When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:

1Read all instructions carefully.

2Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

3To protect against risk of electric shock, do not immerse the control panel

or plug in water or any other liquid.

4Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

5Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning the appliance.

6Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or is dropped or damaged in any manner. Return the appliance to an authorized service facility for exami- nation, repair, or electrical or mechanical adjustment.

7The use of accessory attachments not recommended or sold by the appliance manufacturer may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.

8Do not use outdoors.

9Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces, including the stove.

10Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.

11Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.

12Be sure the handle is properly assembled to the basket and locked in place. See detailed assembly instructions.

13Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, turn control to “OFF”, then remove plug from wall outlet.

14Do not use this appliance for other than intended use.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (One blade is wider than the other.). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

SHORT POWER CORD

1A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce risks of injuring yourself from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

2Do not use with an extension cord.

Warning: Serious hot-oil burns may result if deep fryer is pulled off a countertop. Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of the counter where it may be grabbed by children or become entangled by the user. This is why the Deep Fryer is equipped with a magnetic-release detachable power cord.
