THERMAL CUT-OUT
The cut-out operates to protect the element from overheating.
If your fryer stops working:
1.
Switch off, unplug, and let it cool down.
2.
Check the oil level.
3.
If the oil level is below the MIN mark, reset the cut-out.
4.
If the oil level isn't too low, and the cut-out has operated for some other reason, ring Customer
Service.
5.
Use the reset tool to press the reset button and reset the cut-out.
6. The excess heat will have spoiled the oil, so clean out the bowl and refill with fresh oil.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
Unplug the appliance and let it cool down before cleaning or storing away.
Normal cleaning
1.
Wipe outer surfaces with a damp cloth.
2.
Put the lid on top of the bowl, to keep dust, etc. out of the oil.

`
You may wash these parts in a dishwasher.
•
If you use a dishwasher, the harsh environment inside the dishwasher will affect the surface finishes.
•
The damage should be cosmetic only, and should not affect the operation of the appliance.
•
If residue builds up on the element, clean it with detergent, and clean more often.
•
Remove all trace of detergent and dry before reassembling.
Discolouration
With use, the basket, element, thermostats, and control wires will discolour. This is inevitable, harmless,
and won't affect the operation of the appliance.
