Getting Started
• Fill the bowl with oil.
The oil level should always be between the MIN and MAX level of the bowl.
Do not exceed the maximum fill line as boiling oil may overflow during frying and can cause
severe burns.
• For best results we recommend vegetable oil.
NOTE: Never use different types of oil at the same time as this may cause the oil to overflow.
• If you use solid vegetable shortening:
Cut the shortening into small pieces and melt it in a separate pan. Pour the melted
shortening into the fryer bowl.
NOTE: Never melt the shortening on the heating element or in the frying basket. If you melt
the shortening on the heating element or in the frying basket, the safety cut-out will be
activated. Press the “reset” button, which is located at the back of the fryer.
