OIL LEVEL  
Visioclean is a fryer with variable oil level  
allowing you to fry varied foods.  
You can adapt the quantity of oil, 1 or 2  
litres, to what you are cooking and cut  
down on the amount of fat.  
Your Visioclean fryer also has the  
advantage that it can be completely taken  
apart to allow cleaning of all component  
parts.  
- The lid, basket, bowl and housing can all  
go into the dishwasher.  
- Your fryer's anti-odour filter can also be  
cleaned, without even detaching it from the  
lid and can also be put in the dishwasher.  
- The front of the control panel can be  
wiped clean with a slightly dampened  
sponge.  
Preparation for use  
Cleaning the fryer  
Remove the protective film from the  
underside of the viewing window  
(depending on model).  
Clean all parts (except the control panel)  
with a sponge and washing-up liquid or  
put them through the dishwasher - Fig.  
Dry them off.  
For good visibility through the  
window, see chapiter Cleaning.  
5
Never immerse the control panel  
and cord in water.  
Ensure that the anti-odour filter is  
dry before frying.  
Oil to use  
Use an oil recommended for deep frying.  
For best results we recommend blended  
vegetable oil. For sunflower oil, groundnut  
oil, or soya oil, ensure the oil is changed  
after every 5 uses.  
If you are using a solid vegetable fat:  
Cut it into pieces and put it at the bottom  
of the bowl (without the basket).  
Place the thermostat on the position 150°C  
for melting it then follow the

- out of the reach of children.  
Setting the timer is only possible  
when the temperature of the oil is reached.  
 
Cooking  
Watch while cooking  
Maintenance  
Storing the oil  
During cooking, it is normal for the  
temperature light to go on and off.  
It is normal for viewing  
condensation to obscure the window at  
the start of cooking.  
Turn off the fryer and wait until the oil has  
completely cooled.  
Use a skimming ladle to pick out the little  
15  
pieces of food remaining in the fat - Fig.  
Leave the fat in the fryer or keep it in a  
separate container in a cool place (recom-  
mended if you do not use the fryer often).  
Do not use metal tools.  
Taking food out  
Lift the handle horizontally to raise the  
basket until you hear a “click” as it locks  
2
- Fig.  
Filtering the oil  
Open the lid.  
Take out the basket making sure that the  
rod is completely out of the bowl - Fig.  
Serve.  
Use a filter paper (available from approved  
Service Centres).  
Wait until the oil is lukewarm.  
Carefully empty the oil into a saucepan.  
Clean the inside of the bowl and dry.  
Place a filter paper at the bottom of the  
basket.  
12  
Do not touch:  
- the viewing window, the glass may be hot.  
- the steam vented at the back of the fryer,  
will be hot.  
Place the basket and filter paper in the  
fryer (handle in raised position).  
Carefully pour the oil back into the bowl  
The buzzer can be cancelled by  
pressing on the timer touchpad.  
16  
- Fig.  
For a second frying  
Correct the level of oil if necessary, with  
the same type of oil.  
Wait until the temperature light goes out  
before lowering the second batch of food.  
To reduce the circulation of smells:  
don't leave the lid open for too long.  
Throw away the filter paper and clean the  
basket or use a filter pot with a maximum  
capacity of 2.4 L (available from approved  
17  
Service Centres) - Fig.  
The oil must be filtered regularly.  
Crumbs falling away from foods tend to  
burn and cause the fat to deteriorate  
more quickly which in time will increase  
the risks of it catching fire.  
Stopping the appliance  
Once frying is completed, place the  
thermostat/control button on to position O  
For the filter to work properly,  
change it after every 80 times you cook.  
13  
- Fig.  
For crispier chips, open the lid  
immediately after draining.  
Changing the oil  
Do not pour used oil into the sink. Let it  
cool down and put it out with your  
household rubbish. If you add oil, make  
sure you use the same type.  
Season food with salt and pepper  
once out of the fryer to avoid getting into  
the oil/fat.  
Change the oil every 8 to 12 uses  
maximum. A "clean" oil keeps the  
flavour quality and lightness of foods and  
cuts down on smells.  
Unplug the appliance.  
Let the fryer cool down (1 to 2 hours).  
Roll the cord behind the fryer.  
To move the fryer, use the carrying handles  
14  
- Fig.  
Changing the carbon filter  
Open the fryer's lid.  
Never move the fryer with hot oil or  
fat inside.  
Take out the filter using the holding tabs  
18  
- Fig.  
 
Replace the new filter in the lid.  
For the filter to work properly,  
change it after every 80 times you fry.  
Cleaning the removable bowl  
The browning and scratches which may  
appear after long use are normal.  
We guarantee that the non-stick coating  
complies with regulations concerning  
materials in contact with foodstuffs.  
You can clean your bowl in the  
dishwasher. Be careful not to damage the  
coating with the racks in the dishwasher.  
Avoid distorting your bowl (particularly  
the outsides) through knocks or a fall.  
To retain the non-stick qualities for  
as long as possible, do not use metal  
tools.  
If the filter falls into the hot fat,  
you have to change the fat and the filter.  
Cleaning  
Visioclean is very easy to clean thanks to  
5
its exclusive system - Fig.  
TOTAL MAGICLEAN  
You can put the following into the  
DISHWASHER:  
- basket,  
If however your bowl becomes  
misshapen, obtain a replacement from  
your approved Service Centre.  
- lid (with FILTER),  
- bowl,  
- housing, after removing the control  
panel,  
Take care the dishwasher rotating  
blades do not damage any of the fryer  
parts.  
Cleaning the window  
For good visibility, put the lid through the  
dishwasher or clean it with a sponge  
19  
dipped in washing-up liquid - Fig.  
Leave the window to dry in the  
surrounding air or wipe it with a clean  
cotton cloth. Replace the lid.  
Clean the window each time the  
fryer has been used.  
Position the lid at 45° in the  
dishwasher, with the window upwards.  
 
Cooking times  
The cooking times and the quantities of fat are only a guide, they may vary depending on quantities  
and personal taste. For thicker foods (marked with an asterisk) and when cooking with 1 litre of  
oil, turn the food halfway through frying to ensure even cooking on both sides.  
Foods recommended for frying in 1 litre of oil can be cooked in 2 litres of oil if preferred, using the  
same cooking temperature and time.  
Cooks tip : when cooking battered foods or doughnuts, remove the wire basket to prevent food  
sticking to it. Take great care when handling the food and use tongs. Gradually place the food in  
the hot oil, submerging it an inch at a time to prevent it from sinking straight away.
