Assembling Your Fryer
Drain Tap Cap
Your Wolfgang Puck Deep Fryer is equipped with a Safety Drain Cap.
Your Drain Tap Cap should always be in place when using your deep
fryer or when storing oil in the tank (see figure 1). The following
directions outline the use of the Drain Tap.
1
Place Drain Tap Cap on Drain Tap by turning counter clockwise
until tight. Always ensure that your Drain Tap Lock is closed
whenever using your Deep Fryer, or when storing oil in your tank.
Never unlock the Drain Tap Lock with the Tap Cap on the Drain Tap.
2
To remove Drain Tap Cap first ensure that the Tap Lock is in the
closed position. Turn Drain Cap clockwise to remove (see figure 2)
and set aside.
3
Place container under tap and unlock the Drain Tap Lock to begin
draining oil.
Never drain hot oil, or while or deep fryer is plugged in.
4
Your Drain Tap should be washed in warm soapy water and allowed
to dry thoroughly.

Assembling your Deep Fryer for Use
1
Place the Deep Fryer housing on a stable,
level surface.
2
Ensure that all components of your Deep Fryer are
completely dry prior to use to avoid risk of injury
due to spattering.
3
Insert the oil pot into the Deep Fryer housing
ensuring that the front of the pot (the front is
indicated by the tap) is placed at an angle into
the housing. (See figure 1).
4
Place the Oil Pot Filter Screen into the Oil Pot.
Ensure that the raised end of the filter screen is
towards the front of the Fryer Pot. (See figure 2).
5
Line up the Heater Control Unit into the grooves
on the rear of the Deep Fryer housing. Your Deep
Fryer is equipped with a safety microswitch which
will not allow the Heater Control Unit to work
unless it is properly seated into both grooves in
the Housing. (See figure 3).
6
Add the appropriate amount of oil to the Oil Pot.
Do not fill with oil above the maximum level or
below the minimum level marked on the inside
of the Deep Fryer pot. (See figure 4).
7
Attach the Magnetic Release Power Cord into the
receptacle on the Heater Control Unit. Only use
the approved receptacle marked
MC-316
in your
unit. To attach the receptacle ensure that the
marking “THIS SIDE IS UP” is facing up in order
to line up with the plug receptacle on the
Heater Control Unit. (See Figure 5).
8
Unfold the Basket handle and ensure that it is
locked into place. The ends of the handle rods
must be inserted in the loop of the Basket and
placed behind the metal stem in order to lock
in place.
A serious burn injury can occur if your
handle is not properly locked in place.
(See figure 6).
9
Place the Basket into the Oil Pot. (See figure 7).
10
To drain oil, lift and rest the Frying Basket on the
Oil Pot.
