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.
Store the fat
•
Turn off the fryer and wait until the oil
has completely cooled.
•
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).
Filter 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.

the basket.
With a filtering container
maximum capacity: 2.4 l (available
from approved Service Centres).
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.
Renew the 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 40 to 50
times.
