FAQs
How do I clean the fryer?
Allow the fryer and oil to cool completely. Drain the oil. Wipe down the interior and exterior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
What type of oil should I use?
You can use any standard cooking oil suitable for frying. Check the oil's smoke point to ensure it's appropriate for your desired frying temperature.
How often should I change the oil?
Change the oil when it becomes dark, thick, or starts to smoke excessively. The frequency depends on usage and the type of food being fried.
What is the thermostat cutout for?
The thermostat cutout is a safety feature that prevents the fryer from overheating. If the temperature gets too high, the cutout will shut off the power. Reset the switch after it cools down and after any identified problem is addressed.
Can I use just one tank at a time?
Yes, both tanks have separate power controls and thermostats, allowing you to use one tank independently of the other.
What is the warranty?
Please refer to the product documentation or contact B&Q customer service for warranty information.
