Q: How to manage the grease that falls on the heating elements when cooking a chicken in the UFESA Magnum fryer?

The UFESA Magnum fryer is designed to operate with very little oil, or even without oil. When cooking a chicken, it is normal for some grease to naturally fall. Here’s how to manage this situation: Correct placement of the crumb tray The crumb tray must be placed in the bottom part of the fryer, before each use . Its sole purpose is to collect the residues and grease that fall during cooking. If the grease falls directly onto the heating elements, it means that the tray is not properly positioned. Essential points Check the positioning : the tray must be completely horizontal and well fitted in its lower position Do not fill with oil : the manual strongly advises against filling the oil or grease reservoir, as this could cause a fire The grease is minimal : since the device operates without oil, the grease comes solely from the chicken itself - just a few drops Cleaning after cooking : empty the tray and clean it with hot water and soap using a non-abrasive sponge after the device has completely cooled down If you continue to see grease falling on the heating elements despite proper positioning of the tray, ensure that the device has enough space (at least ten centimeters on all sides) for optimal air circulation.
