Maintenance
Your Black & Decker tool has been designed to
operate over a long period of time with a minimum
of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation
depends upon proper care and regular cleaning.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance or
cleaning of the Fryer, disconnect the appliance from
the power supply.
Emptying the Fryer
When the Fryer is cool, pour the old oil from the
coking bowl (9) into a suitable container. Always
follow local regulations concerning the disposal of
used cooking oil.
Replacing the Filter
The filter (23) is fitted to reduce frying odours and
should always be in place when using the Fryer.
Over time, the filters will become less effective &
will need to be replaced.
To replace the filters, press the filter cover tab (21) &
lift the cover (3) from the lid. The filter assembly can
now be removed. Fit the new filter assembly,
making sure the white filter is down, and the wire
mesh is on top.
B&D recommend replacing the filter after every 50-
60 uses.
Timer Battery Replacement
Pull the timer (18) from the Fryer & remove the 2
screws at the back of the timer. Lift the back off the
timer. Remove the battery (22) from its location &
insert a new one in its place, making sure the plus
symbol faces the direction shown figure A. Refit the
timer to the Fryer.
Cleaning
The main housing should be cleaned with a clean
damp cloth only.
Lid & Basket:
Remove the lid & basket from the appliance.
Remove the filter (23) from the lid. Wash the lid &
basket in warm soapy water. Rinse with clean water

Cleaning the bowl
Unplug the Fryer & allow the oil to cool to room
temperature. Remove the lid (1), basket (8) and the
cooking bowl (9) from the unit. Pour out the cool oil
and filter it nto a suitable container using a sieve to
filter out food particles from the oil.
