Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully. 1. Before Using for the First Time Warning: Never immerse the Deep Fryer / Fondue Maker in water or any other liquids. Warning: This unit should not be used to boil water. Prior To First Use, Clean The Unit Thoroughly • Remove all packaging materials and accessories from the appliance. • Clean the inside of the bowl with a damp soapy wash cloth and wash the frying basket in warm soapy water. • Dry thoroughly before use.
2. Filling the Stainless Steel Container With Oil Warning: Never plug in the Deep Fryer / Fondue Maker before filling it with oil or fondue liquid. • Use blended vegetable oil, pure corn oil or canola (rapeseed) oil. Do not use olive oil, margarine, lard or drippings. • The oil level must always be maintained between the minimum and the maximum levels marked inside the Bowl (# 6). Check the oil level before each use. For best results, keep the oil close to the maximum level (4 cups/1 liter). Fig. 2.
3. Using the Deep Fryer / Fondue Maker Pre-Heating Warning: Never plug in the Deep Fryer / Fondue Maker before filling with oil or fondue liquid. Always unplug the appliance when not in use. • Make sure the oil level in the bowl (# 6) is between the “minimum” and “maximum” lines inside the bowl (# 6). (See page 3, Fig. 2.) • The frying basket (# 4) should not be immersed in the oil during the pre-heating. • Plug the appliance into a 120-volt outlet.
4. At the End of Cooking Warning: When you have finished frying, always turn the temperature setting knob (# 10) to “Off” position and unplug the deep fryer / fondue maker. • Set temperature setting knob (# 10) to “Off” position. • Unplug the main cord from the wall socket. • The “On” indicator light (# 12) will go off. • Lift up the cover (# 2) slowly and wait to allow steam to escape before opening the lid cover (# 2) completely. • Lift up the frying basket (# 4) by the handle (# 3).
5. Frying Tips • Do not mix different 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). When oil is used mainly to fry potatoes and is filtered after each use, it can be used up to 8 to 10 times, but do not use the same oil for more than 6 months.
6. FILTERING & CHANGING THE OIL • Make sure the deep fryer / fondue maker is unplugged and the oil has cooled before cleaning or storing the deep fryer. • 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.
8. Cleaning the Filter • Your Deep Fryer / Fondue Maker is fitted with a filter that is washable. • Remove the screws on the underside of the cover (#2) and release the cover plate. (Fig. 4) • Take out the filter and gently wash with soapy water, rinse and dry thoroughly. • Clean the inside of the cover (#2) and place the filter back. • Replace the cover plate and screws. Ensure that the screws are fully tightened. Filter Cover Plate Fig.
