isn’t any water in the lid.

the temperature sensors which are installed at the heating element. Wipe the
heating element and the surface of the housing with a damp cloth.

is thoroughly clipped; otherwise the appliance does not work.
Practical tips for frying
Dry the food carefully before putting it into the fat, tap superfluous flour, press
the breading firmly. Food containing much protein such as fish, poultry, meat and
seafood can be fried in the raw if they are well dried. Food containing little protein
such as vegetables and fruit should be coated with breadcrumbs or with batter,
hereby the pores close quickly. The crust is also ideal for frying meat, poultry, fish and
seafood.
