The oil must be filtered regular-
ly.
Remaining food debris tends to
burn and alters the quality of the
oil more rapidly. Over time, this
increases the risk of catching fire.
Oil storage
•
Remove any small pieces of food remaining in the
oil with a non-metallic skimmer or with oil filtering
papers.
•
Keep the oil in the deep fryer or store it in an air-
tight container away from heat and light sources.
(recommended if you do not use the deep fryer
often).
Filtering the oil
Using a filter paper (available online or from
approved T-Fal Service Centers):
•
Wait for the oil to cool.
•
Empty the oil gently into a pan.
•
Place a filter paper in the bottom of the basket.
•
Wash the fryer bowl.
•
Place the basket (with filter paper) into the deep
fryer (handle in the upper position).
•
Pour the oil carefully back into the bowl.
•
Throw the filter paper away and clean the basket.
Oil may also be filtered by using an oil filtering
container, ref. XA500003 maximum capacity: 2.5 l
(available from approved T-Fal Service Centers).
Change the oil after being used
for a maximum of 8 to 12 times.
“Clean” oil keeps the flavor and
lightness of foods.
Changing the oil/fat
•
Do not pour used oil into the sink. Leave it to cool
and throw it away with household waste.
Change the anti-odor filter each
time the deep fryer has been
used a maximum of 10 to 15
times.
Replace the Anti-odor filter
