SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
THIS PRODUCT IS FOR HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
Important Cord and Plug Information
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. DO NOT
USE WITH AN EXTENSION CORD. Do not allow the cord to run underneath or around the unit. The magnetic cord may not detach
easily if the cord is positioned in this fashion. Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only.
Before First Use
Become familiar with the various parts of the deep fryer (Fig. A) and read the instructions carefully. Open the deep fryer cover by lifting
either of the cover handles (Fig. A). Remove the fry basket, magnetic cord assembly, and any packaging material from the deep fryer.
Wipe the fry basket, cover, and the interior of the fryer body with a damp cloth. Never immerse the fryer in water or other liquid, or
wash in a dishwasher. Always make sure all parts are completely dry before using the fryer.
Basket Handle Assembly/Storage
Your fryer will be shipped with the basket handle in the storage position (Fig. B). To use the basket, simply rotate the handle out of
the basket. Then, gently squeeze the handle bars together (Fig. C), keeping the pegs in the peg pockets on the sides of the wire bracket.
Rotate the handle towards the basket rim until the handle bars fit behind the two wire lock tabs (Fig. D). Release the handle. It is now
in the locked position.
Important Fryer Guidelines
♦ Use deep fryer only on a clean, dry, level, stable, and heat-resistant
surface, away from countertop edge.
♦ CAUTION! Hot oil can cause serious and painful burns. Close supervi-
sion is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
♦ 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.
♦ Use vegetable shortening or vegetable oil for deep frying, such as
canola, corn, sunflower, peanut, or soybean. Deep frying foods in
butter, margarine, olive oil, or animal fat is not recommended because
they have lower smoking temperatures.
♦ CAUTION! Oil and water do not mix. The combination can
be dangerous. When the oil is heated, any water droplets in the
oil superheat, becoming a volatile steam that can cause hot oil
to spatter, boil over, or even erupt out of the deep fryer. Hot oil
can cause severe burns!
Accordingly, before pouring oil
into a fryer be sure that the fryer
and all parts are completely
dry. Before placing food in
deep fryer, always remove ice
crystals and excess moisture
from food by patting dry with
paper towels.
