Cooking with your Kambrook
Deep Fryer
Before for use: Remove any promotional
labels and/or packaging materials from the
deep fryer.Wash the fryer basket &
removable bowl in warm soapy water,
then rinse and dry thoroughly.
Caution: Always add the
required amount of oil to the deep
fryer BEFORE switching the power
on at the power point.
Place the fryer on a dry, level surface,
ensure the fryer is not close to the edge
of the benchtop or that the cord is
hanging over the edge.
Fit the fryer basket handle securely to the
mesh fryer basket. (see page 5, Fig A)
1. Press the Lid Release Button and open
the lid to the vertical position.
2. Pour up to 2
1
⁄
2
litres of good quality oil
into the deep fryer. (The amount of oil
should not be below minimum mark or
exceed maximum mark printed inside
of the fryer bowl).
Warning: Do not exceed the
maximum mark with oil.
3. Close the lid firmly until it locks.
4. Plug the power cord into a 230/240
volt power point, ensuring the
temperature control dial is in the ‘0’
position. Ensure cord is fully extended.
Switch on at power point.
5. Preheat the oil by turning the
Temperature Control Dial to desired
temperature setting.The red ‘Temp’
light will illuminate to indicate the oil is
heating.When the oil has reached the
set temperature, the red temperature
light will turn off. Allow the ‘Temp’ light
to cycle on and off a few times in
order for the oil to reach an even
temperature.
The red ‘Temp’ light will continue to cycle on and
off in order to maintain the set temperature
throughout cooking.
6. Once the oil has preheated, place food
into the fryer basket.
7. Lower basket into the deep fryer.
8. Close the lid firmly until it locks into
position.
9. Once the required cooking time has
ceased, turn the Temperature Control
Dial to the ‘0’ position (thermostat
off). Switch the power off at the power
point.
10. Press the Lid Release Button to open
the lid.
11. Holding the handle on the fryer basket
lift the basket upwards to remove.
Allow the basket to stand for a short
time to drain.
12. Place food on a heat resistant plate or
tray lined with kitchen paper to absorb
any excess oil.
Warning
1. This product must be filled with
oil to the correct marked level.
The product will be severely
damaged if heated dry.
2. Solid oil products, such as butter,
margarine or animal fats of any
kind should not be used in the
deep fryer as they increase the
chance of a fire hazard.

3. Water and oil do not mix – never
add any water or other liquid to
hot oil. Even small amounts of
water will cause the oil to splatter.
4. Avoid the use of extension cords.
Serious hot oils burns may result
from a deep fryer being pulled off
a bench top. Do not allow the cord
to hang off the edge of the bench
top where it may be grabbed by
children, or become entangled by
the user. Never leave the deep
fryer unattended whilst in use.
5. Ensure cord is fully extended
while in use.
Caution:
1. The deep fryer will generate a lot
of heat and steam during and
after the cooking. To prevent the
risk of burns, do not touch or
block the steam ventilation area
on the lid.
2. Take care when opening the lid.
This product generates heat and
steam at a high temperature,
which will escape immediately
when the lid is opened. Avoid
touching hot surfaces.
3. Extreme caution must be used
when moving a product
containing hot oil, other hot
liquids or hot foods of any types.
NOTE: Do not overfill the basket with food , too
many items lower the oil temperature causing food
to absorb oil and not cook properly.
Tip: Ensure the oil has reached the selected
temperature before lowering foods into the oil. Food
cooked in oil that has not reached the correct
temperature will absorb more oil and become
soggy.
Tip: Food should be placed in the basket in uniform
size to create even cooking.Wet foods should be
patted dry to decrease the amount of water
coming into contact with the oil.
