Cleaning
Cleaning the fryer
• You may store the oil in the fryer, or in a separate airtight container.
• Do not pour used oil/fat into the sink. Leave it to cool, and throw it away
with household waste-according to the local community regulations.
• If you use solid shortening, we advise you to store it separately from
the fryer.
• Crumbs that break away from foods tend to burn and alter the quality
of the oil more rapidly. Over time, this increases the risk of catching fire.
• Always unplug your fryer and leave it to cool completely before cleaning
it (approx. 2 hours).
• Remove the lid, the basket and handle and the control unit.
• The lid, the bowl and the frying basket are dishwasher safe –
fig. 3
- or
can be immersed in soapy water.
• Clean the housing, the control unit and the heating element with a
damp cloth.
• Ensure all components are dry before placing them back inside the
fryer –
fig.6
.
• Put the lid on the fryer for clean storage.
Reset function
• Your appliance is equipped with an overheating security feature located
in the back of the control unit.
• If you use your fryer without oil the safety cut-off is activated and the
appliance will shut off automatically.
• In this case, unplug the appliance and let it cool (about 15 minutes).
• After the bowl has been filled with oil, plug the appliance in. Then press
the safety cut-off RESET button with a toothpick or similar non-metallic
object –
fig.14
.
• If the problem with the safety cut-off persists, please contact our
Helpline (see details on page 12).
Let the fryer with the oil in
the removable bowl cool
completely before cleaning
(approx. 2 hours).
We recommend changing
the oil/fat after a
maximum of 8 to 10
uses-
fig.13
. If using
sunflower oil, ensure the
oil is changed after every
5 uses.
Never immerse the
control unit in water
and never wash it under
running water. Never
wash the housing and
the control unit in the
dishwasher-
fig.4
. Do
not store your deep
fryer outside. Do not use
aggressive or abrasive
cleaning products.
