The fat must be filtered regularly. Scraps that break away from foods tend to burn and cause the fat to change more rapidly, as well as risking igniting over time.
Storing the fat
•
With a sieve, collect the small pieces of food left in the fat.
•
Store the fat in the deep fryer, or keep it in the fridge in a separate container (recommended if you do not use the deep fryer often).
Filtering the fat
With a filter paper (available from approved Service Centres).
•
Wait for the fat to become lukewarm.
•
Empty the fat gently into a pan.
•
Place a filter paper in the bottom of the basket.
•
Clean inside the bowl.
•
Place the basket and filter paper into the deep fryer (handle in the upper position).
•
Pour the fat carefully back into the bowl.
•
Throw the filter paper away and clean the basket.
With a filtering container maximum capacity: 2.4 l (available from approved Service Centres - for certain countries only).
Maintenance
Change the fat after being used for a maximum of 8 to 12 times each time. “Clean” fat keeps the flavour and lightness of foods.
Changing the oil/fat
•
Do not pour used fat into the sink. Leave it to cool and throw it away with the household waste.
Change the cartridge each time the deep fryer has been used a maximum of 30 to 40 times.
Replace the Anti-odour cartridge
(available from approved Service Centres)
• When the saturation indicator on the filter has turned deep red, change the filter.
