Important Fryer Guidelines
• Use deep fryer only on a clean, dry, level, stable, and heat-resistant surface, away from
countertop edge.
• WARNING! Hot oil can cause serious and painful burns. Close supervision is necessary
when any appliance is used by or near children.
• WARNING! Oil and water do not mix. The combination can be dangerous. When the oil is
heated, any water droplets in the oil super-heat, 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 the removable pot, be sure that the pot 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 toweling.
• CAUTION! When frying doughs, such as beignets, donuts, dumplings, hushpuppies, and
fritters, use the scoop provided or tongs, rather than a fork, to turn food during frying and
to remove food from oil. These foods may develop air bubbles during heating, which may
burst and cause burns.
• CAUTION! Flour tortillas contain air bubbles. During frying, oil can become trapped within
these bubbles. If not properly drained, the bubbles can burst and cause burns. Therefore,
after frying tortillas, carefully raise them out of the vegetable oil and allow oil to drain from
the tortillas for approximately 30 seconds.
• CAUTION! Because raw fries contain a high percentage of moisture, extreme care must be
used when frying. Follow special frying instructions found in “To fry” steps 1, 4, 5, and 6
(page 7), the timetable (page 12), and the Raw French Fries recipe (page 10).
• WARNING! 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. 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. Failure
to fill fryer with oil to the minimum (MIN) fill level will
cause overheating and damage to the product.
Also never exceed the maximum (MAX) fill level. Using
more than the maximum amount may cause the oil to boil
over the top of the fryer. The MIN and MAX fill levels are
embossed inside the removable pot (Fig. H). The minimum
amount of oil for this fryer is six, 8-ounce cups and the
maximum amount is eight, 8-ounce cups.
• Use vegetable oil, such as canola, corn, sunflower, peanut,
or soybean, for frying. Frying foods in butter, margarine, olive oil, or animal fat is not rec-
ommended because they have lower smoking temperatures.
• Always remove plug from wall outlet and then the magnetic plug end from deep fryer when
unit is not in use.
• Always allow fryer to cool completely with cover closed before removing oil and before
cleaning.
How To Use
To fill with oil
1. Open the deep fryer cover. If the frying basket is in the fryer, remove it and set it aside.
2. Fill the removable pot with vegetable oil or shortening up to the MAX fill level located
on the inside of the removable pot (Fig. H).
Use eight, 8-ounce cups of oil or four pounds of shortening. The amount of oil in the
removable pot must always be between the MIN and MAX level markings. Never exceed
the MAX level mark.
To preheat
1. Close the fryer cover. Attach the power supply cord to the fryer by aligning the magnetic
plug end of the cord with the two electrical pins located in the recessed area (Fig. I) of the
fryer base.
When properly aligned, the magnetic plug end will attach itself magnetically to the appli-
ance. For proper connection, the magnetic plug end must be parallel with the countertop
(Fig. J).
IMPORTANT: The magnetic cord assembly was designed to detach easily from the
fryer. As a result, if bumped or touched during use, it could detach, causing the unit to
stop heating.
Avoid contact with the magnetic cord assembly during operation. If contact occurs, verify
it is still properly connected.
2. Plug the power supply cord into a 120VAC electrical wall outlet only. Turn the adjustable
temperature control to the desired temperature (page 12). The recommended temperature
for most frying is 375°.
Note: When using the fryer for the first time, it is normal for a slight odor or light smoking
to occur as manufacturing residue evaporates.
3. While oil is preheating, prepare food for frying. When the oil has reached the proper frying
temperature, the indicator light will go out. Preheat time is approximately 12 minutes.
WARNING! To prevent risk of severe personal injury or property damage, use caution when
frying with hot oil.
