Maintenance

Before doing any operation, cut off the electricity from
the apparatus.
In order to give your equipment a long life, it is vital to
thoroughly clean it all over, remembering the following
points:
- the steel and/or painted parts must be cleaned using
suitable products (available on the market) which are not
abrasive or corrosive. Avoid products based on chlorine
(bleach, etc);
- avoid leaving acids or alkalis on the work surface
(vinegar, salt, lemon-juice, etc.)
- It is best to change the oil very often, however, because,
even if it is well filtered, small residual particles can
catch fire during cooking.
- Before putting the food into the fryer, check that is
perfectly dry.
Wait until the oil has reached the required temperature.
- For frozen food, it is advisable to defrost it at a low
temperature and then fry it at high temperature.
- In preparing certain dishes (fried potatoes) you will
get the best results by precooking at a temperature of
160 °C, and then subsequently cooking at 180 °C.
- During cooking, it is often necessary to add salt or
flavourings. Avoid, if at all possible, doing this directly
into the fryer, because salt, by falling into the oil, has its
quality reduced.
- In the case of a breakdown, before calling a technician,
try resetting the safety thermostat, by pressing the
button visible, after having removed the oil bowl and
unscrewed the safety plug on the front, interior side.
