Frequently Asked Questions - IDF-4000S Imarflex

What type of oil can I use in the Imarflex IDF-4000S?

You can use any standard cooking oil suitable for deep frying, such as vegetable, canola, or peanut oil. Do not mix new oil with used oil.

How much oil should I put in the deep fryer?

Fill oil between the MIN and MAX level indicators inside the oil pan. The capacity is 4 liters, but do not overfill.

How do I clean the deep fryer?

Always unplug and let it cool. For the oil pan, soak with water and liquid detergent for 1 hour, then scrub with a sponge. Wash the basket and lid with soap and water. Wipe the heater assembly and base with a damp cloth. Never immerse the heater in water.

What does the overload protection do?

If the deep fryer overheats, it will automatically shut off. To reset, press the small dark-brown button located inside the cord storage compartment using a pointed object like a ball pen.

Can I cook frozen French fries directly?

Yes, but for best results, use a maximum of 200 grams of fries per liter of oil. For fresh potatoes, dry them first to avoid water mixing with oil. Fry in two stages: pre-fry at 180°C for 5-10 minutes, then final fry at 200°C for 2-4 minutes.

What foods can I cook and at what temperatures?

Refer to the Frying Table Guide in the manual: e.g., chips at 180-200°C, fish at 180°C, chicken at 200°C, doughnuts at 200°C. Temperatures may vary based on quantity and type.

Can I use the deep fryer without oil?

No. Do not switch on the deep fryer without oil as it can damage the unit. Always ensure oil is above the MIN level.

How do I store the cord?

The deep fryer has a cord storage compartment at the base. Wind the cord neatly and store it inside after use.

Is the deep fryer safe to leave unattended?

No. Never leave the unit unattended while cooking. Always supervise children and keep flammable materials away.

Where can I get warranty service or replacement parts?

Fill out the warranty card and send it with the receipt to [e-mail]. For repairs, bring the unit to the nearest Imarflex Authorized Service Center.
