COOKING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
• Never fill the cooking pot above the marked
“Max Fill” line. Doing so could result in the
unit becoming top-heavy and creating an
unsafe/unstable condition.
• Never fill the oil to less than the Minimum
Oil Fill Line as it will cause the oil
temperature to rise too fast.
• Check your oil thermometer before each
use by inserting it into a pot of boiling water
and ensuring that it registers approximately
212º ± 20ºF (100º ± 10ºC). If it does not
function properly, obtain a replacement oil
thermometer specified by the manufacturer
before using the appliance.
• Do not place an empty cooking pot on the
appliance while in operation. Use caution
when placing anything in the cooking pot
while the appliance is in operation.
