Wolfgang Puck BDFR0040 - Manual (Page 5)

Before Your First Use
Carefully unpack the Deep Fryer and remove all packaging materials. Remove
the Deep Fryer lid, oil pan, oil pot filter screen, frying basket and control panel.
Wash the Fryer lid, basket, oil pan and housing in warm soapy water. Never
immerse the Control Panel and Power Cord, simply wipe with a damp cloth.
Do not use harsh or abrasive cleansers on any part of the Deep Fryer. Always
ensure all components are completely dry prior to first use as water will cause
severe spattering of the oil.
Warning: Do not clean the Deep Fryer by heating soapy water in it because
there is danger that the water could overflow. Do not immerse the control
panel or power cord in water. Reassemble the unit after cleaning.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Your deep fryer comes equipped with a removable
screen located in the oil pan at the drain. This will prevent large pieces of food
from becoming caught in the drain tap which could cause leaks. Please follow
the below important safeguards when draining oil:
7 8
1 Prior to adding oil ensure that your drain tap is in the closed position and
that your screen is properly seated in the oil pan drain and free of any
food debris.
2 Never heat oil in your deep fryer without first ensuring that your drain tap
is not leaking, and that your drain cap is securely in place. See page 1 1 for
proper installation.
3 Never drain hot oil, or while your deep fryer is plugged in. Disconnect the
plug from the wall outlet first and allow the oil to completely cool.
4 Never attempt to remove the filter screen by the screen itself as this will
permanently damage the screen. Always grasp from the metal tube and
pull straight up.
5 To clean the filter screen hold the filter by the metal tube and wash in
warm soapy water. Flush water through the tube to push food particles
out of the screen Never apply pressure to the filter screen itself to avoid
damage.
6 Should your screen become damaged discontinue use and contact our
customer service department for replacement.
