FAQs

How do I clean the fryer?

Unplug the fryer and let it cool completely. Remove the basket and wipe the interior with a damp cloth. Clean the basket and housing with warm, soapy water. Do not immerse the fryer in water.

What type of oil should I use?

Use cooking oils suitable for deep frying, such as vegetable oil or sunflower oil. Always check the oil's smoke point.

How much oil should I use?

Fill the fryer with oil up to the maximum fill line indicated inside the fryer. Do not overfill.

Can I fry frozen food?

Yes, but ensure you shake off any excess ice crystals before frying, as this can cause the oil to splatter. Follow the cooking instructions on the food packaging.

What temperature should I set the fryer to?

The temperature depends on what you are cooking. Refer to food packaging for recommended temperatures. Generally, chips are fried at around 190°C.

How do I dispose of used oil?

Allow the oil to cool completely. Pour it into a sealed container and dispose of it according to local regulations. Never pour oil down the drain.

Troubleshooting

Fryer doesn't turn on.

Check the power cord and outlet. Ensure the fryer is properly plugged in and that the outlet is working.

Food is not cooking properly.

Check the oil temperature. Adjust the thermostat as needed and ensure the oil has reached the correct temperature before adding food. Overloading the basket can also affect cooking.

Oil smells bad.

Change the oil regularly. Food particles can burn and cause an unpleasant odor. Ensure you are using fresh, clean oil.
