CAUTIO N: To prevent personal injury or steam burns, use protective oven mitt when opening. Hot steam escapes from cover causing burns.
Always remove moisture from underside of cover with paper towel after each time cover is removed. This will help prevent oil from spattering when cover is replaced. Use only metal cook tools in fryer. Do not use plastic or rubber cook tools as they will be damaged from hot oil. It is best to use fresh oil each time the fryer is used to prevent transfer of flavor. Do not reuse more than two times as oil deteriorates with use.
When finished frying, unplug cord from wall outlet, secure cover onto fryer and allow covered fryer to cool completely before removing oil and cleaning.
Replace charcoal filter after every 10 to 12 uses to help reduce odor when frying and also to prevent oil from overflowing due to using a dirty filter. See Warranty section is this book for ordering replacement charcoal filters. Do not use fryer without charcoal filter .
TO USE DEEP FRYER
1. Place fryer on a stable, dry and level heat
2. With basket removed, fill fryer base with vegetable oil to the MAX fill line, about 8 cups . See Diagram 1. Do not fill fryer with oil beyond the MAX fill line to prevent boil
3. Attach handle to basket by sliding top plastic tab back while inserting metal end of handle through clip on inside of basket . See Diagram 2. Release tab to lock handle on basket . See Diagram 3. Lower empty basket into oil and remove handle by sliding tab back while lifting handle up and out of basket clip. See Diagram 4.
Do not leave handle on basket during frying as this will prevent cover from being secured onto fryer.
4. Turn cover to secure in place on fryer . To reduce oil spills, especially if fryer is tipped over, make sure cover has been turned clockwise until it is completely secured into the handle slots. (Note the arrows on the cover for correct turning). The cover temporarily reduces oil from spilling if fryer is tipped over, however, care should still be used when moving fryer . See diagram 5. “Cover Front” must be to the front of fryer for proper securement of cover onto fryer. Steam vents must be to the back.
5. Plug cord into a 120 volt AC electrical outlet ONLY. Temperature light in base will glow when oil is heating. Preheat cover fryer until temperature light goes out, about 10 to 12 minutes. Oil temperature will be 375ºF. Temperature light will cycle on and off during frying indicating temperature is being maintained.
WARNING: HOT OIL! To prevent serious personal injury or property damage from spills, keep cover secure on fryer whenever oil is hot, and never attempt to lift fryer by cover handle. Turn cover in direction of arrows to secure .
