Frying Tips :
1. Always use fresh oil.
2. Food to be fried should always be as dry as possible.
Frying foods with high moisture content causes oil to
foam and overflow.
3. The maximum amount of food to be fried at one time is
half the basket capacity.
4. When oil level approaches the minimum level line
marked on the side of the tank, add oil until the
maximum level line is reached. If oil is added while
fryer is hot, add cold oil and be careful so oil is not
splashed.
5. Too little oil in the tank may result in overheating.
6. Never leave the fryer with no oil in the tank. Should
this happen, the safety thermostat will turn off the
appliance.
7. Fry baskets should be used to cook food.
