Important Cord and plug InformatIon

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. 

DO NOT USE WITH AN EXTENSION CORD.

Do not allow the cord to run underneath or around the unit. The magnetic cord may not detach easily if the cord is positioned 

in this fashion.

Before First Use

of the deep fryer (Fig. A1) and read the 

instructions carefully.
Remove all packing material and disas-

semble unit for cleaning. Take the fry/

steam basket out of the unit. Remove 

the cord assembly from the basket and 

set aside. Then, lift the control assembly 

out of the unit. Wipe the control assem-

bly (control unit with heating element) 

with  a  damp  cloth. 

Never  immerse 

the control assembly, cord, or plug 

in water.

 Lift the removable pot out of 

the  base  and  wash  the  pot,  fry/steam 

basket, and fryer cover in dishwasher 

or in warm, sudsy water. Rinse and dry 

thoroughly.

heating can occur if the unit is heated 

without  oil  or  water  or  with  insuf-

ficient  oil  or  water.  It  can  also  occur 

if using solid fat or older oil that has

Important Fryer Guidelines

u

 

Use deep fryer only on a clean, dry, level, stable, and heat-resistant surface, away from countertop edge.

Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. hot oil can cause serious and painful 

burns.

To avoid the risk of electrocution or severe disfiguring electrical burns, do not let children handle or put electrical cords 

or plugs in their mouths.

To avoid the risk of electrocution or electrical burns, do not let the control unit, cord, or plug come in contact with 

water or other liquid.

never use the deep fryer without the removable pot.

CAUTION: OIl AND WATER DO NOT MIX. 

The combination can be dangerous. When the oil is heated, any 

water droplets in the oil super-heat, becoming a volatile steam that can cause hot oil to spatter, boil over, or even erupt 

out of the deep fryer. 

Hot oil can cause severe burns!

  Accordingly, before pouring oil into the removable pot be sure that the pot and all parts are COMPlETEly 

dry. Before placing food in deep fryer, always remove ice crystals and excess moisture from food by patting dry 

with toweling.
