Repairs to electrical appliances
must only be carried out by a suit
-
ably qualified and competent person
in accordance with local and na
-
tional safety regulations. Unauthor
-
ised repairs could be dangerous.
Some minor problems, however, can be
dealt with as follows:
What to do if ...
... after switching on, the appliance
does not heat up.
Check whether
– the safety cut-out has been activated
(see "Safety cut-out").
– the appliance has been switched on
at the mains and that the mains fuse
is in order. If the fuse has blown, con-
tact an electrician or the Service de-
partment.
... the oil has an unpleasant odour.
Check whether the oil
–
is suitable for frying.
–
needs changing.
... the food is not crisp and brown.
Ensure that the oil is hot enough and
that the frying basket is not overloaded.
Fry for longer if necessary.
