NFORMATION
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock this plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact
a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature by modifying the
plug in any way.

ELCOME
Congratulations on your purchase of an OSTER
®
Deep Fryer!
To learn more
about OSTER
®
products, visit us at www.oster.com.
Your Deep Fryer includes the
following technology and features:
• Immersion heater for faster heating than conventional deep fryers.
• Fryer Basket allows you to raise and lower the basket from the oil and keep food
warm without further cooking.
• Fryer Basket Handle provides a safe way to remove the basket from the Deep Fryer.
• Fully removable, stainless steel Cooking Pot and immersion heater for easy cleaning.
OPERATING THE BASKET HANDLE
• If handle is loose and not connected to the basket; hold
handle upside down and squeeze the ends together of the
metal rods. While squeezing, bring ends between the two
metal loops at the front of the basket and release the ends
allowing them to engage the loops. Now you can fold up
the handle into the locked position. (See Figure 1)
• Lift handle from the storage position and pull back until
handle is easily locked into position. The handle will not
be able to be moved forward if it is locked properly.
(See Figure 2)
•
To store the basket, the basket handle can be moved back
into the storage
position by pushing the black handle
forward until it has snapped out of the locked position.
It will rest upside down on the basket floor. (See Figure 2)
• It is very important that you lock the handle into place
before using the Fry Basket.
BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME
• Read all the sections of this fold-out manual carefully.
• Remove the fryer from the packaging.
• Open the lid by lifting up on the lid handle.
• Remove all accessories and printed documents from the basket.
• Take out the basket.
• Take out the control box (with heater) by grasping and sliding upward.
• Clean the lid, filter cover, metal mesh filter, basket, cooking pot and the main body
with hot water, a little dishwashing liquid and a sponge or put these parts into the
dishwasher to clean.
• Clean the heater with hot water.
Never immerse the control box in water.
Dry thoroughly, being careful not to bend wires leading to thermostat.
FILLING THE COOKING POT WITH OIL
• Make sure the cooking pot is correctly positioned in the main body.
• Fill pot with oil. The oil level must be maintained between the minimum
and maximum level marks indicated on the inside of the pot. Check the level before
each use and add oil if necessary.
• For healthier, crispier fried foods, we recommend you use a good quality
vegetable oil, pure corn oil, sunflower oil or canola oil.
• Wipe inside of viewing window with a small amount of vegetable oil to help prevent
condensation which can obstruct your view through the window while cooking.
P
RE-HEATING
W
ARNING
:
For your safety, do not use your fryer under wall cupboards and keep away
from curtains and similar fittings. Never leave the appliance unattended while in use.
This appliance is not intended to be used by children.
• During the first use, the fryer may give off a slight odor. This is normal and is due to
the newness of the product.
• Always check before each use that the oil level is between the MINIMUM and
MAXIMUM lines on the inside of the non-stick pot.
• Do not use the fryer without the cooking pot, without oil or with an insufficient level
(below the minimum level).

INDOW
• Always unplug the fryer when not in use.
•
Put the control box on the main body. Grasp the control box and slide down the tracks
at the back of the main body. The heater will be positioned in bottom of cooking pot.
• Cover the cooking pot with the lid. Make sure filter is in place.
• Attach magnetic cord to back of control box and plug into outlet. The proper position
is with the cord angled upward where it attaches at the control box.
The cord is held
in place magnetically. Turn on the power switch on the control box.
The power indicator red light will come on.
•
Turn the thermostat knob to the desired frying temperature. (265°F, 300°F, 340°F, 375°F)
The amber pre-heat indicator light will come on.
• When the oil temperature has risen to the desired setting, the amber pre-heat
indicator light will go out. Pre-heating takes approximately 10-12 minutes.
• Fill the basket with food. DO NOT FILL THE BASKET MORE THAN 2/3 FULL
FROM BOTTOM OF BASKET.
FRYING FOODS
• Remove lid by grasping the cool touch handle and slowly lower
the basket with food into the oil and begin to fry the food.
W
ARNING
:
Do not touch any metal parts of the fryer as
they may be hot.
• Replace the lid on the cooking pot.
• Always use the basket to fry foods.
• The preheat indicator light will cycle on and off during use.
NOTE
: During frying, you may hear a slight clicking noise.
This is normal.
AT THE END OF THE COOKING TIME
•
When the frying time is up, lift the basket up slowly and
out of the oil. Place the basket support clip (at the base of
the basket handle) onto the Basket-hook in the cooking pot
to allow excess oil to drain from the food.
• Let the food drain for a minute, remove basket and lay
food out onto a paper towel lined baking sheet to allow
any remaining oil to drain away.
• For best results, if you are frying more than one load,
you will want to give the oil a chance to heat up to the
proper temperature before placing another load into
the fryer. The pre-heat indicator light will go out.
• Always turn off the power switch and turn the
adjustable temperature dial all the way to the left, or
until you hear a click, or the preheat light goes out.
Unplug the deep fryer when you have finished frying.
• Let the fryer cool completely (1 to 2 hours) before
storing or cleaning.
• Never carry or move the deep fryer with hot oil inside.
FILTERING AND CHANGING THE OIL
• Make sure the fryer is unplugged and the oil has cooled down before cleaning
or storing your fryer.
•
The oil does not need to be changed after each use. On average, oil can be used for 8 to
12 uses. You will need to change it more often when frying fish or heavily battered foods.
• We recommend filtering the oil if you see any food debris left in the oil or on the
bottom of the pot. You may do this by performing the following:
• Remove the basket. Carefully pour the clear oil into another large pot or saucepan
(minimum of 3 to 5 liters), leaving food debris in bottom of cooking pot. Discard this
small amount of oil with food debris.
HOW TO CLEAN
• Prior to washing, wipe oil residue and food debris from cooking pot with paper towels.
• Wipe heater with dry paper towels until it is free from oily residue. Take care not to
bend thermostat wires on heater.
• To clean the control box and heater, use a damp dishcloth that has been dipped in
water and mild dish soap. Completely wipe down all parts of the control box. Wipe
off all residual dish soap with a damp cloth. Do not reassemble the deep fryer until
all the parts are thoroughly dry.
• To remove metal mesh filter, push back on filter cover locking tab and lift up on cover.
• Clean the lid, filter cover, metal mesh filter, basket, bowl and the main body with hot
water, a little dishwashing liquid and a sponge or put these parts into the dishwasher
to clean. The filter can be soaked in warm water with dishwashing liquid. Be sure to
rinse well and allow to dry completely.
Place the bowl as vertically as possible in the dishwasher, while ensuring it will not
hinder the spray arms. Dry thoroughly before reassembling all parts.
S
TORING YOUR APPLIANCE
• Do not store appliance that still contains oil in the oil tank or that has not been
cleaned and dried thoroughly.
• For best results in storing your appliance, fold fry basket handle back into basket,
also, place the control box on the stainless steel base and oil tank.
• Store metal mesh filter under filter cover on lid.
• Store in a dry area. Unit can be stored in its box. Do not place heavy items on top
of the deep fryer or the box, as this could result in damage to your appliance.
