BEFORE USE AND SAVE FOR FUTURE REFERENCE

•Carefully read all instructions before operating the deep fryer for the first time and save for future reference.

•Remove and safely discard any packaging material and promotional labels before using the deep fryer for the first time.

•To eliminate a choking hazard for young children, remove and safely discard the protective cover fitted to the power plug of this appliance.

•Do not place the deep fryer near the edge of a bench or table during operation. Ensure the surface is level, clean and free of water and other substances.

•Do not use the deep fryer on a sink drain board.

•Do not place the deep fryer on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or where it could touch a heated oven.

•Do not place unit under shelving or flammable materials when in use.

•Always follow the maximum and minimum quantities of oil stated in the instructions and recipes.

•Position the deep fryer at a minimum distance of 20cm away from walls, curtains, cloths and other heat sensitive materials

•Always operate the deep fryer on a stable and heat resistant surface. Do not use on a cloth-covered surface, near curtains or other flammable materials.

•Always ensure the deep fryer is properly assembled before use. Follow the instructions provided in this book.

•The deep fryer is not intended to be operated by means of an external timer or separate remote control system.

•Avoid the use of extension cords. Serious hot oil burns may result from a deep fryer being pulled off a table or bench top. Do not allow the power cord to hang off the edge of a bench top where it may be grabbed by children, or become entangled by the user. Never leave the deep fryer unattended while in use.

•Ensure the deep fryer is completely dry and free of water before adding any oil. When deep frying, ensure water does not come in contact with hot oil as this will cause the oil to bubble and splatter.

•Always add the required amount of oil to the deep fryer before switching the power on at the power outlet.

•Water and oil do not mix – never add any water or other liquid to hot oil. Even small amounts of water will cause the oil to splatter.

•Solid oil products, such as butter, margarine or animal fats of any kind should not be used in the deep fryer as they increase the chance of fire hazard.

•The lid and the outer surface will be hot when the appliance is operating and for some time after use.

•The temperature of accessible surfaces will be high when the appliance is operating and for some time after use.

•Steam vents are very hot during deep frying. Do not place anything on top of the lid.
