4. General notes
This user manual contains important informaon about the handling of the VITO® X-series. Please read this
document carefully and before using your VITO®. Keep this manual available for more informaon.
VITO® is an oil ltraon system, designed for the cleaning of frying oil / shortening. Frying will contaminate the oil with burned
parcles. VITO® allows to clean the oil straightly out of the fryer. Filtering with VITO® prolongs the lifeme of the oil.
We recommend ltraon with VITO® once or twice a day. The VITO® parcle lter can be used several mes before it has to be
changed. As soon as the oil can’t be vacuumed anymore or the lter basket for the parcles is full, the content should be disposed
according to local regulaons.
5. Safety guidelines / safety informaon / symbol explanaon
Wrong treatment of the VITO® can lead to dangers and injuries. The following should be observed. Possible dangers are marked with
these signs:

13.4 WEEE (Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment) Statement
To protect the global environment and as an environmentalist, VITO AG must remind you that: Under the
European Union (“EU“) Direcve on Waste Electrical and Electronic Equipment, Direcve 2012/19/EU, which
takes eect on February 14 , 2014, products of “electrical and electronic equipment“ cannot be discarded as
municipal waste anymore and manufacturers of covered electronic equipment will be obligated to take back
such products at the end of their useful life. VITO AG will comply with the product take back requirements at
the end of life of VITO®-branded products that are sold into the EU. You can return these products to local
collecon points.
14. Storage recommendaons for parcle lters
During storage do not expose the parcle lters to extreme temperature or humidity,
for example near a heat source, air condioning or direct sunlight. Heat, cold and humidity
have a negave eect on the properes of the parcle lter, especially aer removing or opening the bag packing.
In any case the parcle lter must not be exposed to frost, as this can cause damage to the microstructure
of the lter, which impairs the funconality of the parcle lter.
• Store dry at 60-65% relave humidity
• Room temperature 24°C ± 5°C (78°F ± 40°F)
• Do NOT put weight on pallets and lter parcels
• Avoid sudden temperature changes
• Store in the cardboard packaging in sealed bag
• Maximum height of the lter stack 185cm (6 ) on pallet
Under observance of the above condions, the storage period will be 3 years.
