PAGE 2
Important Cord and Plug Information A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. DO NOT USE WITH AN EXTENSION CORD. Do not allow the cord to run underneath or around the unit. The magnetic cord may not detach easily if the cord is positioned in this fashion. Connect the power supply cord to a 120VAC electrical outlet only. Before First Use Become familiar with the various parts of the deep fryer (Fig.
PAGE 3
may cause the oil to boil over the top of the fryer. The MIN and MAX fill levels are embossed inside the removable pot (Fig. A1, page 2). The maximum amount of oil for this fryer is 5 quarts and the minimum amount is 3½ quarts. u Use vegetable oil for deep frying, such as corn, sunflower, peanut, or soybean. Deep frying foods in olive oil is not recommended because it has a lower smoking temperature. u Do not use solid fat (shortening, butter, margarine, lard).
PAGE 4
9. When the selected temperature is reached, the signal light will go out. (Preheat time is approximately 20 minutes.) 10. While oil is heating, prepare food for cooking. Note: The black cover vents will expand and appear to change shape when the fryer is heating. When the cover cools, the vents will contract and appear to return to their original position. Both the expansion and contraction are normal. 11. Assemble basket handles for frying, see page 3.
PAGE 5
u Foods that are battered may stick to the baskets; therefore, you may wish to fry these types of foods without the baskets. If, however, you want to use the baskets, lower the baskets into the oil before placing battered foods in the oil. Coated or breaded foods can be fried with or without the baskets. When using the fryer without the baskets, a heat resistant scoop may be used to add and/or remove foods.

4. Before reassembling unit, be sure all parts are completely dry (see page 2). For compact storage, place control assembly and baskets on their side inside of removable pot. 5. Always check the magnetic plug before use to assure metal items have not become attached to the magnet. 6. Periodically check the screws on the base handles and feet to be sure they are tight. Retighten, if necessary, with a standard #2 Phillips head screwdriver.
