The following cooking times reflect the approximate time needed to fry one basket filled
only to the MAX line. The exact time may be different depending on actual quantity,
personal cooking preferences, size and thickness of pieces, etc...
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Temperature Settings
In general, use lower settings for delicate foods (vegetables, fish) and higher settings
for frozen foods, French Fries and chicken.
Note: The oil does not need to be
changed after each use. In general, the oil
will be tainted rather quickly when frying
food containing a lot of protein (such as
poultry, meat or fish). When oil is mainly
used to fry potatoes and is filtered after
each use, it can be used 8 to 10 times.
However, do not use the same oil for longer
than 6 months.
To filter the oil:
1. Make sure the oil has cooled
(approximately 2 hours) and then empty
the oil from the oil reservoir into another
container or bottle. (Fig. 7)
2. Wash and dry the oil reservoir and
frying basket.
3. Refill the oil reservoir with the oil by
pouring the oil through a wire
strainer or paper filter. (Fig. 8)

Frying Tips
• Do not mix different types of oils or
new and old oil together.
• Replace oil regularly. In general, oil
will be tainted fast when frying food
containing a lot of protein, (such as
poultry, meat and fish).
At the End of Cooking
1. Turn the temperature control to “Off”
and the safety timer to zero.
2 Unplug the power cord from the
electrical socket.
3. Lift up the lid cover slowly and wait
to allow steam to escape before
opening the lid cover completely.
4. Lift up the frying basket by the
handle. Place it on the oil reservoir
and allow the food to drain for a
minute. (Fig. 6)
5 Once the oil has drained from the
frying basket, the frying basket may
be lifted off and the food served.
Warning: Always let the deep fryer
cool completely (approximately 2 hours)
before cleaning or storing. Never carry
or move the deep fryer with hot oil
inside.

Filtering & Changing the Oil

before changing the oil, or cleaning and
storing the deep fryer.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Cleaning Instructions
Warning: Always remove the plug
from the wall socket 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.
To clean your deep fryer and it parts,
always follow the instruction under the
section “Cleaning Prior to First Use”.
• 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.
• 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.
Detachable Power Cord
Your deep fryer has been specifically
designed with your safety in mind. Your
deep fryer features a detachable power
cord. This power cord is designed to
break away from the fryer body in the
event that the cord is inadvertently
pulled or tugged. This safety feature is
intended to prevent the deep fryer from
accidentally tipping over and
dangerously spilling the hot oil inside.
To attach the power cord:
1. The male receptacle
for the power cord is
permanently attached
to the rear of the
control panel. (Fig. 9)
2. To connect the female
power cord plug to the
male receptacle on the appliance,
orient the female plug so that it
mates with the male receptacle.
Note: The female plug can only be
inserted one way. If the female plug will
not go into the receptacle on the
appliance, rotate the male plug 180°.
IMPORTANT: Should the magnetic
plug become detached from the
appliance during use, it is important to
do the following:
1. Unplug the power cord from the
electrical outlet.
2. Turn the safety timer to zero and turn
the temperature control to the “Off”
position.
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. Push the thermostat reset button
located on the back of the control
panel with a ball point pen or pencil.
(Fig. 10)
2. The unit will beep to indicate that it
has reset and you may resume
cooking.

4. Re-connect the power cord to the
electrical outlet.
5. Resume cooking.
• When oil is used mainly to fry
potatoes, and is filtered after each
use, it can be used up to 8 to 10
times.
• Do not use the same oil for more
than 6 months.
• Always replace all oil when it starts
to foam when heated, when it’s color
becomes dark, when it has a rancid
smell or taste, or when it becomes
syrupy.
• Make sure that the food to be fried is
as dry as possible.
• Always remove loose ice from
frozen food before frying.
• To cook evenly, pieces should be the
same size and thickness.
• Thicker pieces will take longer to
cook.
3. Re-attach the power cord to the
receptacle at the rear of the
appliance.
