COOKING WITH YOUR
KAMBROOK DEEP FRYER
Before first use: Remove any promotional
labels and/or packaging materials from the
deep fryer.Wash the wire mesh frying
basket in warm soapy water, then rinse
and dry thoroughly.Wipe the cooking
bowl with a soft, damp cloth and dry
thoroughly. Ensure the bowl is completely
free of water before adding any oil.
CAUTION: Always add the required
amount of oil to the deep fryer BEFORE
switching the power on at the outlet.
1. Place the deep fryer on a dry, level
surface, ensuring the deep fryer is not
close to the edge of the bench top and
that the cord is not hanging over the
edge (refer to safety instructions, page 6).
2. Lift the lid off the deep fryer
3. Remove the frying basket.
4. Pour up to 1.2 litres of good quality oil
into the deep fryer cooking bowl.
WARNING: Do NOT exceed the
maximum oil level of 1.2 litres.
5. Plug the power cord into a 230/240
volt power outlet. Ensure the power
cord is fully extended. Switch on at
power outlet.The red ‘Power’ light
will illuminate.
6. Preheat the oil by moving the
Temperature Control Slide Selector to
the right to the desired temperature
setting.The green temperature ‘Ready’
light will illuminate to indicate that the
oil is heating.When the oil has reached
the required temperature, the green
temperature ‘Ready’ light will go out.
Allow the green temperature ‘Ready’
light to cycle on and off several times so
the oil can reach an even temperature.
NOTE:The green temperature ‘Ready’ light will
continue to cycle on and off to maintain the
selected temperature throughout cooking.
7. Once the oil has preheated, place food
into the fryer basket. Do not overfill
basket.
8. Place the frying basket into the deep
fryer and carefully lower into the oil.
NOTE
• Care should be taken when lowering food in the
frying basket into the hot oil. Some splattering
may occur.
• Some recipes may require the basket to be
lowered into the oil first, then the food added.
Do this with care and avoid oil splattering.
9. At the end of the cooking time, move
the Temperature Control Slide Selector
to the left. Switch the power off at the
power outlet and remove the power
plug.

10. Suspend the frying basket, on the side
of the deep fryer, above the hot oil.
Allow the basket to stand in this
position for a short time to drain
any excess oil from the food.
11. Lift the basket upwards to remove and
shake the food from the basket onto
kitchen paper placed a heat resistant
plate to absorb any excess oil.
WARNING:
1.This product must be filled with oil to
the correct marked level.The product
will be severely damaged if heated
without oil in the bowl.
2. Solid oil products, such as butter,
margarine or animal fats of any kind
should not be used in the deep fryer as
they increase the chance of fire hazard.
3.Water and oil do not mix – never add
any water or other liquid to hot oil.
Even small amounts of water will cause
the oil to splatter.
4. Avoid the use of extension cords.
Serious hot oil burns may result from
a deep fryer being pulled off a table,
counter or bench top. Do not allow the
cord to hang off the edge of a table,
counter or bench top where it may be
grabbed by children, or become
entangled by the user. Never leave the
deep fryer unattended while in use.
5. Ensure cord is fully extended while in use.
6.The lid must be removed when
deep frying.
CAUTION:
1.The deep fryer will generate a lot of
heat and steam during and after the
cooking process. Avoid touching
hot surfaces.
2. EXTREME CAUTION MUST BE USED
WHEN MOVING A PRODUCT
CONTAINING HOT OIL, OTHER
HOT LIQUIDS OR HOT FOODS OF
ANY TYPES.The oil in the deep fryer
should be allowed to cool completely
before moving the appliance.
3. Use long handled tongs or utensils
when turning food in the hot oil to
avoid contact with any splattering.
NOTE:
• Do not overfill the basket with food, too many
items will lower the oil temperature causing food
to absorb oil and not cook properly.
• Ensure the oil has reached the selected
temperature before lowering foods into the oil.
Food cooked in oil that has not reached the correct
temperature will absorb more oil and become soggy.
• Food should be of uniform size when placed
in the basket to ensure even cooking.Wet foods
should be patted dry to decrease the amount
of water coming into contact with the oil.
• Foods such as chips and wedges should be
placed into the frying basket before lowering into
the hot oil.When using foods coated in batter,
lower the frying basket into the oil then use tongs
to carefully add the coated food directly into the
hot oil.This avoids coated foods from sticking to
the frying basket. Use the frying basket to remove
the food at the end of cooking.
