OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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 baskets have a “MAX” line
on them.
Do not
fill the baskets 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. (567 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 baskets 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.
