Before First Use
This appliance is designed for household and indoor use only.
It is not intended for commercial use.
If the fryer is used for the first time, follow the cleaning
instructions and clean the deep fryer first.
How To Operate
1. Pour a good quality corn or vegetable oil into the unit until it
reaches between the ‘MIN’ and ‘MAX’ oil level mark indicated
on the inside wall, approx. .75 quarts. Never operate the
fryer without oil or with insufficient oil.
2. Attach the magnetic end of the power cord to the deep fryer
and plug the other end into a wall outlet.
3. Set the temperature dial to the desired temperature setting.
The red indicator light will come on.
4. When the deep fryer has reached the set temperature (after
about 5-7 minutes), the red indicator light will go out. Open
the lid. NOTE: The indicator light will go on and off as the
temperature fluctuates.
5. Attach the handle to the basket.
6. Put food in the basket and slowly lower it into the oil. Close
the lid.
7. The frying time and temperature chart on this page is for
reference only and should be adjusted for different quantities
of food and your own taste.
8. When the cooking process is finished, turn the temperature
dial counter-clockwise to the OFF position. Open the lid.
9. Lift the basket up and rest the hook on the side of the oil tank.
This allows the excessive oil to drain into the unit. The food is
then ready for serving. NOTE: To avoid early degradation of
the oil, do not add salt or spices above the oil or during frying.
Cleaning
1. Always unplug the appliance and let the appliance and oil cool
down to room temperature before cleaning.
2. Drain and strain the oil through a cheesecloth or strainer and
put oil into a suitable container.
3. Wash the basket and lid in warm soapy water. Dry the parts
thoroughly after cleaning.
4. Never immerse the oil tank. Clean the inside with a soft soapy
cloth. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Wipe the outer surface of the
deep fryer with a soft damp cloth. Never use abrasive pads or
alcohol.
5. Be sure all parts are dry after washing and before use.
