soapy water, wipe the exterior and interior of the body with a damp cloth. Dry all parts of the fryer thoroughly and replace
the lid, oil tank and basket. Always keep the bottom of the cooking pot and the heating plate clean so that they don't
accumulate foreign substances. Otherwise, it will lower the heating efficiency and shorten the life of the fryer.
HOW TO USE
Open the lid. Remove frying basket and set aside. Using only a good quality peanut oil, vegetable oil, pure corn oil,
sunflower oil for deep-frying, fill the pot to point between the MIN marking and MAX marking. Close the lid lightly. Plug
the power cord in to a 230 volt outlet. The green ready light will turn on. Adjust the temperature control knob to the
desired temperature. The red heating light will be turn on; cooking guide is given at the end of this instruction booklet.
Preheating before frying, we should preheating oil for 10 minutes. Place food as dry as possible into the basket. Do not
overfill the basket (1/4 to 1/2 is the best), too many food will cause the temperature of the oil to decrease below the
optimal frying temperature and result in foods that are not as light or crispy as they can be. Open the lid, use basket
handle to place the basket with dry food inside into the oil pot gently. Close the lid lightly, fry the food for a suitable time.
When food reaches desired brownness, open the lid.
