7. Filtration process
7.1 Preparing for filtration
1. Lift VITO out of the drip pan (6).
2. Insert the filter paper into the pump-filter unit (11) (see chapter 9 Changing the filter paper).
3. Close the filter cover. Snap the filter cover into the bottom of the pump-filter unit (11).
4. Place the control unit (8) on the pump-filter unit (11).
5. Tighten the star handles (7).
7.2 Starting the filtration
1. Place the VITO in the deep fryer.
2. Ensure that VITO stands firmly.
3. Check the frying oil level (take care of MIN and MAX levels (11)).
4. Plug in the power cord (10).
Power indicator (1) lights up.
5. Press Start / Stop button (5).
The filter indicator (2) lights up during filtration.
7.3 Stopping filtration prematurely
1. Press the Start / Stop button (5).
The filter indicator (2) shuts off.
2. Lift VITO and let residual oil flow into the fryer.
3. Store VITO in the drip pan (6) (see chapter 8 Storage / cooling time).
8. Storage / cooling time
•
Place VITO in the drip pan (6) after use or for transport.
•
Permissible storage temperature +10°C to +30°C / +50°F to +86°F.
Cooling phases:
•
Up to 2.5 hours when power cord (10) is unplugged.
•
Approx. 15min. when power cord (10) is plugged in.
9. Changing the filter paper
Change the filter paper as needed. The change depend on the use of VITO and the degree of contamination of the frying oil.
Pay attention to the cleaning performance and how much oil comes out at the front of the pump-filter unit (11).
Normal flow
Do not leave gaps between the filter and
Low flow
the edges of the pump-filter unit (11).
Overlap the last fold of the filter paper on
both sides of the pump-filter unit (11).
