Storing oil or fat
If the fryer is used at regular intervals, the fat can be kept in the fryer with the lid
closed. If the fryer is stored in a cool, dry location, the fat can be kept in the fryer for
for some weeks.
If you do not fry frequently, the filtered fat can be kept in a sealed container that is
protected from the light.
The frying fat can be used for food such as fish or meat 5-10 times without problems.
The fat is not as contaminated by potato dishes such as French fries or pastries, and
can be therefore used more frequently.
Caution! Used or contaminated fat or oil can self-ignite if
overheated, which is why the oil should be replaced in good
time. In the event of a fire, disconnect the plug form the power
supply and extinguish burning fat by covering with the lid. Never
extinguish using water!
Replace the frying fat if:
∙ It has turned brown
∙ It has an unpleasant smell
∙ Starts to smoke sooner than expected
Remove control panel with heater, remove container and pour the liquid oil that has
not yet fully cooled down into a container with a closure. Used fat and oil should not
be poured onto compost or down the drain. If large quantities are being produced,
ask your local authority for the location of a collection point.
Cleaning and care
∙ Each time you change the frying fat, the appliance should be cleaned thoroughly.
∙ Before cleaning always pull the power plug.
∙ Make the appliance cool down to room temperature.
∙ Do not plunge the electrical part into water.
∙ Remove the fryer basket.
∙ Lift the fryer pot from the appliance with caution and decant the fat into a pot.
(see “Cleaning the fryer fat”)
∙ The fryer pot, the lid and the fryer basket can be washed in warm water with usual
dishwashing detergents. Dry the parts well afterwards and make sure that there
isn’t any water in the lid.
∙ Do not use aggressive or abrasive cleaning agents.
∙ Warning: Keep away the heating element from water! Do not deform or damage
the temperature sensors which are installed at the heating element. Wipe the
heating element and the surface of the housing with a damp cloth.
∙ Put together the appliance after cleaning and make sure that the heating element
is thoroughly clipped; otherwise the appliance does not work.
