cloth
4. Lift out the pan from the body of the machine taking care not to spill any oil
5. Pour the oil into a suitable receptacle through a strainer if the oil is to be reused
6. Clean the pan in hot soapy water, dry and replace in the body of the fryer.
7. Refer back to operating instructions
CLEANING PARAGON FRYERS
Once the oil has been drained remove the control head from the bowl and wash the bowl and
the drain with hot soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Close the drain tap & replace the drain bung.
Clean around the element and batter plate, then replace back into the bowl.
The oil can then be poured back into the bowl.
Top up with clean oil as necessary.
All equipment should be kept absolutely clean; under no circumstances must food particles
be allowed to congeal on baskets or elements as this will cause foaming due to the particles
continuously cooking.
Periodically you will need to replace the cooking medium, do this when discolouration, odour,
surging or stray tastes indicate this; again, experience is your best guide, but remember that
more frequent changes will be required when different foods are cooked in the same medium.

DANGER
Old oil has a reduced flash point and is more prone to surge boiling.
Attention is also drawn to the effect of over-wet food and too large a charge on surge boiling.
Treat your fryer with the utmost respect with regard to safety, as hot cooking oil is a very
hazardous substance. Never use the lid while the fryer is switched on or is cooling off. It is
only a dust cover for when the fryer is not in use.
N.B. Incorrect oil level, old oil or allowing the machine to be switched on without any oil,
will cause the override switch to trip.
RESETTING FRYER OVERRIDE SWITCH ON PARAGON RANGE
1. Isolate machine from mains supply
