They lift the Basket Handle and Frying Basket out of the Fryer. If it is a little
tight, gently wiggle the handle left to right and the Basket Handle and Frying
Basket will lift out.
4. Pour between 1.9 – 2.5 litres/ quarts of oil into fryer. Peanut, soya or other
high quality vegetable oil is recommended. Ensure that the oil level is
maintained between the MIN and MAX markings on the inside of the Fryer.
IMPORTANT: DO NOT USE THE FRYER WITHOUT OIL. The Fryer will be
damaged if heated dry.
5. Smear the Viewing Window with a little oil to reduce condensation during frying.
6. Close the Cover.
7. Plug the Magnetic Power Cord into the back of the Fryer. The red power
indicator light will illuminate.

ready indicator light will go out when the Fryer has reached the correct
temperature. NOTE: The Indicator Light will cycle on and off during the
cooking cycle to maintain the optimum temperature.
9. Place dry food into Frying Basket. Do not exceed 2/3 of the Frying Basket
capacity. If using frozen food, do not use more than ½ the Frying Basket
capacity.
NOTE:
- All foods should be patted dry before frying.
- Use uniform size pieces of food so they will cook evenly.
- Do not add wet foods to cooking oil as even small amounts of water will
cause oil to splatter.
10. Open the Cover and replace the Frying Basket and Handle by placing the
grooves in the handle hinge area (black section) over the tabs in the handle
slot on the Fryer.
11. Close the Cover.
12. Lower the Basket into the oil by sliding the Frying Basket Handle Release/Lock
Button toward you and folding the handle down.
13. Take note of the time and refer to the Frying Guide on the exterior wall of the
Fryer or the Frying Table in this booklet.
NOTE: These are guidelines only and the cooking time will depend on
the size of pieces being cooked and the temperature of the food.
