HS07567 3 Qt Deep Fryer Assembly & Operation Instructions 8
While my food is frying, the oil
spills over the top of the oil pan. • Too much oil has been added to the oil pan. Turn off and unplug the
fryer, and allow the oil to cool completely. Empty some of the oil from the
oil pan. Do not fill oil over the max fill line.
• Too much food was added to the fryer. Carefully remove some of the
food from the fryer.
• The food or fryer basket was submerged too quickly. Carefully raise the
fryer basket, and SLOWLY lower the food/fryer basket back into the
frying oil.
• The food being fried contains too much liquid. Blot and dry the food
thoroughly before adding it to the deep fryer. For more information, see
the Frying Tips Section.
• Only add oil that is at room temperature to the fryer. Using oil that is too
cold will cause the oil to splatter.
• Condensation from the lid is spilling into the fryer. Condensation in the
form of water vapor that is released from the cooking food will collect on
the lid. If the lid is not carefully removed, the water will spill back into the
hot oil causing a violent splattering that could cause injury and burns to
bare skin. To prevent this from happening, carefully remove the lid and
set aside if the food has finished cooking. If the food as a longer cooking
time, occasionally remove the lid drain the condensation into a sink or
cup away from the fryer.
