When finished frying, unplug cord from wall outlet, secure cover onto fryer and allow covered fryer to cool
completely before removing oil and cleaning.
•
Replace charcoal filter after every 10 to 12 uses to help reduce odor when frying and also to prevent oil from
overflowing due to using a dirty filter. See Warranty section in this book for ordering replacement charcoal
filters. Do not use fryer without charcoal filter.
TO USE DEEP FRYER
1. Place fryer on a stable, dry and level heat-resistant surface, away from any edge. Open
cover by turning cover release knob clockwise and then lifting cover handle. Lift basket
handle up until handle locks in horizontal position. See Diagram 1. Lift basket out of
fryer.
2. With basket removed, fill fryer base with vegetable oil to the MAX fill line, about 11
cups. See Diagram 2. Do not fill fryer with oil beyond the MAX oil level line to prevent
boil-over when food is added. Do not operate fryer without oil as damage to fryer will
occur.
3. Lower empty basket into oil and slide handle release button back to lower handle.
Basket
handle must be lowered before closing cover.
See Diagram 3. Close cover to secure.
To reduce oil spills, especially if fryer is tipped over, make sure cover is completely
secured onto fryer. The cover temporarily reduces oil from spilling if fryer is tipped over;
however, care should still be used when moving fryer.
4. With temperature lever at “0” setting, plug cord into a 120 volt AC electrical outlet
ONLY. Power light will glow and remain on as long as fryer is plugged in.
5. Set temperature lever to desired setting. See guide on fryer or in this book for
recommended temperature to use for food being prepared.
WARNING: HOT OIL!
To prevent serious personal injury or property damage from
spills, keep cover secure on fryer whenever oil is hot.
6. Preheat covered fryer until temperature light goes out, about 10 to 12 minutes.
Temperature light will cycle on and off during frying indicating temperature is being
maintained.
7. Open cover. Lift basket handle up to locked position. Lift basket and place in drain position by securing drain
clip over edge of metal liner. See Diagram 4. Place food evenly into basket. Do not fill basket more that
⅔
full
with food. Refer to cooking guide in this book for recommended amounts of food to cook at one time.
8. SLOWLY lower basket into oil. Slide handle release button back to lower basket handle. Close cover to secure.
Basket handle must be lowered before closing cover
.
CAUTION:
To prevent personal injury or steam burns, use protective oven mitt when opening. Hot steam escapes
from cover causing burns.
9. Fry food to desired doneness. Refer to guide on fryer or in this book for recommended times. Foods are usually
done when they float to the surface and are nicely browned.
