OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Assembling Your Deep Fryer
CAUTION: Never turn on the fryer when
the oil pan is empty. Always ensure the
fryer is out of the reach of children.
Always use fryer on a flat, heat
resistant surface.
1. Place oil container inside the base of
the deep fryer.
2. Slide the control panel with the
heating element downward until it
connects with the control panel
terminal on the outside of the fryer.
The automatic safety switch ensures
that the unit will not operate unless
the control panel has been inserted
correctly into the electric interface on
the control panel terminal. ( Fig. 1)
Before Using Your Deep Fryer
Make sure the deep fryer is unplugged
from electrical outlet. Wash the frying
basket and oil container in hot, soapy
water. Wipe dry thoroughly. Wipe the
removable heating control panel and
heating elements with a damp, soapy
cloth. Wipe dry thoroughly.
Note: Any water left in oil container or on
frying basket can cause heated oil to
splatter or “pop” during cooking. Special
care should be taken to ensure that the
oil filter in the removable cover is
completely dry, otherwise the filter will
not function properly. If not dry, steam
may be trapped within the fryer during
use and cause serious burns when
opened.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Using Solid Fat
WARNING: Do Not put solid shortening in
the oil container or the frying basket.
• If using solid vegetable shortening, melt
it first in a separate pan and then very
carefully pour the melted fat into the oil
container.
• Previously used solid vegetable shortening
which has curdled and hardened in the oil
container should be removed from the oil
container and melted in a separate pan
before reusing.
• Use blended vegetable oil, pure corn oil
or canola oil. Do not use olive oil,
margarine, lard or drippings.
• The oil level must always be maintained
between the minimum and the maximum
levels marked inside the oil container.
Check the oil level before each use. For
best results, keep the oil close to the
maximum level on the oil container.
(Fig. 5)
• Never mix different oils and fats
together. Do not mix old and new oil.
Filling the Oil Container
Never plug in the deep fryer before filling
with oil to specified level. Always make
sure control panel is securely in place in
the body and the heating element is inside
the oil in the container before plugging in.

reached the set temperature, open the
cover, place the frying basket onto the
oil draining hook, put food into the
frying basket and carefully lower the
frying basket into the hot oil. Close the
cover.

setting, the temperature ready light
will turn on.
Note: The temperature ready light will cycle
off and on during the frying cycle as the
unit maintains the selected
temperature.
11. When cooking is complete, open the
cover carefully to avoid burns caused
by escaping steam. Lift the frying
basket and hook it onto the oil draining
hook to allow the food to drain.
12. Remove the food from the frying basket
by:
Lifting the frying basket by
its handle and
CAREFULLY pouring food onto
a plate covered with paper towels or
into desired serving utensil.
Using tongs to grasp the
food from the
