Changing The Frying Oil Or Fat; Cleaning And Care - Silvercrest SKF 2300 A16 Operating Instructions Manual

Risk of personal injury!
Never take hold of the frying basket 3 directly after
frying. It is very hot! Lift the frying basket 3 out of
the fryer ONLY by the handle!
• Carefully lift the frying basket 3 out of the deep
fryer. If necessary, shake off any excess oil or fat
over the deep fryer.
• Tip the fried food into a bowl or a sieve (lined
with absorbent kitchen paper!)
If you do not use the deep fryer regularly it is re-
commended that, after cooling, the oil or liquified
fat is poured into a well sealed container and stored in
the refrigerator or a cool storeroom. Fill the contai-
ner through a sieve, in order to remove any food
particles from the oil or fat. Solid fats must still be in
a liquid state so that they can be poured.

Changing the frying oil or fat

Change the oil first when it has completely cooled
down. Solid fats must still be in a liquid state so that
they can be poured.
• Open the appliance lid.
• Remove the frying basket 3.
• Remove the operating/heating element 5.
Place the operating/heating element 5 at a
clean and dry location.
• Carefully remove the stainless steel container
4 with the oil or fat from the deep fryer.
• Pour the oil or fat into suitable containers, for
example bottles. For this, use the pouring runnel
at the corner of the stainless steel container 4.
Note:
The disposal of cooking oils and fats is regulated
differently in every community or town. Frequently,
it is not permitted to dispose of such oils or fats with
normal household refuse. Make enquiries at your
local community administration office about suitable
disposal sites.
• Thoroughly clean all parts of the deep fryer,
as described in the Chapter "Cleaning".
• Refill the deep fryer with fresh oil or fat, as de-
scribed in the Chapter „Frying".

Danger!
