Frequently Asked Questions - CrispMaxx Serie 6 MAF671B5IN BOSCH

What type of oil should I use in my Bosch CrispMaxx deep fryer?

Use high-quality frying oil with a high smoke point, such as vegetable oil, peanut oil, or sunflower oil. Avoid olive oil or butter, as they burn easily.

How often should I change the oil?

Change the oil every 5-10 uses, or when it becomes dark, smells, or foams. Regularly filtering the oil can extend its life.

Can I fry frozen food directly?

Yes, but pat dry the food first and lower it gently to avoid oil splashing. Adjust the temperature and frying time as recommended.

How do I clean the deep fryer?

Unplug and let the oil cool completely. Remove the oil, then detach the removable parts and wash them in warm soapy water or a dishwasher. Wipe the base with a damp cloth.

Why does the odor filter need replacement and when?

The odor filter absorbs cooking smells. Replace it every 50-70 uses or when you notice unwanted odors during frying. Check the manual for filter specifications.

Is the frying basket dishwasher safe?

Yes, the frying basket and other removable parts are dishwasher safe. For best results, use a gentle cycle and dry them completely before storage.

What is the maximum oil level?

The maximum oil level is typically 3.5 liters. Always fill the pot between the MIN and MAX markings to ensure safe frying.

How do I store the deep fryer?

After cleaning and fully drying, store the deep fryer with the lid closed, and wrap the cord. Store it in a dry, cool place away from dust.

Can I repair the deep fryer myself?

You should not open the appliance yourself. Contact Bosch customer service or a certified technician for any repairs. Bosch offers spare parts for up to 10 years to ensure repairability.

What does the safety switch do?

The safety switch prevents the fryer from heating if the control panel is not properly installed or if the power cord is damaged. This helps prevent accidents and overheat.
