FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why won’t my deep fryer turn on?
The Control Panel features a “Safety Switch” that must be mounted properly on the mounting bracket of
the body for unit to power on (see Step 2, pg.4). Power light will illuminate when control panel is
mounted correctly.
How much oil do I need to use?
Fryer will require approximately 0.79 gallon (3.0 liters) of oil max and 0.66 gallon (2.5 liters) of oil
minimum. The MAX fi ll line is the maximum amount of oil that can safely be used in this unit.
What type of oil should I use?
Peanut oil is recommended because of the great taste and higher smoke point but any common cooking
oil may be used.
Should I keep the lid on during use?
Yes, the lid helps retain heat, and keeps splatter inside unit.
Can an extension cord be used with this unit?
No, extension cords will lose electric current resulting in increased cooking time and decreased
performance. Extension cords can also pose a trip hazard.
Can the electric fryer be used outdoors?
Outdoor use is not recommended. If you do not want to use the unit in your house please use in a
garage or covered patio to prevent fryer from being exposed to rain showers.
