Other Consumer Safety Information
This product is intended for household use only.
This product is only intended for the preparation, cooking, and
serving of foods. This product is not intended for use with any
nonfood materials or products.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one
wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only
one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of
the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still
does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
WARNING! Burn Hazards.
• Serious hot-oil burns may result from a deep-fat fryer being pulled
off a countertop. Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of the
counter where it may be grabbed by children or become entangled
with the user. Do not use with an extension cord.
• Hot liquid will splash if you miss the drain bracket and accidentally
drop the frying basket into the hot liquid. Do not lean over the
deep fryer when the lid is off.

Frying
1 2 3 4
Place assembled fryer on a stable,
level, heat-resistant surface out of
reach of children. Lift lid to open.
Remove basket from fryer. Fill fryer with at least 10 but no
more than 12 cups of oil to top
indicator mark on removable
oil pot.
NOTICE: Never operate unit
without oil in pot or unit will
exceed temperature limit and will
require resetting. (See “How to
Reset” on page 12.)
Make sure fryer is turned to MIN.
Attach magnetic end of cord
assembly to fryer socket. Magnetic
end of cord will only go in one
way. Be careful not to disturb
magnetic connection when
plugging cord into electrical outlet.
NOTE: The low magnetic force
allows the cord to “break away”
which prevents unit from
accidentally being pulled off
a countertop.
BEFORE FIRST USE: Thoroughly clean and dry fryer. See “Cleaning Your Fryer” section.
NOTE: Never operate unit without oil in tank or unit will exceed temperature limit and will require resetting. See “How to Reset” section for details.

• Never move fryer when it is in operation or when
fryer contains hot oil.
• Never leave fryer unattended while in use.
• Remove as much moisture from food as
possible. Do not add water or ice to oil.
• Escaping steam may cause burns to hands or
fingers. Open lid carefully.
• Failure to follow these instructions may result in
serious burns since hot oil may spill from fryer.
