CLEAN BEFORE USING
CAUTION: To prevent personal injury or electric shock, do not immerse fryer base, its cord or plug in water or
other liquid.
Before using fryer, clean parts as follows:
Liner: Liner must be removed from base for cleaning. To remove, pull liner release lever forward, then lift liner out
of base. Wash liner in hot soapy water with dishcloth, rinse and dry thoroughly. Place liner back into base with MIN
and MAX markings to the back. Push liner release lever in, until even with front of fryer, to secure liner in base.
Deep fryer will not function unless liner release lever is pushed in all the way.
Base: Wipe outside of base with a damp cloth and dry.
Basket: Wash basket and handle in hot soapy water with dishcloth, rinse and dry.
Cover: Wipe cover with a damp cloth and dry. Do not put cover in water as charcoal filter will become wet.
Your deep fryer is now ready to use.
FRYING GUIDELINES: Before using deep fryer, carefully review the following guidelines for safe use:
WARNING: To prevent severe personal injury or property damage, use caution when cooking with hot oil.
• Always use fryer on a stable, dry and level heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.
• Always make sure liner is completely dry and secured in base before adding vegetable oil for cooking.
• Fill liner with vegetable oil to the MAX fill mark, about 11 cups. Do not fill liner beyond MAX fill mark to
prevent boil-over of hot oil when food is added.
• Use only good quality vegetable oil for frying. Do not use vegetable shortening, lard, butter, margarine or olive
oil for frying as these are not suitable for high temperature frying.
• Never add water or any other liquid to oil for frying as any amount of liquid can cause eruption of hot oil.
• Always add oil to liner before fryer is plugged in. Do not allow fryer to heat before oil is added to prevent
damage to fryer or possible ignition of oil.
• Do not use fryer under a cabinet as excessive steam is emitted from cover vent which can cause damage.
• Always remove any excess moisture or ice crystals from foods before frying by blotting dry with paper toweling.
This will help prevent excessive spattering and foaming of hot oil.
• For even cooking, fry similar-sized pieces of food and do not overfill basket. As a general rule, do not fill basket
more than ⅔ full with food to ensure food is completely covered with oil when cooking.
• Food can be breaded or batter-coated before frying if desired. Follow recipe directions.
• Foods are normally done when they float to the surface and are nicely browned. Empty food from basket onto
paper toweling to drain before serving.
• Always secure cover onto fryer whenever oil is hot.
• Hot steam escapes from cover causing burns. To prevent personal injury or steam burns, use protective oven
mitt when opening.
• Use only metal cook tools in fryer. Do not use plastic or rubber cook tools as they will be damaged from hot oil.
• It is best to use fresh oil each time the fryer is used to prevent transfer of flavor.
• Do not reuse oil more than two times as oil deteriorates with use.
• When finished frying, unplug cord from wall outlet, secure cover onto fryer and allow covered fryer to cool
completely before removing oil and cleaning.
• Always allow fryer to cool completely before removing liner.
• Replace charcoal filter after every 10 to 12 uses to help reduce odor when frying and also to prevent oil from
overflowing due to using a dirty filter. See Warranty section in this book for ordering replacement charcoal
filters. Do not use fryer without charcoal filter.
