CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning

CAUTION: Oil or fat must be cooled to room temperature before removal and/or disposal.

1.Disconnect the plug from the electrical outlet.

2.Remove the lid and basket. Remove the oil pot from the fryer and pour out the oil or fat.

3.The control/heating element should never be immersed in water or cleaned under running water. These parts must be cleaned with a moist cloth if necessary.

4.Clean the lid, bowl and basket with mild dishwashing detergent in hot water. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Do not use any abrasive cleaning agents or materials.

5.Reassemble the fryer by inserting the bowl and basket and attaching the lid.

6.Attach the handle by folding it into the basket.

7.Wrap and store the power cord inside the empty oil pot.

8.Lift the fryer with the aid of the side carrying handles.

9.Store the fryer with the lid closed in a cool, dark area. This will keep the inside of the fryer clean and dust-free.

Storing Oil

CAUTION: Oil or fat must be cooled to room temperature before removal and/or disposal.

1.If the fryer is not used regularly, it is recommended to store the oil or fat, after cooling, in a container and then placed in a refrigerator or other cool, dark area.

2.Filter the oil or fat through a fine sieve before storing in a container to remove food particles from the oil or fat. If the fryer is used mostly for chips and the oil or fat is sieved after each use, it may be re-used several times.

3.For best results, change the oil or fat regularly. Do not re-use oil for longer than six months. Observe the instructions on the food label.

4.Change the oil or fat if it begins to foam when heated, develops a strange taste or smell or becomes dark and/or has a syrup-like consistency.

Disposing Oil

CAUTION: Oil or fat must be cooled to room temperature before removal/or and disposal.

Used oil or liquid fat can be best disposed of by pouring it back into the original plastic bottle and sealing properly. Solid fat should be solidified in the fryer and removed with a spoon or spatula. Removed solid fat may be placed in a paper type of material such as newspaper. Bottles or newspapers containing used oil or fat should be disposed of in accordance to the applicable national or state regulations.
