FAQs

How do I clean the Progress Deep Fat Fryer?

Unplug the fryer and let it cool completely. Remove the basket and clean it with warm, soapy water. Wipe the interior with a damp cloth. Never submerge the main unit in water.

What type of oil should I use?

Refer to the product manual for recommended oil types suitable for deep frying. Typically, vegetable or canola oil is a good choice.

How do I replace the filter?

Follow the instructions in the manual for removing and replacing the filter. Replacement frequency depends on usage, but typically, it should be replaced every few months or as needed.

Can I fry frozen foods?

Why is my food soggy?

The oil temperature may not be high enough. Ensure the fryer has reached the set temperature before adding food. Also, avoid overcrowding the basket and drain food properly after frying.

What is the warranty period?

How do I dispose of used oil?

Allow the oil to cool and then pour it into a sealed container. Dispose of the container according to local regulations; do not pour it down the drain.

Can I use the fryer for foods with batter?

Yes, but be careful. Ensure the batter is set before lowering the food into the oil to avoid sticking or falling apart. Keep an eye on the cooking time as well.

Troubleshooting

Fryer won't turn on.

Check if the power cord is securely plugged into the outlet and that the outlet is functioning. Check your fuse or circuit breaker.

Food is not cooking evenly.

Avoid overcrowding the basket and ensure the temperature is set correctly for the food type. Stir foods occasionally to promote even cooking.

Excessive smoke during frying.

Ensure the oil is not overheated, and do not use oil past its smoking point. Consider changing the oil if it has been used multiple times.

Ensure the integrated filter is clean or replace it if necessary. Make sure to use the fryer in a well-ventilated area.
