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 tank should be
removed from the oil container and
melted in a separate pan before
reusing.
Warning: If you try to melt the solidified
fat in the oil container, there is a risk of
warm melted fat suddenly sputtering from
below through the still solid top layer of fat.
Therefore use only the following
procedure:
• Make sure the fat is at room
temperature. If the fat is very cold, there
is a greater risk of splashing.
• Using a fork, carefully make some holes
in the fat. Make sure the lid is securely
closed while fat is melting. Set
temperature dial to 320º F (160º C).
• Lift up the control panel with heating
element. (Fig. 3)
• Insert the control panel into the
mounting boss on the deep fryer
body. (Fig. 4)
Note: The Automatic Safety Interlock
Switch ensures that the unit will not
operate unless the control panel has
been inserted into the mounting boss of
the deep fryer body correctly. This is not
a defect. This product is fitted with a
safety switch to prevent the unit from
turning on accidentally.
Installing the “Control Panel With
the Heating Element” Into Place
Warning: 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.
Important: Ensure the control panel is
fitted correctly to the main unit otherwise
the unit will not function. This is not a
defect. This product is fitted with a
safety interlock switch to prevent the
unit from turning on accidentally.
Using the Deep Fryer
Frying Baskets
• You have a choice of three different
sizes of baskets for your frying needs.
• The small and medium baskets can be
used for appropriate portions of food.
• The large divided basket can be used to
fry two different foods that require the
same frying temperature at the same
time or by removing the divider, you can
fry larger quantities. To remove the
divider make sure the basket is cool.
• Place the divider in the guide rails of the
large basket. (Fig. 5)
