WARNING
:
Although your deep fryer
has a cool touch exterior, to avoid
possible injury or burns, never touch any
metal parts on the deep fryer because
they may be hot.
• Do
not
fill the frying basket with
frozen food when basket is immersed
in the hot oil.
• Place the food in the frying basket. Do
not
drop food into hot cooking oil. Do
not
overfill it and never exceed the
maximum quantities. For optimum
results and shorter frying time, fry
smaller quantities.
• The frying basket has a “MAX” line on
it. Do
not
fill the frying basket with
food over this line.
• Do
not
fill the basket higher than the
max line on the basket with frozen
food.
WARNING:
When frying foods, remove
the frying basket from the deep fryer
before filling with frozen food because oil
will spatter and can cause burns.
WARNING
:
When frying frozen foods
such as French Fries, you should
NOT
exceed 1/2 Lb. 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.
CAUTION:
This unit should not be used
to boil water.
• Always use the frying basket to fry food.
• Always close the cover during frying.
• When the oil is pre-heated, ready
indicator light will come on indicating
the desired oil temperature has been
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 cover carefully.
• It is normal for steam to escape through
the sides of the cover while frying.
• Avoid standing too close to the deep
fryer while it is cooking.
WARNING:
When opening the cover
after frying, lift up the cover slightly, then
wait to allow steam to escape before
opening the cover completely. Keep face
away from unit to avoid burns caused by
escaping steam.
Frying Food
• To avoid condensation buildup on the
cover window - rub a little cooking oil
on window.
• Do not mix different oils or new and old
oil together.
• Replace oil regularly. In general, oil
used to fry food with protein, (such as
poultry, meat and fish) should not be
reused. 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.
