Warning: In order to avoid injury or
burns, never touch any metal parts on
the deep fryer because they may be hot.
Filling the Frying Basket
• Do not fill the frying basket when it is
immersed in the hot oil.
• Place the food in the frying basket.
Do not drop the food into the hot
cooking oil. Do not overfill it and
never exceed the “MAX” line on the
frying basket. For optimum results
and shorter frying time, fry smaller
quantities.
• The frying basket has a “MAX” line
on it. Do not fill the basket with food
over this line.
Warning: When frying frozen foods,
remove the frying basket from the deep
fryer before filling because oil will spatter
and cause burns.
Caution: When frying frozen foods such
as french fries, you should not exceed
1.25 Lb. (564 gr.) or less. Clean off any
ice from frozen food prior to frying.
Failure to do so may cause fryer to
overflow when food is placed in oil.
Caution: Never plug in the control panel
when it is not assembled to the fryer
body. Do not immerse the control panel,
power cord or plug in water or any other
liquid.
Frying Food
• Always use the frying basket to fry food.
• Always close the lid cover during frying.
• When the oil is pre-heated, ready
indicator light will come on indicating
that the desired temperature is reached.
• Slowly lower the frying basket into the
hot oil. Lowering the frying basket too
quickly can result in the oil overflowing
and splashing.
• Replace the lid carefully.
• It is normal for steam to escape through
the sides of the lid while frying.
• Avoid standing too close to the deep
fryer while it is working.
Warning: When opening the lid cover
after frying, lift the lid slightly, then wait to
allow steam to escape before removing
the lid completely. Keep face away from
unit to avoid burns caused by escaping
steam.
• Press the power button to turn the
power off.
• Unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet.
• Lift up the lid cover slowly and wait to
allow steam to escape before
removing the lid cover completely.
• Lift up the frying basket by the
handle. Place it on the oil container
and allow the food to drain for a
minute.
• Once the oil has drained from the
frying basket, the basket may be
lifted off and the food served.
Warning: Always let the deep fryer cool
completely (approximately 2 hours)
before cleaning or storing. Never carry
or move the deep fryer with hot oil inside.
At the End of Cooking
• Do not mix different oils or new and
old oil together.
• Replace oil regularly. In general, oil
will be tainted fast when frying food
containing a lot of protein, (such as
poultry, meat and fish). When oil is
used mainly to fry potatoes and is
filtered after each use, it can be used
up to 8 to 10 times, but do not use the
same oil for more than 6 months.
• Always replace all oil as soon as it
starts foaming when heated or when
color becomes dark or when it has a
rancid smell or taste or becomes
syrupy.
• Make sure that the food to be fried is
dry.
• Remove loose ice from frozen food
before frying.
• To cook evenly, pieces should be the
same size and thickness.
• Thicker pieces will take longer to cook.
Frying Tips
Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.
Prior to First Use, Clean the Unit
Thoroughly
• All components with the exception of the
electrical parts, can be washed in warm
soap water. Dry thoroughly before use.
• Use basket handle to remove the frying
basket. Always make sure the basket
handle is securely attached to the
basket. Attach the handle to the frying
basket, insert the metal part of the
handle inside the metal bracket on the
frying basket. (Fig. 1)
• Lift the control panel with heating
element out of its slots by pushing it up
from the bottom with one hand while
holding the body of the deep fryer with
your the other hand.
• Remove the oil container.
• Clean the oil container and the frying
basket with hot water, dishwashing liquid
or other non-poisonous detergent and
non-abrasive sponge.
Warning: Never immerse the control
panel in water or any other liquids.
Warning: All components must be
completely dried before filling with oil or
using. Special care must be taken to
ensure the washable oil filter in the lid is
completely dry, otherwise the filter will not
function properly and may lead to steam
being trapped within the fryer during use.
Warning: Never exceed "MAX" line
when filling the basket with food.
Using for the First Time
Warning:
Never plug in the control panel
when it is not installed in the fryer body
with heating element in the oil container.
Do not immerse the control panel, cord or
plug in water.
Warning: This unit should not be used to
boil water.
Warning: Always let the fryer cool
completely for 2 hours before taking it apart
for cleaning. Never carry or move the
deep fryer with hot oil inside. Before
cleaning, always make sure the plug is not
in the wall socket.
• Use blended vegetable oil, pure corn oil
or canola (rapeseed) oil. Do not use
olive oil, margarine, lard or drippings.
• The oil level must always be maintained
between the minimum and the
maximum levels marked inside the oil
container. Check the oil level before
each use. For best results, Do NOT
exceed “MAX” level for cooking oil.
(Fig. 2)
• Never mix different oils and fats together.
Do not mix old and new oil.
Filling the Oil Container
