HOW TO CLEAN
7
Always unplug unit and allow to cool completely before cleaning.
Changing Oil:
The oil does not need to be changed after each use. We recommend changing the
oil after using approximately 5 to 8 times or sooner when frying heavily flavored or
battered foods. The oil should be completely changed when it has symptoms as fol-
lows: unpleasant odor, smoke when frying and/or the color becomes darker.
Storing Oil:
Be sure the fryer has completely cooled (approximately 4 hours) and is unplugged
prior to storing the oil.
1. Before storing the oil, be sure to filter out any food particles that may be left in
the oil.
2. To filter oil: Pour the oil into a container, and then wipe the inner pot with a paper
towel to remove any food particles. Place paper filter in the frying basket and
pour the oil through the paper filter back into the fryer or another container.
3. The oil may be stored in the fryer at room temperature (only if the fryer is used on
a regular basis) or you may store the oil in a separate container in the
refrigerator.
HOW TO USE CONTINUED
To Fry:
1. For foods that are not coated with batter, place directly in the frying basket. Be
sure not to fill fryer basket more than 2/3 full. Over filling will cause food to cook
improperly.
2. Lower basket into oil. Be sure to align the handle in the center and fold into
place.
3. For foods coated with batter, first lower frying basket into oil and then gently place
foods directly into oil. This will prevent the coated food from sticking to the
bottom of the frying basket.
4. Close the lid by pressing down until lid clicks shut. Lower the frying basket
handle.
5. See the Deep Frying Time Table on page 6 for recommended cooking times.
6. When frying is complete, lift the frying basket out of the oil by simply lifting the
frying basket handle. Now the frying basket is raised and the excess oil will drain.
7. Push the OPEN button to open the lid.
8. Carefully remove the fried food from the frying basket. Be cautious of the hot oil
that might spatter from the frying pot.
9. When finished, unplug deep fryer from the wall outlet to turn off. Allow the oil to
cool completely before moving or cleaning the appliance.

CAUTION:
• Lid pops up quickly; use the other hand to guide the lid when opening.
• Always shake frozen foods to remove ice particles prior to frying. Pat dry fresh-cut
French fries and other damp foods before frying.
CAUTION: The maximum capacity of the frying basket for food is 4 lbs.
Changing Filter:
The filter can be removed and
replaced with a new one from
the vent on the lid.
How to Clean:
1. Be sure the fryer is unplugged and has completely cooled
before cleaning.
2. Wash the bucket and lid with a sponge or dishcloth in warm
soapy water.
3. To clean the inner pot, pour warm water and dish soap into the
pot and use a sponge or dishcloth to remove grease. Empty the
pot and rinse with warm water. Dry the pot completely before
next use.
4. Clean the body of the fryer with a damp cloth and then dry.
CAUTION: Do not immerse cord, plug or deep fryer in water.
