ATTENTION:
Verify that you have fitted the control panel with the heating element in the
correct manner. If the panel is not slid into the guides correctly then the
safeguard will be activated; if this occurs it will not be possible to switch on the
appliance.
• Verify that the appliance is not connected to the power supply before you clean it.
• Never use corrosive or scouring cleaning agents or sharp objects (such as knives or hard brushes) to
clean the appliance.
• Never immerse the heating element (11) unit in water or another liquid and never place it under flowing
water.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - Replacing the oil or fat
The quality of the oil or fat deteriorates every time you use the deep fryer. For this reason you will need to
replace the oil or fat at regular intervals. Topping up the oil or fat will not improve the quality.Use good quality
oil or (liquid) fat.
ATTENTION: Never using solid fats (blocks)
ATTENTION: Only use oil or liquid fats specifically suitable for frying
Replace the oil or fat when:
• it becomes darker in colour;
• it becomes thicker in consistency;
• small air bubbles are seen that take a long time to disappear; in new, fresh fat the air bubbles are large
and they also disappear rapidly;
• the fried food has an unpleasant or strange taste or smell;
• the appliance emits more smoke than usual.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - Replacing the filters
The disposable filters are intended to reduce the smell of frying
when using the appliance. They become less effective over the
course of time, and for this reason they need to be replaced at
regular intervals.
1. Remove the ventilation cover.
2. Remove the filters.
3. Fit new filters.
4. Fit the ventilation cover back.
