Operating the Control Panel

in Program Mode
Using the Program Function
Your Deep Fryer comes equipped with four pre-programmed settings for French
Fries, Chicken, Fish, & Shrimp. These settings are based upon frying no more
than the recommended volume of food, i.e. 3.0 lbs, and not to exceed the MAX
line on the frying basket.
1 Press the PROGRAM button to switch among the pre-set functions
2 The LCD will display the preset temperature value according to the
chosen figure.
3 Press ON/OFF to start preheating the oil. The HEATING indicator will blink on
the control panel display and the yellow heating light will illiminate during
the preheating cycle.
4 Your oil is preheated when the READY indicator displays and 5 beeps sound.
5 Lower your basket with food into the Fryer and press the on/off button
to start the Timer. The display will change to a countdown timer and the
control panel display will show a blinking COOKING. The yellow heating light
will cycle on and off during cooking to maintain the set temperature.

thermostat will turn off and display the previously selected temperature.
7 Place the basket into the basket clip which will allow the excess oil to drain
from the food for a minute or two. Do not leave the cooked food in the basket
in the draining position for more than five minutes or it may lose its crispness
and become soft.
