WORLDWIDE EXCLUSIVITY
Filtration, drainage and automatic storage of oil/fat
Oléoclean is fitted with an exclusive and patented system for filtration and automatic
drainage, suitable for most types of oils and fats used for cooking.
Thanks to the OIL BOX container, you can store your oil or fat and keep it until you next
want to use it.
- The drainage of oil is completely automatic and does not need any special handling,
which makes it totally safe.
- Thanks to the automatic filtration system, your oil/fat stays clean and lasts longer for
healthier frying.
- Separate OIL BOX containers can be used to store oil/fat used for frying different types of
food (chips, fish, doughnuts, etc.) to avoid any transfer of flavours.
Dismantling the fryer
• Open the lid by pressing on one of the
two buttons and and pull it away from
the fryer.
• Lift the basket handle until you hear a
“click” as it locks.
• Take out the basket and the bowl.
• Remove the oil/fat container.
• Remove the control panel.

Preparation for use
Cleaning the fryer
• Remove the protective film from the
underside of the viewing window
(depending on model).
• Clean all parts (except the control panel)
with a sponge and washing-up liquid or
put them through the dishwasher.
• Dry them off.
• Replace the lid.
• Replace the bowl then the control panel.
• Turn the oil/fat container's drain button
anti-clockwise“OilBox/Fry” and slide the
empty container in the fryer.
Oil to use
• Use an oil recommended for deep frying.
For best results we recommend blended
vegetable oil. For sunflower oil, ground-
nut oil, or soya oil, ensure the oil is
changed after every 5 uses.
• If you are using a solid vegetable fat:
- Cut it into pieces and melt it in a separa-
te pan then pour it into the fryer (never
melt solid fat in the basket or the bowl).
- Follow the manufacturer’s cooking
recommendations.
Lard or dripping should not be used under
any circumstances and may cause overflo-
wing, smoking or risk of fire. For traditional
UK style deep fried foods, especially chips,
we do not recommend using olive oil.
Filling the bowl
• Fill the bowl.
• You have the possibility of frying your
food with 1.5 litres of fat/oil to 2 litres of
fat/oil depending on type of food (see
cooking table page 10).
For good
visibility through the
window, see page 13 -
Cleaning.
Never immerse
the control panel and
cord in water.
Do not misalign
the position of the
drain button.
Do not force
the drain button.
Do not mix
different types of
fat/oil.
Adjust the oil
level depending on
type of food. Do not
exceed the quantity
corresponding to the
marks 2L. Never use
less than 1.5L.

Eng
Preparation for use
Never plug in
the deep fryer without
oil/fat inside.
Never exceed
the maximum
quantity of food for
safety.
Cut food to the
same size so that it
cooks evenly. Avoid
using pieces that are
too thick.
Remove excess
ice from frozen food
before frying by
shaking the food in
the basket over a sink.
Preheating
• Check the fryer has oil/fat inside before
switching on.
• Close the lid.
• Plug in.
• Set the thermostat to the position cor-
responding to the food you are frying
(see cooking tables p. 11).
• The fryer is heating and the temperature
light is on.
Removing the basket
• When the correct temperature has been
reached (indicator light will go out), lift
the basket handle until you hear the
"click" as it locks.
• Fill the basket with food.
• Reduce the quantities for frozen foods.
• Put the basket in place on the edge of
the bowl and leave the handle in the
horizontal position.
• Close the lid.
• No matter what the recipe, food must be
dried thoroughly before frying. This will
prevent the oil overflowing and extend
the life of the oil.

We recommend you to:
- Control the cooking: only eat golden brown fried food not burnt food.
- Clean your oil after every use to avoid burnt crumbs and change it regularly.
- Eat a balanced and varied diet which should include 5 portions of fruit and vegetables daily.
For good quality and fast cooking, we recommend that you limit the quantity of chips to 1/2 a basket per fry.
Cooking times
The cooking times and the quantities of fat are only a guide, they may vary depending on
quantities and personal taste. For thicker foods (marked with an asterisk) and when cooking
with 1 litre of oil, turn the food halfway through frying to ensure even cooking on both sides.
Foods recommended for frying in 1 litre of oil can be cooked in 2 litres of oil if preferred, using the
same cooking temperature and time.
Cooks tip
: when cooking battered foods or doughnuts, remove the wire basket to prevent food stic-
king to it. Take great care when handling the food and use tongs. Gradually place the food in the hot
oil, submerging it an inch at a time to prevent it from sinking straight away.

Make sure that
the oil container is
empty before draining
the bowl.
It is important
to drain/filter the oil
after each use.
Crumbs that break
away from food tend
to burn and alter the
quality of the oil more
rapidly. Over time
this increases the risk
of catching fire.
Always keep
the container in a
horizontal position
with the lid on top.
You can store
your different types of
oils/fats in several sepa-
rate containers which
are sold as accessories.
Diagrams shown on the
container lid help to
identify the type of oil
contained inside.
Maintenance
Draining the fat
• Once frying is finished, turn the drain
button clockwise to the open position
“Automatic Oil Filtration“.
• For your safety, the appliance drains auto-
matically when the fat is cool enough
(draining process begins after about
2 hours and may take a further 2 hours to
complete).
Storing the container of fat
• In the appliance
- The appliance must be carried and
transported flat, in a cool dry place away
from light.
- Place the drain button in the closed
position “OilBox/Fry”.
• Outside of the appliance
- Before taking the container out, make
sure that the drain button is in the closed
position “OilBox/Fry”.
- Wait at least 2 hours before taking the
full container out of the appliance.
- Take out the container.
- Carry the container with both hands.
- Store it in a cool dry place away from
light. It is not necessary to store oil in a
refrigerator.
3406-ME oleoclean-M03.xp 1/09/03 15:20 Page 11

12
Eng
Change the
fat/oil every 8 to
12 uses. A “clean” fat
preserves the taste
quality and lightness
of foods as well as
limiting smells.
Diagrams on
the container’s lid
show you the
different handling
operations.
For the filter to
work properly, change
it after every 80 times
you fry.
If the filter falls
into the hot fat, you
have to change the fat
and the filter.
Maintenance
Reusing the fat/oil
• Hold the container carefully.
• For oil
- Remove the red cap from the fill/drain
tube .
- Empty the oil in the bowl.
• For solid fat:
- remove the lid from the container.
- turn the container over and press on it
so as to loosen the fat.
- empty the fat from the container
fill/drain tube.
- cut the fat into pieces and melt it in a
separate pan then pour it into the bowl.
Replacing the container
• Replace the container lid and the red
cap.
• Place the drain button in the closed posi-
tion “OilBox/Fry”.
• Insert the container into the appliance.
Changing the carbon filter
• Open the fryer's lid.
• Take out the filter using the holding tabs.
• Replace the new filter in the lid (this can
be washed with water in the lid or out of
the lid).

up of oily residue
which can put a strain
on the mechanism
causing it to break,
wash the basket and
handle thoroughly
after each use.
Take care to
ensure that the
rotating arms in the
dishwasher do not
damage any of the
fryer parts.
Clean the
window each time the
fryer has been used.

non-stick qualities for
as long as possible,
do not use metal
utensils.
If however your
bowl becomes
misshapen, obtain a
replacement from
your approved Service
Centre.
