OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
HOW TO FRY
Lift off the lid covering oil container and remove frying basket. Reattach handle if
1.
necessary. To attach the handle, squeeze the metal bars together, then insert the
two prongs into the holes in the bracket on the basket. Be sure the bars are inside
the metal cuffs on the bracket.
Be sure the removable oil container is in the base and that the removable control
2.
unit is properly positioned on the base.
Add enough oil to the oil container to reach between the MIN and MAX marks
3.
inside the oil container. You'll need about 3.75 litres of oil to reach the MAX fill line.
Do not over- or underfill and do not use different oils. (We recommend using liquid
vegetable oil. If you must use a solid, like vegetable shortening, cut it into small
pieces and melt it in a separate pan before carefully adding it to the oil container.)
With the frying basket outside of the unit, put the lid on the fryer. Attach the
4.
breakaway cord to the back of the unit, then plug into outlet.
Turn the temperature control knob to the desired temperature and set the timer to
5.
the desired time; the fryer will begin to heat. NOTE: For safety reasons, the unit will
not turn on until the timer is set. Once the timer is set, the red POWER light will
illuminate. Heating will not begin until the temperature is set.
While the oil heats, the green HEATING light will remain lit. Once the set
6.
temperature is reached, the green heating light will turn off. (Note that it usually
takes at least 10 minutes for oil to heat, so set the timer to account for that as well
as the frying time.)
If desired, put the divider in the basket. To do so, center one hook between the two
7.
prongs of the basket handle and the other hook on the other side of the basket.
Press down on the divider until the divider's feet slide through slots at the bottom
of the basket and the divider is securely hooked on the basket.
Fill the frying basket with the food to be fried. NOTE: Do not overfill the basket.
