Care anD CLeanIng

warnIng: Always ensure that the appliance and any parts and accessories of it are out of

reach of young children. Always switch OFF the appliance (temperature dial set to MIN,

green indicator is illuminated), then unplug the appliance, and wait until the oil cooled down

(at least 3 hours), before cleaning the appliance. It will take a long time after operation for

the oil to cool down. Always ensure that the oil cooled down before disassembling, moving,

and/or cleaning the appliance. Do not attempt to move the appliance with the oil

in the oil container still hot! Otherwise, hot oil could be spilled, causing severe injuries

and damage.
Keep in mind that the parts of the appliance are fatty and oil could drip, when removing any

parts. Keep delicate objects in sufficient distance. Do not place the parts of the appliance on

surfaces that are sensitive to fat or moisture. It is a good idea to have a large dish or bowl at

hand.

Let the appliance cool down for at least 3 hours. The oil in the oil

container may no longer be hot.

squeezed, bend, or pressed flat. Always handle the filter insert

with special care to avoid damage! Do not clean the filter insert

with any brushes or clothes.
4.

(see figure B). It is best to clean the filter insert in a small bowl with

hot dishwater. Just toss the filter in the dishwater. Thereafter rinse

Then leave it dry naturally.
tip: If the filter insert is damaged or soiled by oil vapour, you

should replace it.
warnIng: Do not replace the filter insert by any other type

of filter. Unsuited filters could catch fire during operation, thus

causing severe injuries and damage! Only use filter inserts dedicated for the appliance. For

replacement, get in contact with your vendor.
