WARNING: DO NOT come in contact with the magnetic connection on the
power cord while it is plugged into the electrical wall outlet. Injury
can occur.
WARNING:Use only the power cord provided with the deep fryer. Use of any
other magnetic cord could cause fire, electric shock or injury.
:WARNING DO NOT attempt to defeat the magnetic cord connection by
attempting to permanently attach the power cord to the deep fryer.
WARNING: The break-away safety cord is intended to prevent the tipping of
the appliance and hazardous spillage of hot oil. It is NOT intended
to disconnect the fryer during normal use.
NOTE: Your deep fryer has been specifically designed with your safety in mind
and is equipped with a unique, detachable power supply cord. This power
supply cord is designed to “break-away” from the fryer in the event that
the power cord or fryer is inadvertently pulled or tugged.
Plug the break-away safety cord into the back of the deep fryer. Make sure the top of the plug reads
“THIS SIDE UP”. You willfeel a magnetic pull if installed correctly. (Fig. 1)

Frying Tips Tips For Using Solid Fat
In general, use lower settings for delicate foods (vegetables, fish) and higher settings for frozen foods,
french ries and chicken.
Temperature Settings
1. Always use the frying basket to fry food.
2. Always close the lid during frying. Replace the lid carefully.
3. When the oil is pre-heated, the ready indicator light will come on indicating that the desired
temperature has been reached.
4. Slowly lower the frying basket into the hot oil. Lowering the frying basket too quickly can result in the oil
overflowing and splashing.
5. It is normal for steam to escape through the sides of the lid while frying.
6. Avoid standing too close to the deep fryer while it is working.
7. Do not mix new and old oil together.
8. Replace oil regularly. In general, oil will be tainted fast when frying food containing a lot of protein, such as
poultry, meat and fish. When oil is used mainly to fry potatoes and is filtered after each use, it can be used up
to 8 to 10 times, but do not use the same oil for more than 6 months.
9. Always replace all oil as soon as it starts foaming when heated, when colour becomes dark or when it
has a rancid smell or taste or becomes syrupy.
10.

12.
Make sure that the food to be fried is dry. Remove loose ice from frozen food before frying.
To cook evenly, pieces should be the same size and thickness. Thicker pieces will take longer to cook.

Use only the following procedure when melting solid fat in your deep fryer:
1. Make sure the fat is at room temperature. If the fat is cold, then there is a greater risk of splashing.
2. Using a fork, carefully make some holes in the fat.
3. Make sure the lid is always securely closed while the fat is melting.
4. Set the temperature control knob to
.
WARNING: Do not put solid shortening in the oil reservoir or the frying basket.
1. If using solid vegetable shortening, melt it first in a separate container and
then very carefully pour the melted fat into the oil reservoir.
2. Previously used solid vegetable shortening which has curdled and hardened
in the oil reservoir should be removed from the oil reservoir and melted in a
separate pan before reusing.
WARNING: If you try to melt the solidified fat in the oil reservoir, there is a risk of
hot melted fat suddenly sputtering from below through the solid top layer of fat.
Using the Deep Fryer
served or placed in a dish.
WARNING: Always let the deep fryer cool completely (approximately 2 hours)
before cleaning or storing. Never carry or move the appliance with hot oil inside.
CAUTION: The metal surfaces of the deep fryer become hot during use. Do not
touch the sides of the appliance while it is use.

Filtering and Changing the Oil
To Filter the Oil:
1. Make sure the oil has cooled (approximately
2 hours) and then empty the oil from the oil
reservoir into another container or bottle. (Fig. 6)
2. Wash and dry the oil reservoir and frying basket.
3. Refill the oil reservoir with the oil by pouring the
oil through a wire strainer or paper filter. (Fig. 7)
To ensure many years of service from your appliance, clean your deep fryer after every use.
1. Never immerse the control panel, cord or plug in water or any other liquid.
2
. Do not place the control panel, cord or plug in the dishwasher.
3
. Clean the control panel with a damp cloth only.

CAUTION: Do not clean the filter in the dishwasher.
Your deep fryer is equipped with a reset feature. If for some reason the deep fryer stops heating,
check to see if the reset switch has tripped.
To reset the deep fryer:
1. Unplug the appliance from the electrical
wall outlet.
2. Let the appliance and the oil in the oil
reservoir cool completely.
3. After the appliance has cooled completely,
lift the control panel and using the tip
of a ball point pen or pencil, push the
thermostat reset button that is located on
the inside of the control panel.(Fig. 8)
4. Re-assemble the control panel to the
housing of the deep fryer and resume frying.
Cleaning Instructions
Note: The oil does not need to be changed after each use. In general, the oil will be
tainted rather quickly when frying food containing a lot of protein (such as poultry,
meat or fish). When oil is mainly used to fry potatoes and is filtered after each use,
it can be used 8 to 10 times. However, do not use the same oil for longer than 6
months.
ATTENTION: Make sure the deep fryer is unplugged from the electrical socket and
the oilhas cooled (approximately 2 hours) before changing the oil, or cleaning and
storing the deepfryer.
WARNING: Always remove the plug from the electrical wall outlet before cleaning.
Allow the deep fryer and the oil to cool completely (approximately 2 hours) before
cleaning.
