Electric Fryer F17331
Cleaning
Before cleaning, always unplug the appliance from the electrical
socket.
* Never immerse the deep fryer in water or hold it under
the tap.The infiltration of water may cause short-circui-
ting and electric shocks.
After allowing the oil to cool for about 2 hours, empty out the oil
or fat as previously described in the paragraph “filtering the oil or
fat”.
Remove the lid by lifting it carefully (Fig. 16).
Do not wash the lid before removing the filters.
To clean the bowl, proceed as follows:
• Remove the bowl from the fryer by lifting it gently (see figure
19) and wash it with hot water and washing up liquid using a
soft sponge. Never use abrasive detergents or sponges as they
could damage the nonstick surface of the bowl. Do not remove
the hose from the bowl in order to wash them separately. Do
not remove the hose clip.
• The bowl with the drainage hose may also be washed in the
dishwasher. Make sure the hose is not near knives or
moving parts of the dishwasher.
•A plastic pipe cleaner is supplied with the product for use in
cleaning the oil drainage hose (Fig. 20). It is essential that no
alternative pipe cleaners are used as DAMAGE may occur to
the hose. Never use the pipe cleaner before extracting the
drainage hose.
• Regular examination of the oil drainage hose should be carried
out. If the hose appears damaged it should only be replaced by
a De’Longhi appointed service agent, contact De’Longhi custo-
mer services for your local agent address.
• The basket should be cleaned regularly, with care being taken
to remove any deposits.The basket and its handle can be was-
hed in the dishwasher.
•Dry the outside of the deep fryer using a soft, damp cloth, to
remove any splashes and drops of oil or condensation.
• After washing, dry thoroughly. Remove any residual
water from the bottom of the bowl and, above all, from
inside the oil drain hose.This will prevent dangerous
splashes of hot oil during operation.
•To replace the bowl in the fryer, proceed as follows: open the
door of the hose storage compartment, insert the bowl at a
slight angle ensuring the hose goes in first. Position the hose in
the storage compartment and close the door (fig. 19).
•Make sure the protruding part of the hose clip is facing upwards
before replacing the bowl in the fryer (fig. 21).
