Frequently Asked Questions - Professional 3 Compact TAURUS

What to do if the oil catches fire?

Unplug the fryer immediately and smother the flames with the lid, a blanket, or a large cloth. Never use water.

How to clean the deep fryer?

Unplug it and wait for it to cool down. Remove the electrical unit (do not immerse it). Wash the basket, lid, tank and body in hot soapy water or in the dishwasher (gentle cycle). Wipe the electrical unit with a damp cloth.

When should I change the oil?

Change the oil after 15 to 20 fried batches, or every 5 to 6 months if you don't use it regularly. Replace it sooner if it is dark or has a rancid smell.

Can I fry frozen foods?

It is better to thaw food before frying. Introducing frozen foods can cause dangerous oil splatters. If you must fry frozen foods, make sure they don't contain too much water.

How to adjust the temperature?

Turn the thermostat to the desired temperature. The indicator light turns red when the oil heats up and turns off when the temperature is reached. For starchy foods, use a temperature below 170°C to limit acrylamide.

What to do if the appliance doesn't turn on?

Check that the cable is properly plugged in and that the thermostat is not set to MIN. If the appliance has overheated, the thermal safety device has been triggered: unplug it, let it cool, then press the reset button (located at the back of the electrical unit) with the tip of a pen.

Can I fry with the lid closed?

No, for the Professional 3 Compact model, frying should be done without the lid. However, the Professional 3 Plus Compact model allows frying with the lid closed (thanks to the filter). Check your manual to verify your model.

How to drain the oil?

After use and after it has cooled, remove the lid and basket. Gently pour the used oil into a suitable container. Never pour it down the sink. Follow local waste disposal regulations.

Why does the indicator light stay on?

The light turns red during heating and goes off when the set temperature is reached. If the light never goes off, the thermostat may be faulty or the temperature never reached (for example, if the tank is empty or the oil is too cold). Check that the oil is at the correct level.

How to store the power cord?

The appliance has a cable compartment under the deep fryer. Coil the cord and store it in this compartment to avoid any tripping hazard or damage.
