The Power Light to the far left of the Light Bar will turn ON as well as the Pre-Heat Indicator Light to the far right of the Light Bar.

When the desired temperature is reached, the Pre-Heat Indicator Light on the far right side will turn OFF, the Power Light will remain ON as long as the unit is plugged in and is functioning.

Press Basket Lowering Button on the Folding Basket Handle and slowly allow the Handle to fold down into the recess area of the Control Box. This will lower the Basket of food into the hot oil and the frying will begin.

When desired cooking time has been reached, carefully raise the Handle back into the horizontal position until it locks into place. This will raise the frying Basket from the hot oil and will allow the excess oil to begin draining off the food.

When you wish to enjoy the food, press the Lid Release Button to open the Lid. Warning: By pressing the Lid Release Button the unit will release hot steam and de-pressurize the container. Extreme care should be used to ensure hands and face are clear of the appliance when hot steam is released.

Take out the Basket and place the food on dishes (or first place on paper towel to help absorb any excess oil that may remain on the outside of the food). Warning: The Basket is very hot. Only carry the Basket using the Basket Handle. Do not touch the hot metal.

If you wish to fry another batch of food, repeat the above steps. If you have completed frying, turn unit to OFF position by sliding the Adjustable Temperature Knob all the way to the left and unplug the unit from the outlet. Warning: Oil remains hot for a long time after use. Do not attempt to move or carry the fryer while it is hot. Do not attempt to pour off oil from cooking pot for storage until oil has cooled completely, usually 1 to 2 hours – longer if lid is in closed position.

FILTERING AND CHANGING THE OIL

Make sure the fryer is unplugged and the oil has cooled down before cleaning or storing your fryer.

The oil does not need to be changed after each use. On average, oil can be used for 8 to 12 uses. You will need to change it more often when frying fish or heavily battered foods.

We recommend filtering the oil if you see any food debris left in the oil

or on the bottom of the pot. You may do this by performing the following:

Remove the basket. Carefully pour the clear oil into another large pot or saucepan (minimum of 3 to 5 liters), leaving food debris in bottom of cooking pot. Discard this small amount of oil with food debris.
