[. . . ] From time to time it is necessary to renew it completely. The length of time the oil or fat lasts depends on what is fried. Breading, for example, dirties the oil more than simple frying. As for all types of deep fryer, the oil deteriorates if it is reheated several times!Therefore, even if it is used and filtered correctly, we recommend replacing it completely fairly often. Since the deep fryer works with little oil, due to its rotating basket, there is the considerable advantage that you only have to get rid of about half the amount of oil that you would with the other deep fryers on the market. 1 2 fig 9 fig. 10 5 Electric deep fryer FRP Cleaning Before cleaning, always remove the plug from the electrical socket. Never immerse the deep fryer in water or hold it under the tap. By getting inside the water would cause short circuiting.

(To open the lid in the event of sticking, you only need to raise the lid by hand while at the same time keeping the opening button pressed down). Model with non-stick boiler pan To clean the boiler pan use a soft cloth with a neutral detergent never using objects or abrasive detergents. How to fry correctly · It is important to follow the recommended temperature for every recipe. If the temperature is too low, the fried food absorbs oil. If the temperature is too high a crust quickly forms on the outside while the inside remains uncooked. The food which is to be fried must only be immersed when the oil has reached the right temperature, i. e. Do not overfill the basket. This would cause the temperature of the oil to drop suddenly, resulting in fried food which is too greasy and not uniformly fried. When frying small quantities of food, the temperature of the oil 6 · · · Electric deep fryer FRP · · must be set lower than the temperature indicated to avoid the oil boiling too violently. [. . . ] Do not forget to tighten the mains lead clamp on the plug. If your electricity supply point has only two pin socket outlets, or if you are in doubt, consult a qualified electrician. Should the mains lead ever require replacement, it is essential that this operation be carried out by a qualified electrician and should only be replaced with a flexible cord of the same size. After replacement of a fuse in the plug, the fuse cover must be refitted. [. . . ]
