Possible cause
The food is very fatty.
The fryer pan (8) and the
grille (1) still have fat res-
idues from the previous
cooking process.
The chips have not been
sufficiently soaked.
The variety of potato is unsuitable.
The potatoes are too
moist.
Troubleshooting
During preparation, fat
from these extremely
greasy foods drips onto
the base of the fryer pan
(8). The fat causes a higher
temperature than usual to
develop in the fryer pan
– this does not impair the
appliance or the cooking
result.
Fat residue is burning.
Clean the fryer pan (8) and
the grille (1) after each use.
Place the chips in cold wa-
ter for around 30 minutes
to remove the starch. Dry
the chips using kitchen
paper before adding to the
fryer pan.
The crispiness is depend-
ent on the water and
starch content of the vari-
ety of potato used and the
quantity of oil.
Dry the potatoes carefully
and cover them with about
1 tablespoon of cooking
oil.
Cut the potatoes into
smaller pieces.
