SPECIAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord (or longer detachable cord) is not recommended for use with deep fryers.

Never plug in the control panel before it is installed in the body of the fryer with the heating element submersed in the oil.

Do not immerse the control panel and heating element in water.

When opening the lid after frying, open only partially, wait a moment to allow the steam inside to escape before opening fully.

To avoid a circuit overload, do not operate another high wattage appliance on the same circuit.

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.
