Cleaning And Maintenance - Bestron DF402B Manual Del Usuario

• When you're using fresh homemade French fries, make sure they are dry! Because fresh
homemade French fries generally contain more moisture than deep frozen fries
• Do not fry oven-ready chips.
• Do not fry potatoes that have been stored for too long, or are beginning to develop shoots.
• Do not put too much food in the frying basket at one time, keep the edge as maximum.
• Filter the oil or liquid fat at regular intervals to remove any breadcrumbs and particles of food.
• Take extreme care when filling and emptying the deep fryer, and when opening and closing the lid.
The inside of the lid and the bowl are both very hot; the hot vapours and splashes of liquid fat or oil
can also cause burns.
OPERATION - Using the frying baskets
The frying baskets can be used in many different combinations:
• For small portions, just use one small basket (max. 750gram).
• For larger portions, or large snacks, then use the large basket (max 1500gram).
• For frying two different foods at the same time, use the two small baskets (max. 2x 750 gram) together.
No matter which fry basket you use, make sure that the oil level always lies between the 'MIN' (2,5L)
and 'MAX' (4,5L) marks in the bowl.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - Replacing the oil or liquid fat
The quality of the oil or liquid fat deteriorates every time you use the deep fryer. For this reason you will need
to replace the oil or liquid fat at regular intervals. Topping up the oil or liquid fat will not improve the quality.
Use good quality oil or liquid fat.
ATTENTION: Never using solid fats (blocks)
ATTENTION: Only use oil or liquid fats specifically suitable for frying
Replace the oil or liquid fat when;
• it becomes darker in colour,
• it becomes thicker in consistency,
• small air bubbles are seen that take a long time to disappear; in new, fresh liquid fat the air bubbles are
large and they also disappear rapidly,
• the fried food has an unpleasant or strange taste or smel,
• the appliance emits more smoke than usual.
CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE - General
Clean the appliance and the loose parts thoroughly after each use:
1. Switch off the deep fryer by turning the On/Off - temperature control knob fully to the left. Disconnect the
plug from the wall socket.
2. Allow the deep fryer to cool.
3. Store the power cord in the compartment at the back of the deep fryer.
4. Remove the lid and the frying basket from the deep fryer.
5. Remove the inner pan from the deep fryer
and pour the oil or liquid fat into a receptacle.
Preference is given to handing in frying oil and
liquid fat to your municipality; these can be reused
for other purposes.
6. Remove the remaining oil using absorbent
paper kitchen towel.
7. Thoroughly clean the inside of the bowl and
frying basket with hot water to which a little
washing-up liquid has been added; do NOT
use scourers. Then dry them thoroughly.
8. Clean the housing with a damp cloth, if
necessary with an additional couple of drops
of washing-up liquid. After cleaning, dry the
housing thoroughly.
