OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Using Solid Fat
Warning: Do not put solid shortening in the oil container or the frying basket.
•If using solid vegetable shortening, melt it first in a separate pan and then very carefully pour the melted fat into the oil container.
•Previously used solid vegetable shortening which has curdled and hardened in the oil tank should be removed from the oil container and melted in a separate pan before reusing.
Warning: If you try to melt the solidified fat in the oil container, there is a risk of warm melted fat suddenly sputtering from below through the still solid top layer of fat. Therefore use only the following procedure:
•Make sure the fat is at room temperature. If the fat is very cold, there is a greater risk of splashing.
•Using a fork, carefully make some holes in the fat. Make sure the lid is securely closed while fat is melting. Set temperature dial to 320º F (160º C).
Installing the “Control Panel With the Heating Element” Into Place
•Lift up the control panel with heating element. (Fig. 3)
•Insert the control panel into the mounting boss on the deep fryer body. (Fig. 4)
Note: The Automatic Safety Interlock Switch ensures that the unit will not operate unless the control panel has been inserted into the mounting boss of the deep fryer body correctly. This is not a defect. This product is fitted with a safety switch to prevent the unit from turning on accidentally.

Using the Deep Fryer
Warning: Never plug in the Deep Fryer before filling with oil to specified level. Always make sure control panel is securely in place in the body and the heating element is inside the oil in the container before plugging in. Important: Ensure the control panel is fitted correctly to the main unit otherwise the unit will not function. This is not a defect. This product is fitted with a safety interlock switch to prevent the unit from turning on accidentally.
Frying Baskets
•You have a choice of three different sizes of baskets for your frying needs.
•The small and medium baskets can be used for appropriate portions of food.
•The large divided basket can be used to fry two different foods that require the same frying temperature at the same time or by removing the divider, you can fry larger quantities. To remove the divider make sure the basket is cool.
•Place the divider in the guide rails of the large basket. (Fig. 5)
