FAQs

How do I clean the fryer?

Unplug the fryer and let it cool completely. Remove the baskets and other removable parts and wash them in warm, soapy water or in the dishwasher. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth.

What type of oil should I use?

Use cooking oil specifically designed for deep frying, such as vegetable oil, peanut oil, or sunflower oil. Avoid using olive oil, as it has a lower smoke point.

How often should I change the oil?

Change the oil after approximately 8-12 uses, or sooner if the oil becomes dark, thick, or starts to smoke excessively.

Can I fry frozen food?

Yes, but be careful. Ensure the oil temperature is correct and add the frozen food gradually to prevent the oil from splattering.

What is the purpose of the easy-view window?

The easy-view window allows you to monitor your food as it cooks without lifting the lid, helping to maintain the oil temperature and prevent splattering.

What is the maximum oil capacity?

The maximum oil capacity is 5 litres.

What is the warranty period for the fryer?

Check the product documentation for warranty details. Warranties typically cover defects in materials and workmanship.

Troubleshooting

Fryer won't turn on.

Check that the fryer is plugged in securely and that the power outlet is working. Ensure the timer is not set to 0.

Food is not crispy.

Ensure the oil is at the correct temperature. Avoid overcrowding the basket, as this can lower the oil temperature.

Uneven cooking.

Make sure the food is evenly distributed in the basket and not piled up. Shake the basket gently during cooking for even results.

The fryer is smoking excessively.

The oil temperature might be too high. Reduce the temperature or replace the oil if it has degraded.
