Switch the fryer off. We recommend
that you filter the frying oil. This not only
removes impurities which can affect the
taste of the food but will help the oil last
longer.
^ Allow the oil to cool down but not to
solidify.
If it has already solidified then melt it
again by switching the fryer to 100 °C.
^ Place a heat resistant container of a
suitable size, a metal pot for exam-
ple, under the drain tap located un-
derneath the fryer.
^ Ensure the oil is not too hot. Open the
drain tap by turning the hand-wheel
on the tap

^ Once the oil has drained out, close

any further.
^ Filter the frying oil by pouring it
through kitchen paper or a metal
sieve lined with kitchen or filter paper.
^ Finally pour the filtered oil back into
the oil reservoir to be used again.
Take care that the underside of the
fryer is always easily accessible for
draining oil.
Ensure that the oil is not too hot be-
fore it is drained. Otherwise there
could be a danger of being burnt.
Only use a container which is able to
withstand heat to collect the drained
oil.
Do not replace the lid on the fryer
until the oil or fat has cooled down.
Change the oil when it
– is very dark and does not pour easily.
– smells unpleasant and froths.
– begins to smoke at a temperature of
170 °C or less.
