NOTE:
Never turn on the fryer with an
empty Oil Reservoir. Always use your
fryer on a flat, heat resistant surface.
1. Attach magnetic
end of Break-away
cord assembly
directly to the fryer
socket (See figure
1).
This should be done
prior to plugging the
cord into the wall outlet.
The magnetic end
of the cord is
designed to only go on one way. Be
sure the side stating "THIS SIDE
UP" is facing up.
2. Remove lid.
3. Remove Frying
Basket, pull Basket
Handle up until it
clicks into the
horizontal position
(Fig. 2).
4. Make sure the Oil
Reservoir is seated
in place with the
Basket Hook on
the side opposite
the Control Panel
Assembly. The Oil Reservoir is also
marked indicating which side is the
“Heater Side”. Pour cooking oil into
Oil Reservoir until it reaches
between “MIN” and “MAX” marks
inside reservoir. DO NOT OVER
OR UNDER FILL.
5. Smear a little oil on the inside of
the Viewing Window. This prevents
condensation, which impedes the
view.
6. Place lid onto the unit.
7. Make sure that fryer is off and
insert plug into 120 volts AC outlet.
To turn fryer on, press ON/OFF
button once. The power indicator
will come on. Turn Temperature
Control Knob to desired
temperature. The Ready Light will
come on when the set temperature
is reached.
8. After oil has been preheated,
remove lid and place Frying Basket
onto Basket Hook inside Oil
Reservoir.
CAUTION:
Keep the Folding Handle in
the locked position.
9. Place food inside Frying Basket (Do
not stack food). Place lid back onto
the unit. Lower Frying Basket into
Oil Reservoir.
CAUTION:
Always replace lid before
immersing food in oil. Do not immerse
or drain food with lid removed.
For cooking times, see fry chart on
page 7 or use the recommended times
in your recipe.
10. After time is up, lift Frying Basket
and hang basket onto Basket Hook
in Oil Reservoir. To remove excess
grease and retain crispness, let food
drain in Frying Basket at least 10-20
seconds. Open lid, then lift Frying
Basket by handle and pour contents
onto plate covered with paper
towels before serving.
11. When finished cooking, shut down
fryer by pushing the ON/OFF
button to the OFF position.

How to Use Your Deep Fryer
5
Preparing Your Fryer for Use
• Fill the unit to the maximum or
minimum capacity lines only.
• Do not over fill the basket. To
achieve quality results deep frying
food needs to be surrounded by oil.
Too much food causes the oil
temperature to drop, resulting in
“soggy” food.
• Be sure that all ice crystals are
removed from the food and food is
completely dry. Excessive water and
ice can cause the oil to splatter
and/or overflow.
• Coated foods (bread crumbs,batters,
etc.) are best for deep frying. The
coating acts as a protective layer
keeping food moist on the inside
and crisp on the outside.
• Fry foods at the correct temperature
for best results. This will prevent
burning and give you even colored,
crispy food.
Before fryer is used for the first time;
remove all packaging materials
including plastic bag covering Fryer
Basket and notice inside.
Make sure fryer is unplugged. Wash
the Frying Basket and Removable Oil
Reservoir in hot soapy water. Gently
wipe the Cool-Zone Heating Element
with a damp cloth. Dry all parts
thoroughly. Your fryer is now ready to
use.
CAUTION:
Do not immerse fryer,
cord, plugs or Control Panel Assembly
in water.
