Before Using Your Deep Fryer
DO NOT immerse the deep fryer in
water. Filter is NOT washable. Always
remove the filter from the cover before
washing the cover.
Make sure the fryer is unplugged. Wash
the fryer basket and cover in hot, soapy
water. Wipe dry thoroughly. Wipe the
inside of the oil reservoir with a damp
cloth and wipe dry thoroughly before
adding the oil.
Warning: All components must be
completely dried before filling with oil or
using. Special care must be taken to
ensure the filter compartment and cover
are completely dry, otherwise the filter
will not function properly and may lead to
steam being trapped within the fryer
during use.
Assembling Your Deep Fryer
Caution: Never turn on the deep fryer
when the oil reservoir is empty. Always
ensure the deep fryer is out of the
reach of children. Always use the deep
fryer on a flat, heat resistant surface.
1. Place filter into filter compartment.
Insert filter cover and snap (lock) into
place.
2. Make sure the temperature control is
in the “Off” position.

The top of the cord can be identified
by the “THIS SIDE UP” raised print.

MAX
Use blended vegetable oil, pure corn
oil or canola (rapeseed) 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 reservoir. (Fig. 4) Check the oil level
before each use. For best results, keep
the oil close to the maximum level (4
cups / 1 liter). Never mix different oils
and fats together. Do not mix old and
new oil.
Filling the Oil Reservoir With Oil
Warning: Never plug in the deep
fryer before filling with oil to specified
level.

Using Solid Fat
Warning: It is NOT RECOMMENDED
to put solid shortening in the oil reservoir
or the fryer basket.
If using solid vegetable shortening,
melt it first in a separate pan and then
very carefully pour the melted fat into
the oil reservoir.
Previously used solid vegetable
shortening which has curdled and
hardened in the oil reservoir should be
removed from the oil reservoir and
melted in a separate pan before
reusing.
