Cleaning Instructions
To ensure many years of service from
your appliance, clean your deep fryer
after every use.
WARNING: Always remove the plug
from the electrical wall outlet and from
the appliance before cleaning. Allow the
deep fryer and the oil to cool completely
(approximately 2 hours) before cleaning.
Never immerse the control panel, cord or
plug in water or any other liquid.
• Do not place the control panel, cord
or plug in the dishwasher.
• Clean the control panel with a damp
cloth only.
• The oil reservoir, frying basket, and
lid cover can be washed on the top
rack of a dishwasher. Remove the
permanent filter from the fryer lid first.
• The body of the deep fryer can be
washed in warm soapy water. Do
not put the body of the deep fryer in
the dishwasher.
• To clean the permanent filter, remove
it from the cover and wash it in hot
soapy water. Rinse and dry well
before re-inserting it into the deep fryer
cover. Replace the filter cover.
CAUTION: Do not clean the permanent
filter in the dishwasher.
The Reset Feature
Your deep fryer is equipped with a reset
feature. If for some reason the deep
fryer stops heating, the reason may be
that the reset switch has tripped.
To reset the deep fryer:
1. Unplug the appliance from the
electrical wall outlet and then from the
fryer socket.
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. 10)
4. Re-assemble the control panel to the
housing of the deep fryer and then
you may resume frying.
