USAGE NOTES
•It is recommended that you clean the lid, housing, oil pot, and frying basket before use.
•Always attach plug into the appliance first, then plug AC cord into the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn
appliance o and remove AC cord from the wall outlet.
•It is recommended that you use liquid frying oil.
•Be careful because oils and fats may burn if overheated.
•Always remove the food remaining in the oil (e.g. pieces of French fries).
•Change the oil after several uses.
•Only use high quality frying oil or frying grease. Fats and oils must be able to withstand high
temperatures.
•Do not use margarine, olive oil or butter because they are not fit for frying.
•If using fat to fry, divide it up into small pieces. Turn the thermostat to a low temperature and slowly
add the fat pieces. Once the fat has melted and the correct oil level is reached, set the desired
temperature on the thermostat.
•Never place fat in the deep frying basket.
•If frying food containing starch (potatoes, cereals), the temperature during frying should not exceed
340°F. Keep frying as short as possible and fry until food is golden yellow.
•Always confirm the temperature that food should be fried. A rule of thumb is that pre-fried foods
require a higher temperature than raw foods.
•When frying dough-like foods, scrape o the excess dough and carefully place the pieces into the oil.
•Rub dry foods with a cloth before frying.
•If food is too moist (e.g. frozen food, etc.) large amounts of foam may form, which may cause the oil
to overflow.
OVERHEATING PROTECTION
•If you accidentally switch on the fryer without oil or fat, overheating protection will activate. Do the
following to turn the device back on:
- Unplug the deep fryer.
- After the device has cooled down completely, press the RESTART button on the rear of the
control panel.
CLEANING
•Clean the oil pot, lid, and housing with a damp cloth and mild household detergent (if necessary). Do
not immerse the oil pot, lid, or housing in water.
•Clean the frying basket with water and a mild detergent.
•Do not clean with a wire brush or other abrasive objects.
