Safe Frying Information
To ensure a safe and enjoyable frying
experience, please read carefully before
using your deep fryer and observe all
instructions. Here is a list of important
safeguards relating to water content in
the oil and how to avoid oil splattering,
overlow and/or popping resulting from
excess water trapped in the oil:
1. Read and follow all important
safeguards and operating
instructions before using your deep
fryer.
2. Ensure the lid, heater assembly and
oil tank are completely dry after
washing and before use.
3. Dry wet foods with paper towels
and remove loose ice from frozen
foods before frying.
4. Always use the fryer on a stable
counter top and keep it stationary
during frying, cooling and the
draining process.
5. Do not move the fryer around
or agitate the hot oil inside
immediately after frying.
6. Adding or removing foods from the
oil should be handled with care to
avoid oil splattering.
7. When the lid is removed, do not let
condensation drip back into the
oil tank.
8. Oil picks up water with use, so
drain the oil regularly, such as after
every 3 uses.
9. Drain the oil immediately after
frying foods with a lot of water
content, such as fresh or frozen
chicken or potatoes, and if lots of
food residues are left in the bottom
of the oil.
10. Frying foods with the lid o under
the hood minimizes water content
trapped in oil.
11. Replace oil if one of the following
conditions occurs:
• Excessive smoking at normal
temperature
• Strong oil discoloration
• A rancid smell
• Excessive foaming around the
frying foods
12. The iltered oil should be stored in
a cool dark place but never in a
refrigerator.
