Cleaning
Filtering the oil
•
You may store the oil in the fryer, or in a separate airtight container.
•
Do not pour used oil into the sink. Leave it to cool, and throw it away with the
household waste - according to the local community regulations.
•
Crumbs that break away from foods tend to burn and alter the quality of the oil
more rapidly. Over time, this increases the risk of catching fire. For this reason,
filter the oil regularly.
Cleaning the fryer
•
Do not handle the appliance without having it unplugged and allowing it
to cool (2 to 3 hours) beforehand.
•
Remove the filter cover then the filter. Do not wash or wet the anti-odor filter.
•
Open and remove the lid from the fryer.
•
Remove the basket.
•
The basket can be washed in the dishwasher or immersed in soapy water.
•
Clean the lid and the bowl with a sponge and soapy water-
fig 11
.
•
Clean the body of the fryer with a damp cloth.
•
Dry all parts thoroughly before putting them back together.
•
Place the lid back on the fryer.
•
Put the anti-odor filter and the filter cover into place.
•
Store the plug in its place -

(depending on model).
BOWL WITH NON-STICK COATING (depending on model) :
Browning and scratches that may appear after prolonged use do not cause any problems. We guarantee that the non-
stick coating complies with regulations regarding materials coming into contact with foodstuffs.
We recommend changing the oil
after a maximum of 8 to 12
uses.
Leave the fryer (and the oil
within) to cool completely before
filtering (2 to 3 hours).
