Fry Tray. To reattach the
bumper, slide each bumper onto the slot on the
Fry Tray.
5.
Clean the inside of the appliance with hot water, a
mild detergent, and a nonabrasive sponge.
6.
If necessary, remove unwanted food residue from
the heating element with a soft cleaning brush.
7.
Rinse the appliance with a clean, damp cloth. Use a
clean, dry cloth to dry the appliance interior. Do not
leave standing water in the appliance.
