Instructions for Cleaning T-Fal Super Deep Fryers

T-Fal recommends using sunflower or vegetable oil in its deep fryers.

T-Fal makes a variety of deep fryers with a nonstick coating interior and a removable oil basket for easy cleaning. Some of these super deep fryers have an automatic setting that filters the oil after each use, leaving it clean and free from sediment. T-Fal recommends changing the oil in its deep fryers after every eight to 12 uses to preserve the fresh taste of the food. Cleaning a T-Fal super deep fryer is a simple process; while some parts are dishwasher safe, others need to be washed by hand.

Things You'll Need

• Pan
• Oil filter
• Cloth
• Sponge
• Dish soap
• Anti-odor filter
• Lemon juice

Instructions

1. Let the oil in the deep fryer cool; this can take up to three hours. Turn the "Oil Box Control" knob to "Automatic Filtration" to automatically filter the oil. Turn the "Oil Box Control" knob to "Fry" if you want to store the oil in the fryer when the filtration process is finished. Turn the "Oil Box Control" knob to the "Oil Box" position to remove the oil box and store it elsewhere, like a refrigerator.

2. If your deep fryer does not have an automatic oil filtration feature, you can pour the cool oil into a pan, place an oil filter into the deep fryer basket, and pour the oil over the filter into the basket. Discard the used filter and any trapped debris.

3. Unplug the T-Fal deep fryer. Wipe down the deep fryer housing with a damp cloth and dry it. Remove the deep fryer lid. Remove the anti-odor filter by separating the cover from the odor/splash guard. Wipe down the cover and odor/splash guard with a sponge and warm soapy water and dry them with a soft cloth. Place a new anti-odor filter between the cover and the odor/splash guard, and press both pieces back together until they click into place.

4. Clean the inside and outside of the viewing window with a sponge moistened with lemon juice to prevent the viewing window from clouding and streaking. Let the viewing window air dry.

5. Wash the oil box and deep fryer basket with warm, soapy water if you are not storing the oil in the deep fryer. Remove the deep fryer bowl, and place it in a dishwasher for best cleaning results. Let all parts dry before re-assembling them in the deep fryer.
