Cleaning And Maintenance - T-Fal FR600D51 Quick Start Manual

• Frozen foods can be cooked in the basket. Follow the descriptions on the
food package. Use caution when lowering the basket in the oil, as ice
crystals can cause splattering. For optimal safety and mess-control,
close the fryer lid before lowering the basket into the oil tank. Always
lower slowly into the oil.
• After cutting potatoes for French fries or potato chips, wash pieces
of potatoes in cold water to remove starch. This will keep them from
sticking together. Dry completely before frying.
• Never place any plastic utensils into the hot oil. Do not pour hot oil into
plastic containers.
NOTE: It is recommended to lower the basket into the oil with the lid
closed to prevent the oil from splashing or making a mess on the counter,
on the side of product or on the user.
CLEANING & MAINTENANCE
WARNING: Do not attempt to clean your Deep Fryer or drain the oil while
either the Deep Fryer or the oil is hot.
Allow the unit to cool down completely.
• Before cleaning, unplug the breakaway cord from the wall outlet first,
and then from your Deep Fryer and wait for the Deep Fryer to cool down
completely.
• Remove the control panel with the heating element from the housing
by lifting vertically.
• Never immerse the control panel in any liquid. Clean the heating element
with hot, soapy water and be careful not to wet the control panel.
• Clean the exterior of the control panel with a slightly damp cloth.
• Wash the frying basket, the lid, the oil tank, the charcoal filter cover,
the oil tray and the aluminum filter in a dishwasher or with warm soapy
water and dry thoroughly.
• Wipe the deep fryer housing with a damp cloth. Always ensure that all
components are dried thoroughly, as any residual water will cause the
oil to splatter.
IMPORTANT: Do not immerse the Deep Fryer control panel or breakaway
power cord in water or other liquid.
IMPORTANT: The charcoal filter is not dishwasher safe and should not be
placed in the dishwasher.
