Maintenance
Your Black & Decker tool has been designed to operate over a long period of time with a minimum of maintenance. Continuous satisfactory operation depends upon proper care and regular cleaning.
Warning! Before performing any maintenance or cleaning of the Fryer, disconnect the appliance from the power supply.
Emptying the Fryer
When the Fryer is cool, pour the old oil from the coking bowl (9) into a suitable container. Always follow local regulations concerning the disposal of used cooking oil.
Replacing the Filter
The filter (23) is fitted to reduce frying odours and should always be in place when using the Fryer. Over time, the filters will become less effective & will need to be replaced.
To replace the filters, press the filter cover tab (21) & lift the cover (3) from the lid. The filter assembly can now be removed. Fit the new filter assembly, making sure the white filter is down, and the wire mesh is on top.
B&D recommend replacing the filter after every 50- 60 uses.
Timer Battery Replacement
Pull the timer (18) from the Fryer & remove the 2 screws at the back of the timer. Lift the back off the timer. Remove the battery (22) from its location & insert a new one in its place, making sure the plus symbol faces the direction shown figure A. Refit the timer to the Fryer.
