Before removing oil from your fryer always switch off, unplug and allow the oil to cool
completely.
You will need a slotted spoon, a suitable tray or large plate, kitchen paper, a funnel or jug with a
pouring lip, muslin (if reusing the oil), and the original oil bottle you saved earlier!
If you've thrown it away, any suitable sized bottle with a lid will do.
• Using a slotted spoon, skim off any food scraps floating on the surface of the oil.
• Remove the basket from the fryer (if used) and place on kitchen paper to drain.
Line the drip tray with kitchen paper.
• Then, carefully, and with the appliance unplugged, remove the control unit as described on the part
'To Disassemble Before Cleaning', and place the element on the drip tray.
• Next, place the oil bottle in the sink, remove its cap and place the funnel in the top. If you wish to
reuse the oil, line the funnel with a piece of muslin to act as a filter.
• With the rounded edge of the fryer facing away from you, grip the rim of the removable frying bowl
with both hands and carefully lift it out and clear of the body. Take it over to the sink and pour the oil
from the rounded end of the bowl slowly into the bottle through the funnel. Alternatively, pour the oil
into a jug with a pouring lip and use this to transfer the oil into the bottle.
• When all the oil has been poured into the bottle, remove the funnel (discard the muslin, if used),
and replace the bottle cap. The oil
• You can now clean the fryer—see part "cleaning & maintenance"
Always dispose of the oil in an environmentally safe way. Never pour the oil into drains. Contact your
recycling centre for advice on the disposal of the oil
can now either be stored for reuse, or discarded safely and cleanly.
