If desired, the basket handle may be removed for cleaning. Squeeze the drain hooks and fold the handle into the basket
until the handle bars are out of the brackets. Continue squeezing to remove both pegs from the bracket holes. After
cleaning, reattach handle making sure both pegs are in the bracket holes and the handle bars are in the brackets (see
Fig. D, page 3). Fold handle into basket for storage (see Fig. B1, page 3).
note: your fryer has a grease filter in the cover. The filter does not need replacing.
4. Before reassembling unit, be sure all parts are completely dry (see page 2).
5. Always check the magnetic plug before use to assure metal items have not become attached to the magnet.
6. Periodically check the screws on the base handles and feet (Fig. A1, page 2) to be sure they are secure. Retighten,
if necessary, with a standard #2 Phillips head screwdriver.
CAUTION:
overtightening (beyond the point they are secure) can result in stripping of screws or cracking of handles
and feet.
Replacing the Timer Battery
The battery used in the deep fryer is a CR2032 3V lithium battery, which will seldom need to be replaced. If you ever need
to replace the battery, follow the instructions below.
1. Although not visible, there is an undercut located on the left and right side of the
timer. Insert a thin object (such as a butter knife) in the undercut on the right side of
the timer (Fig. h) and lift that side of the timer away from the control panel. hold that
side of the timer with your finger, to prevent it from slipping back in control panel, and
insert the knife in the undercut on the left side of the timer and lift that side away from
the control panel. now pull the timer out completely from the opening in the control
panel.
2. Turn the timer over so the back side is facing up.
Using your thumb, remove the battery compartment
cover by sliding it in the direction the arrow is pointing
(Fig. I).
3. Using a small paring knife, or some other narrow
object, carefully press near the top of the interlock spring
towards the wall of the timer to release the battery from
under the hooks (Fig. J). Use the tip of the knife to
remove the battery and discard.
4. Position new CR2032 3V lithium battery, with
writing facing up, in compartment fitting it underneath
the plastic edge (Fig. J). Push battery down on the side by the interlock spring until
the battery snaps into position under the hooks.
5. Replace battery cover. holding the cover with your thumb on the arrow,
fit the sides of the cover in the grooves on the timer and slide the door towards
the interlock spring. Turn the timer over and press the button to make sure it is
operating.
6. Place timer back in control panel so the rib on the timer is aligned with the
notch on the control panel (Fig. k).
