7.   Preheat oil for 15 minutes. Note: occasionally you may hear a pop or clicking sound while the fryer is preheating. This is normal 

and a sign of fast heat up. you may also notice this sound as the unit cools down.

8.   Gently place 1 to 6 cups of food into unit. Use scoop to lessen spattering of hot oil. 
 

Note:

 If the plug accidentally detaches from the fryer during operation, reattach the cord following step 5 on page 2. Use extreme 

caution as unit will be hot.

9.   occasionally stir food gently while frying to prevent foods from sticking together. Use scoop provided or other heat-resistant utensil.
10.  When food reaches desired brownness, lift and drain with scoop (refer to chart below for recommended cooking times). Place food 

on absorbent paper. Season to taste. Repeat steps 8, 9, and 10 for additional servings.

CAUTION:

 To avoid risk of burns, do not touch the aluminum portion of the handle when unit is hot. only the plastic grip in the center 

portion of the handle may be grasped.

Care and Cleaning

1.   Remove plug from wall outlet and then from deep fryer. Then, allow oil and fryer to cool completely in a safe place.
2.   After unit and oil have cooled completely, empty cooking oil or cover unit with storage lid.
3.   Wash unit and scoop with warm water and mild detergent. Rinse thoroughly. 

Never immerse unit in water or other liquid, or wash 

in dishwasher.

4.  

Dry fryer completely. 

even a few drops of water in the oil can super-heat and turn into a volatile steam that may cause hot oil to 

spatter, boil over, or even erupt out of the deep fryer.

5.  Do not use steel wool scouring pads or abrasive kitchen cleaners on the nonstick finish.

6.   occasionally clean the interior of unit with a commercial cleanser designed for nonstick surfaces, such as dip-it* destainer. Follow 

manufacturer’s directions.

7.  Store the cord in a clean, dry location away from metal objects. Always check the magnetic plug before use to assure metal items 

have not become attached.
