To insert the divider, grasp the top (arched portion) and center the divider between
the guides on the inside of the deep fryer. Lower the divider into the deep fryer
until it touches the bottom surface. Be sure the sides of the divider are positioned
in the grooves of the guides.

or 4 pounds of shortening.

Never use any cover while oil is heating or while frying food.
6. Attach the cord to the unit by aligning the magnetic plug end of the cord assembly
with the two electrical pins located in the recessed area of the fryer base. When properly aligned, the plug will
magnetically attach itself to the appliance. For proper connection, the magnetic plug end must be parallel with the
countertop.
Important: The magnetic cord was designed to detach easily from the fryer. As a result, if bumped or touched during
use, the cord could detach, causing the unit to stop heating. Avoid contact with cord during operation. If contact
occurs, verify that the cord is still properly connected.
7. Plug cord into a 120VAC electrical wall outlet only. The unit is now on and will remain on until unplugged.
Note: While the fryer is preheating, you may hear an occasional pop or clicking sound. This is normal. You may also
notice this sound as the unit cools down.

This is normal.
8. Preheat oil for 20 minutes.
9. Using the scoop, gently place up to 8 cups of food into the oil, a little bit at a time. For homemade fries, fry only
4 cups at a time to avoid oil boiling over.
Note: If the plug accidentally detaches from the fryer during operation, reattach the cord following step 6. Use
extreme caution as unit will be hot.
10. Occasionally stir food gently while frying to prevent foods from sticking together. Use scoop provided or other heat-
resistant utensil.
11. When food reaches desired brownness, lift and drain with scoop. For recommended cooking times, refer to page 4.
Place food on paper towels. Season to taste. Repeat steps 9, 10, and 11 for additional servings.
12. Remove plug from wall outlet and then from deep fryer. Allow oil and fryer to cool completely in a safe place before
removing divider from deep fryer. Do not place the cover on the unit until it is completely cool. Placing the cover on
a hot unit may cause the cover to melt.
Care and Cleaning
1. After unit and oil have cooled completely, remove divider if it was used and discard or strain the oil. Refer to the
section “Handling Oil after Frying” on page 4.
2. Wash fryer, divider, and scoop with warm water and mild detergent. CAUTION! To avoid electrical shock, never
immerse the unit in water or other liquid or wash in the dishwaher.
If necessary, clean the interior and exterior of unit with a non-metal cleaning pad, such as Scotch-Brite* Multi-Purpose
Scrub Sponge. Firm pressure can be applied, when needed. Rinse thoroughly.
3. Dry fryer completely. Even small amounts of moisture present in the fryer during heating can produce large amounts
of steam which will expand and possibly cause oil to erupt out of the deep fryer.

5. Periodically check the screws on the two handles to be sure they are tight. Retighten, if necessary, with a standard
slotted screwdriver. NOTICE: Overtightening can result in stripping of screws or cracking of handles.
6. Store the cord in a clean, dry location away from metal objects. Always check the magnetic plug before use to assure
metal items have not become attached.
