WARNING! Never operate unit without oil in pot or unit will exceed temperature limit and will require resetting.

6.Make sure fryer is turned to OFF ( O ). Attach magnetic

end of cord assembly to fryer socket.

Magnetic end of cord will only go

in one way. Be

careful not to disturb magnetic

connection when plugging cord into electrical outlet.

NOTE: Magnetic force is relatively low to ensure that cord will break away in the event of being inadver- tently pulled; thereby, preventing deep fryer from being pulled off a countertop.

7.Close lid. Set temperature control to desired setting. Set timer to “Stay On” (counterclockwise) or to a specified time (clockwise). For specified times less than 5 minutes, turn timer clock- wise past 5 minute mark then turn back to desired time less than 5 min- utes. Preheat fryer until Ready to Cook Light comes on (10 to 15 minutes). For more information on temperature selection, check food package or Frying Chart.

Ready to Cook Light will come on when oil has reached preset temperature.

8.To fry unbattered food, place food in basket and proceed with step 9.

To fry battered foods, proceed with steps 9 and 10 to lower basket into oil, then carefully drop food directly into oil.

NOTE: Do not exceed maximum amount of food to be fried in one batch. See Frying Chart for more information.
