much during
frying.
Condensation
forms on viewing
window.
Oil film buildup on

Things TO CHECK
• Food contains too much liquid. Dry food thoroughly
before placing it in fryer.
• When frying food with a high moisture content (such as
chicken, fries, etc.) change oil frequently.
• Type of oil is not suitable for deep-frying food.
Use good quality frying oil. Do not mix two different
types of oil or fat.
• Basket/food immersed too quickly. Carefully raise
basket into air.
• The use of refrigerated oil may cause excessive splat-
tering. Use room temperture oil.
• Oil pot has not been cleaned properly. See instructions
in the “Cleaning” section.
• Water vapor from food collects on window. When unit
is cold, wipe a small amount of oil on inside of viewing
window to prevent condensation buildup.
• Use plastic scouring pad to clean.
• To clean oil residue from oil pot, use a household
degreaser.
