Important Fryer Guidelines

❖ Use deep fryer only on a clean, dry, level, stable, and heat-resistant surface, away from countertop edge.
❖ Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children. hot oil can cause serious and painful
burns.
❖ To avoid the risk of electrocution or severe disfiguring electrical burns, do not let children handle or put electrical cords
or plugs in their mouths.
❖ To avoid the risk of electrocution or electrical burns, do not let the cord or plug come in contact with water or other
liquid.
❖ Use only a good, reliable brand of vegetable shortening or cooking oil for deep frying. Deep frying foods in butter,
margarine, olive oil, or animal fat is not recommended because of lower smoking temperatures.
❖ CAUTION: OIl AND wATER DO NOT MIx. The combination can be dangerous. When the oil is heated, any water
droplets in the oil super-heat, becoming a volatile steam that can cause hot oil to spatter, boil over, or even erupt out of
the deep fryer. Hot oil can cause severe burns!
Accordingly, before pouring oil into a fryer be sure that the fryer is COMPlETEly dry. Before placing food in
deep fryer, always remove ice crystals and excess moisture from food by patting dry with toweling.
❖ Use caution when deep frying doughs, such as beignets, donuts, dumplings, hushpuppies, and fritters. These foods may
develop air bubbles during heating, which may burst and cause burns. Use the scoop provided or tongs, rather than a
fork, when turning food during frying and when removing food from oil.
❖ Use caution when deep frying flour tortillas. Flour tortillas contain air bubbles. During deep frying, oil can become trapped
within these bubbles. If not properly drained the bubbles can burst and cause burns. Therefore, after deep frying tortillas,
carefully raise them out of the cooking oil and allow oil to drain from the tortillas for approximately 30 seconds.
❖ Always remove plug from wall outlet and then from deep fryer when unit is not in use.
❖ Always allow fryer to cool completely before removing oil and before cleaning.

How To Use

Before using for the first time, wash scoop and interior of unit with warm, sudsy water and dry
thoroughly. Never immerse unit in water or other liquid, or wash in dishwasher.
1. Remove plastic cover. Unit must be cool before cover can be replaced for storage of oil.
2. Check the rubber pads on the bottom of the fryer before each use to be sure they are free of
oil or other debris. Wipe pads with warm, soapy water if necessary. Then dry thoroughly.
3. Place deep fryer on a clean, dry, level, stable, and heat-resistant surface in center of
countertop.
4. Fill unit with cooking oil or shortening up to the MAX oil level line, which is located on inside
of unit (Fig. A). Never use more than four, 8-ounce cups of cooking oil or 2 pounds of shorten-
ing. Do not allow the oil to go beneath the MIN level mark. Never use any cover while oil is
heating or while frying food.
5. Attach the cord to the unit by aligning the magnetic plug end of the cord assembly with the two
electrical pins located in the recessed area of the fryer base (Fig. B). When
properly aligned, the plug will magnetically attach itself to the appliance.
For proper connection, the magnetic plug end must be parallel with the
countertop (Fig. C).
Important: The magnetic cord was designed to detach easily from the fryer.
As a result, if it is bumped or touched during use, it could possibly detach
causing the unit to stop heating. Avoid contact with cord during operation.
If contact occurs, verify that the cord is still properly connected.
