4/ CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
A. Disassembling before cleaning
• Remove the lid and frying basket.
• Carefully remove the control unit and element from the body. To do this, hold the control unit with
one hand whilst holding the body with the other. Simply lift the control unit upwards until it clears
the body.
• Remove the frying bowl. Grip the rim of the frying bowl with both hands and lift clear of the body.
B. Cleaning your fryer
Always unplug your fryer and allow the oil and appliance to cool completely before cleaning it.
NEVER immerse the control unit, cord set or plug in water or any other liquid.
Never use harsh abrasive cleaners or cleaning materials.
Cleaning the removable frying bowl, frying basket and lid:
These parts can be washing with a dishwasher.
For hand wash: Remove any food fragment from the frying bowl and frying basket using kitchen
paper. Wash the components by hand in warm soapy water using a cloth, sponge or brush. Dry
completely before use or storage.
Cleaning the control unit, element and body:
These parts are not dishwasher safe.
Wipe the excess oil from the element with kitchen paper (take care not to damage the wires
connected to the heating element). Wipe over the control unit and body with a clean, slightly damp
cloth and dry.
C. To reassemble after cleaning
• Place the body on a stable, secure, dry and level surface.
• Holding the frying bowl rim at both sides lower the bowl into
the body.
• Reconnect the control unit with the body. The control
panel/heating element has two runners that must be fitted into
corresponding guides in the fryer body.
• Line up the two runners with the guides in the fryer body
(figure A).
• Slide the control panel/heating element assembly downwards
into the guides (figure B) until the assembly is fully lowered
into the slots and will go no further.
Note: The fryer will not function if the control unit is not
attached to the body.
• If using, lift the handle of the frying basket upwards, then back
into its locked position. Make sure the handle is securely
attached to the basket.
• To store, replace the basket, fold down the handle and replace the lid.
Always hand wash.
