Cleaning and heating up for
the first time
Before using the fryer for the first time,
clean it as follows:
^
Fill the oil reservoir with approx. 4
litres of water and add a little wash
-
ing up liquid. Ensure that the water
level is not higher than the maximum
level indicator which is marked on the
rear of the reservoir.
^
Turn the control in a clockwise direc
-
tion to 130 °C and bring the water to
the boil.
^ When the water has started to boil,
switch off the fryer by turning the
control back anti-clockwise to "0".
Empty the water through the drain
tap into a heat resistant container.
(see section on "After frying").
^ Rinse the oil reservoir out with hot
water.
^ Close the drain tap, raise the heating
element and dry the reservoir with a
clean cloth.
^
Clean all other appliance surfaces
with a damp cloth only, and then wipe
dry.
Metal components have a protective
coating which may give off a slight
smell when the appliance is heated up
for the first time. The smell and any va
-
pours will dissipate after a short time
and do not indicate a faulty connection
or appliance.
