OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
PREHEAT
COOKING
BEFORE FIRST TIME USE:
• Remove all printed documents and any other packaging materials.
• Pull out all removable parts and wash gently with hot water. Do not immerse the power cord, control
panel or heating element into any liquid.
• Dry all parts thoroughly before assembling.
• Always fi ll to the MIN or MAX fi ll line. Do not fi ll over the MAX marking or lower than the MIN marking.
• Peanut oil is recommended because of the great taste and higher smoke point but any common
cooking oil may be used. Do not mix different types of oil for frying.
• Replace the oil after each 10-15 uses; or earlier if the oil becomes brown and thick.
• When you fry several different kinds of food, always fry the food that uses the lowest temperature
setting fi rst.
1. Fill oil to MIN or MAX fi ll line.
2. Wipe the inside viewing window on lid with a little oil to prevent
condensation.
3. Plug the breakaway cord into the outlet. The Power indicator light
will turn on.
4. Set the desired temperature and set the timer to fi ve minutes.* The Heat indicator light will turn on.
5. While the oil is preheating, take time to prepare the food that is going to be cooked.
6. When the oil has reached the set temperature, the Heat indicator light will turn off.
7. Reset the timer to the desired frying time.
Note: The Heat indicator light will periodically go on and off to maintain the set temperature.
*Depending on the set temperature and the amount of oil, the pre-heating time will vary.
1. Fill basket with food. Do not overfi ll the basket. When placing food into the basket, make sure it is
as dry as possible. Remove any ice crystals or water from food to reduce hot oil splatter.
2. Lower basket of food into hot oil.
3. Cover with lid.
4. Timer will sound when desired cooking time has been reached. The unit will
shut off when timer reaches the 0 position. Turn the Temperature control
knob to 0 position and unplug the unit.
5. Carefully remove the lid. Removing the lid will release hot steam. Take
extreme care when handling. Keep face and hands clear of steam release.

the basket to drain excess oil.
7. Use handle to remove basket from unit and transfer food to plate lined with paper towels to absorb
remaining oil.
• Do not touch the control panel during the frying process. Hot steam may be released and could cause
injury.
• If you are frying more than one load, ensure the oil re-heats to the required temperature.
• Do not move unit while in use. Wait until deep fryer has completely cooled to move.
