Filtering the oil
Let the fryer with the oil in the removable bowl cool completely (2 hours), before filtering
the oil.
We recommend changing the oil/fat after a maximum of 8 to 10 uses.
If using sunflower oil, ensure the oil is changed after every 5 uses.
If you hear clapping sounds during the heating of the oil, it means that water is in the oil.
Remove it and pour new oil.
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. For this reason, filter the oil
regularly.
Cleaning the fryer
Always unplug your fryer and leave it to cool completely before cleaning it
(approx. 2 hours).
The bowl and the frying basket are dishwasher safe or can be immersed in soapy water.
Clean the lid, 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.
Put the lid on the fryer for clean storage.
Never immerse the control unit in water and never wash it under running water.
Never wash the lid, the housing and the control unit in the dishwasher.
Do not store your deep fryer outside.
Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning products.
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.
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.
If the problem with the safety cut-off persists, please contact our Helpline (see details on
page 10).
