4. OIL CARE
Filter oil after use:
D
Turn the mains switch (1) to 0. Wait until the oil has cooled.
D
Attach the extension piece for draining the oil to the drain
cock.
D
Place the collecting basin with the strainer in it under the
drain hole.
D
Slowly open the drain cock by pushing up the locking
device on the lever and simultaneously loosening the drain
cock lever by 1/4 turn anti-clockwise.
D
Drain about 1/3 of the oil through the strainer into the col-
lecting basin.
D
Clean the strainer and pour the oil back into the oil bath. In
the event of strong contamination, drain and filter all the oil.
D
After use, cover the oil trough with the cover.
5. CHANGING THE FRYING OIL
The oil must be changed as soon as it becomes dark brown
with use. To do so, proceed as follows:
D
Turn the mains switch (1) to 0. Allow the oil in the oil trough
to cool down fully.
D
Open the door in the base unit.
D
Attach the extension piece for draining the oil to the drain
cock.
D
Place the collecting basin under the drain opening without
the strainer.
D
Open the drain cock and drain all the oil carefully.
D
Used frying oil must be regularly disposed of.
6. CLEANING
The appliance should be cooled before every cleaning
operation.
D
Turn off the drain cock and pour boiling water with a degre-
asing agent (soda) into the oil trough (about 2“ (5 cm)
above the oil level mark).
D
Allow to stand for 30 minutes.
D
Clean the grid insert, baskets, strainer, cover and collecting
basin outside the appliance.
D
Clean the oil troughs with a stiff brush (not a steel brush).
D
Drain the water.
D
The residues of the degreasing agent disintegrate the
frying fat. After cleaning rinse thoroughly with clean, luke-
warm water and rub dry with a clean cloth.
D
Close the drain cock with the handle.
D
Fill with clean oil.
D
Never wash the control panel with water, just wipe it clean
with a dry cloth.
D
Wash rust-resistant chrome nickel steel panels with hot
soapy water to which a fat-dissolving agent has been
added and rub them dry.
Note
D
The appliance must not be sprayed with a water jet or
high-pressure cleaner.
D
The floor directly in front of, near and behind the appliance
must be cleaned normally without a high-pressure cleaner.
D
Never use steel wool, spatulas or ordinary steel wire
brushes for cleaning the surfaces, since the deposition of
steel particles can lead to rust formation. Stainless steel
wool can possibly be used, but only in the grinding
direction.
D
Never use chloric products (bleaching dye, hydrogen
chloride etc.) for cleaning chrome nickel steel, even if they
are diluted.
D
Never use corrosive substances for cleaning the floor
under the appliance (e.g. hydrochloric acid). Clean the
appliance with commercial cleaning agents.
7. SHUTTING DOWN
The following should be observed when shutting down for a
long period:
D
Never store the fryer where the temperature can drop
below 32°F (0 C°).
D
Do not leave the troughs full of water, since this prevents
the normal passivation of the steel and the surfaces are
thus less resistant to corrosion.
D
Rub all chrome nickel steel surfaces with a cloth soaked in
vaseline oil, to lay down a thin protective coating.
D
Air the installation site regularly.
