•For best results we recommend vegetable oil.

•If you use solid vegetable shortening (not recommended): Cut it into small pieces, melt it in a separate pan then pour the melted shortening into the fryer bowl.

IMPORTANT

Never melt the shortening on the heating element or in the frying basket. However, we do not recommend the use of solid vegetable fat. If you melt the shortening on the heating element or in the frying basket, the safety cut-out would be activated. Press the “reset” button, which is located at the back of the fryer.

FRYING PROCESS

•Ensure that the oil box control button is set to the Fry position. Fig. 2.

IMPORTANT

Do not plug in the fryer without oil.

•After the bowl has been filled with oil, plug in the fryer without the frying basket. Set the On/Off switch button to position 1 and the temperature indicator light will switch on. Turn the adjustable thermostat to the desired temperature (see cooking tables).

•The fryer will now start to heat the oil.

•Note : the temperature indicator light will switch off when the desired temperature is reached.

IMPORTANT

No matter what the recipe, food must be dried thoroughly before frying. This will prevent the oil from overflowing and extend the life of the oil.

During cooking, it is normal for the temperature light to go on and off.

Do not touch the fryer when it is in use as it will be extremely hot and can cause severe burns.

Steam coming from the filter is also extremely hot.
