How to Use
FRYING:
Filling the container with oil
Use only blended vegetable oil. DO NOT use groundnut oil, sunflower
oil, soy bean oil, olive oil, lard or dripping.
Never mix different oils and fats together
Do not mix old and new oil together as this will only spoil the new oil in
a short time.
The oil can be stored in the fryer with the lid closed, which keeps it
fresh and clean, but the appliance must be unplugged from the socket.
Check the oil before each use, and make sure maximum oil level is not
more than 1/3 of the pots capacity.
Set the temperature dial to

setting.
Filling the frying basket

the maximum capacity

remove any loose ice. Follow the instruction on the frozen food packet
on whether to cook the food from frozen or thawed.

Using your fryer
Gently lower the frying basket into the oil.
Carefully place lid over the fryer to prevent
oil splatter.
When done frying, wait for the steam to
escape, then carefully remove the glass lid.
Using an oven mitt, gently lift the frying
basket out of the oil.
Mount the frying basket by hanging the
bracket onto the base (See Figure 4).
Allow frying basket contents to drain
excess oil and cool.
Empty the contents of the frying basket on
to a plate line with a paper towel to soak up excess oil.
After removing the basket, skim the oil and remove any small pieces of
food.
To remove any fine food debris, such as breadcrumbs, follow the
instructions on filtering the oil. If solid vegetable oil is used, you need to
do this before the oil hardens.
Store the oil in the fryer with the lid closed, which keeps it fresh and
clean. If the fryer is not to be used for long time, store the oil in a
separate container, and clean the inside of the fryer as instructed.
Unplug the fryer after every use
