8. When using battered food, make sure
that the batter is rmly attached to the
food and all excess our is removed.
9. O en-used oil/fat is readily recognisable
as it is viscous and darker in colour, and
gives o an unpleasant smell or tends to
foam.
10. Old oil/fat (or oil containing a residue of
particles from earlier use) is in ammable
and tends to ignite easily. It is therefore
best to change the oil/fat a er it has been
used three or four times, bearing in mind
that its life-span depends mainly on the
kind and quantity of food fried.
11. e life span can be extended by ltering
the frying oil/fat a er each cycle of use.
12. e frying oil/fat may be stored inside
the deep fryer if the unit is kept closed
and stored in a cool place.
Nutrition-conscious deep-frying
For nutritious, healthy deep-frying we
recommend to use a temperature setting
of no higher than 175°C when deep-frying
amylaceous food, i.e. food with a higher-than-
average starch content. With the reduced
frying temperature, and with an equally
reduced amount of food in the frying basket,
the build-up of substances detrimental to
health is limited to a minimum.
General care and cleaning
z Before cleaning the appliance, ensure it is
disconnected from the power supply and
has cooled down completely.
z To avoid the risk of electric shock, do not
clean the appliance with water and do not
immerse it in water.
z Do not use abrasives or harsh cleaning
solutions.
z Before the appliance is used for the rst
time, the frying container and the basket
should be thoroughly cleaned. e inside
of the lid may be cleaned with a slightly
damp, lint-free cloth. To prevent any
remaining water from mixing with the
oil/fat, ensure that all parts are thoroughly
dried.
– To remove the oil from the frying
container, wait until the oil/fat has cooled
down su ciently but is still liquid;
carefully take out the heating element and
remove the oil/fat with a soup ladle. Once
the temperature has dropped su ciently,
you may also remove the frying container
carefully and pour out the oil/fat into a
heat-resistant container. e oil/fat can be
ltered by pouring it through absorbent
paper inserted into a heat-resistant funnel
or into the frying basket itself.
z Do not pour frying oil/fat down the
kitchen sink. Once cold, it may be
disposed of together with your household
refuse.

before cleaning. e frying basket, basket
handle, housing and the condensation
collection tray may be cleaned in hot
soapy water. Wipe all parts thoroughly dry
a erwards.
– e housing of the heating element and
the lid may be wiped clean with a damp
cloth.
– e lid contains a fat lter, which should
be replaced a er every few frying cycles.
Unlock the lter compartment cover to
remove the old fat lter.

cover in hot soapy water; ensure that
all parts are properly dried a erwards.
Insert a new fat lter and lock the lter
