Place the removable pot back in
the fryer base making sure the
carrying handles are on the left
and right sides of the fryer and
the rim opening is in the front of
the unit (Fig. D). Close the fryer
cover. Remove the filter cover
from the fryer cover by pushing
the release latch away from the
window (see Fig. A on page 1)
and lifting it off. Unwrap the mesh
charcoal filter and insert it in the filter compartment. Replace the
filter cover and snap into place by pushing the release latch down
and towards the window. Your deep fryer is now ready to use.
Important Fryer Guidelines
✧
Use deep fryer only on a clean, dry, level, stable, and heat-
resistant surface, away from any edges.
✧
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 cord or plug come in contact with water or other liquid.
✧
Never use the deep fryer without the removable pot.
✧
Never use the deep fryer without oil or with insufficient oil.
Also never exceed the maximum fill level. The minimum
(MIN) and maximum (MAX) fill levels are embossed inside
the removable pot (Fig. E).
✧
Use only a good, reliable standard brand of vegetable
shortening or cooking oil for deep frying. Deep frying foods
in butter, margarine, olive oil, or animal fat is not
recommended because of lower smoking temperatures.
✧
Before deep frying, remove excess moisture from food by
blotting with toweling—moist foods cause excess foaming
and spattering. Do not add wet food to cooking oil. Even small
amounts of water may cause the oil to spatter.
✧
Always make sure the cover and all other parts of the deep
fryer are thoroughly dry before frying.
✧
Use caution when deep frying flour tortillas. Flour tortillas
contain air bubbles. During deep frying, oil can become
trapped within these bubbles. If not properly drained the
bubbles can burst and cause burns. Therefore, after deep frying
tortillas, carefully raise them out of the cooking oil and allow
oil to drain from the tortillas for approximately 30 seconds.
✧
Always unplug cord from wall outlet and then from deep fryer
when unit is not in use.
✧
Always allow fryer to cool completely with cover closed
before removing oil and cleaning.
How To Use
To Fill
1. Open the deep fryer cover.
2. Remove the frying basket from the removable pot and set
the basket aside.
3. Fill the removable pot with
cooking oil or shortening
up to the maximum oil
level line (MAX) which is
located on the inside of the
removable pot (Fig. E).
Use eight, 8-ounce cups of
cooking oil or four pounds
of shortening. The amount
of oil in the removable pot must always be between the
MIN and MAX level markings inside the removable pot.
Never exceed the MAX level mark.
To Preheat
1. Close the fryer cover.
2. Attach the cord to the
unit by aligning the
magnetic plug end of
the cord assembly with
the two electrical pins
located in the recessed
area of the fryer base
(Fig. F). When properly
aligned, the plug will
magnetically attach
itself to the appliance.
For proper connection, the magnetic plug end must be
parallel with the countertop (Fig. G).
Important: The magnetic cord was designed to detach
easily from the fryer. As a result, if it is bumped or
touched during use it could possibly detach causing the
unit to stop heating. Avoid contact with cord during
operation. If contact occurs, verify that the cord is still
properly connected.
3. Plug cord into a 120 volt wall outlet. Slide the temperature
control to the desired temperature (see page 4 for proper
cooking temperatures). The recommended setting for most
frying is 375˚.
4. When the selected temperature is reached, the indicator light
will go out. Preheat time is approximately 20 minutes.
5. While oil is preheating, prepare food for cooking.
