OIL FILTRATION
We recommend filtering the oil after each use to avoid any transfer of
flavors and burnt crumbs. Even when filtered after each use, oil should
be completely replaced on a regular basis.
•Wait for the oil to be cool enough, approximately 3 to 5 hours after
the last cooking.
•Make sure that the oil container is empty before draining the fryer.
•Once the oil has cooled down, turn the oil filtration knob to the
“FILTER OIL” position, the oil will start filtering.
•When the filtration is finished, store your oil container in or out of the
appliance. If stored in the appliance, simply turn the oil control knob
to the “LOCK” position. Make sure the appliance always stays flat
and it is stored in a cool, dry place at a temperature no higher than
room temperature.
•If the oil container is stored out of the appliance, turn the oil control
knob to the “UNLOCK” position and remove the container. Transport
with care and place in a cool, dry place at a temperature no higher
than room temperature.
•Always carry the unit and oil container flat and with both hands.
•To re-use the oil, unscrew the oil box cap, and empty the oil in the
fryer bowl.
•Screw the oil box cap back on and insert the empty container back
in the fryer, with its lid and cap. Place the oil filtration knob on the
“LOCK” position.
•Note: The “Change oil” indicator will illuminate when it is time to use
new oil (after about 10 uses). If the indicator is on, replace the
filtered oil with new oil and press the “RESET” button for 3 seconds to
indicate that new oil is being used.
Emptying the oil container:
Filtered oil can be stored in a suitable container (see Storing oil) or re-
used for frying a new batch of food (see Cooking with oil).
•Unscrew the cap on top of the oil container.

WWW.KALORIK.COM

KPRO FT 42777 –200605
•Slowly pour the oil container content into a suitable container or the
oil reservoir, if required.
NOTE:
‒Ensure the oil filtration control knob is on UNLOCK position
before pouring oil into the oil reservoir.
‒Tilt the oil container upwards (vertical position) gradually to
avoid leaks from the side of the container.
‒Oil can be stored in the oil reservoir, inside the deep fryer or in
another cool dry place (see Storing oil).
•Screw the cap back on top of the oil container.
•Insert the oil container back into the appliance and turn the oil
filtration control knob to the LOCK position to secure the oil container
in place.
CHOOSING THE RIGHT COOKING OIL
As a general rule, choose cooking oils with a high smoke point and
avoid flavored oils.
Suitable: Pure corn oil, blended vegetable oil, soybean oil, sunflower
oil, grape seed oil, peanut oil
Not suitable: Olive oil, walnut oil, lard
IMPORTANT: DO NOT use solid grease or shortening with this fryer, as it is
not compatible with the filtration system. Please use regular vegetable
oil or oil designed for deep fryer, which will not solidify when cold.
COOKING WITH OIL
Cooking oil can enhance the food’s flavor – or spoil its taste. As with
any other food component, freshness and correct handling of the oil is
the key to successful deep-frying results.
The quality of the oil decreases with use at high temperatures. Food
particles, water and other liquids will further lower its quality, therefore:
•Do not mix different cooking oils.
•Only use fresh and clean cooking oils.

WWW.KALORIK.COM
15
KPRO FT 42777 –200605
-Regularly remove burnt food particles while frying. Always use
utensils that are safe to immerse into hot oils without damaging
the utensil or the appliance, and always wear oven mitts when
removing any burnt food particles.
-After use and before storage, filter oil with the integrated
filtration system (see Oil Filtration)
-Do not reuse oil that has been used to fry fish or other strongly
flavored food.
-Some meats, such as chicken wings, will release large amounts
of liquids when frying, thus watering down the oil. Do not reuse
this oil.
Do not use the cooking oil anymore if you notice the following:
Before use: oil smells rancid or its color has visibly darkened.
During use: oil is foaming strongly, or smoke appears on the oil’s
surface at normal operating temperature.
STORING OIL
•Do not store used cooking oil in the refrigerator. Choose a cool
place that is not subject to sunlight. Generally, oil may be stored for
a period of 3 months once the bottle is opened. Please observe the
oil manufacturer’s storage directions as well.
HINTS AND TIPS
•Smaller quantities of food normally require a slightly shorter cooking
time than larger quantities of food.
•To reduce cooking time, defrost food prior to cooking. It is
recommended that some foods should not be thawed/defrosted
prior to cooking, such as frozen fish, and frozen French fries.
•It is recommended to use a meat thermometer to check the
cooking progress.
•In the event of food flare-ups, do not remove the lid, do not remove
the basket; unplug the appliance.
•When the food you are cooking requires shaking, it is
recommended to use a timer set for half of the suggested cooking
time. This way a bell will ring and remind you to shake the basket.

KPRO FT 42777 –200605
•It is recommended to only use nylon, heat-proof plastic, or wooden
cooking utensils. Metal utensils may become hot and damage the
non-stick surface. Always remove utensils from the appliance. Do
not leave them in the appliance during use.
•When frying fresh cut potatoes and high moisture content food,
lower the basket slowly into the oil. If the oil boils or foams too
rapidly, raise the basket for a few seconds and lower again. Do this
until the basket can be lowered without excess foaming.
•Do not place the lid on the appliance when frying fresh cut
potatoes or other high moisture content foods.
•Spread a little oil on the inside of the view window to prevent
condensation.
