• Make sure the deep fryer 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.
• To filter the oil first make sure the oil
has cooled and then empty the oil from
the oil container into another container
or bottle. Fig. 5

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.
At the End of Cooking
• Press the power button and the
power off.
• Unplug the main cord from the wall
socket.
• Lift up the lid cover slowly and wait to
allow steam to escape before
opening the lid cover completely.
• Lift up the frying basket by the
handle. Place it on the oil container
and allow the food to drain for a
minute.
• Once the oil has drained from the
frying basket, the basket may be
lifted off and the food served.
Warning: In order to avoid injury or
burns, never touch any metal parts on the
deep fryer because they may be hot.
Using for the First Time
Warning: Never immerse the control
panel in water or any other liquids.
Warning: Never plug in the control panel
when it is not installed in the fryer body
with heating element in the oil container.
Do not immerse the control panel, cord or
plug in water.
Warning: All components must be
completely dried before filling with oil
or using. Special care must be taken
to ensure the washable oil filter in the
lid is completely dry, otherwise the
filter will not function properly and may
lead to steam being trapped within the
fryer during use.
Filling the Frying Basket
• Do not fill the frying basket when it is
immersed in oil.
• Place the food in the frying basket. Do
not overfill it and never exceed the
maximum quantities. For optimum
results and shorter frying time, basket
should be only 1/2 full.
• The basket has approximately 1 lbs.
food capacity. It will hold 3-4 average
size pieces of chicken.
• Do not fill the basket higher than the
MAX line on the basket with frozen
food.
Warning: This unit should not be used
to boil water.
Prior To First Use, Clean The Unit
Thoroughly
Warning: Never exceed "MAX" line when
filling the basket with food.
Warning: Always let the fryer cool

when making donuts, hush puppies or
other deep fried foods where the food
being cooked needs to be held immersed
in the oil.
To assemble the basket cove and handle:
• Squeezing the handle legs together,
insert the ends into the bracket holes in
the lid. (Fig. 2)
• Squeeze the handle legs once again and
clip the legs into the two (2) hooks at the
back of the lid.
• Push the spreader bar down the handle
legs to lock the handle in place.
Warning: When frying foods, remove
the frying basket from the deep fryer before
filling with frozen food because oil will
spatter and cause burns.
• All components with the exception of the
electrical parts, can be washed in warm
soap water. Dry thoroughly before use.
• Use basket handle to remove the frying
basket. Always make sure the basket
handle is securely attached to the
basket. Attach the handle to the frying
basket, insert the metal part of the
handle inside the metal bracket on the
frying basket. (Fig. 1)
Frying Tips
• Do not mix different oils or new and old
oil together.
Caution: When frying frozen foods such
as French Fries, you should not exceed 3/4
Lb. (350 gr.) or less. Clean off any ice from
frozen food prior to frying. Failure to do so
may cause fryer to overflow when food is
placed in oil.
• 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.
• Always replace all oil as soon as it
starts foaming when heated or when
color becomes dark or when it has a
rancid smell or taste or becomes
syrupy.
• Make sure that the food to be fried is
dry.
• Remove loose ice from frozen food
before frying.
• To cook evenly, pieces should be the
same size and thickness.
• Thicker pieces will take longer to cook.
Frying Food
• Lift the control panel with heating
element out of its slots by pushing it up
from the bottom with one hand while
holding the body of the deep fryer with
your the other hand.
• Always use the frying basket to fry food.
• Always close the lid cover during frying.
• When the oil is pre-heated, ready
indicator light will come on it indicating
that the desired temperature is reached.
• Slowly lower the frying basket into the
hot oil. Lowering the frying basket too
quickly can result in the oil overflowing
and splashing.
• Replace the lid carefully.
• It is normal for steam to escape through
the sides of the lid while frying.
• Avoid standing too close to the deep
fryer while it is working.
• Remove the oil container.
• Clean the oil container and the frying
basket with hot water, dishwashing liquid
or other non-poisonous detergent and
non-abrasive sponge.
Fig. 2
Warning: When opening the lid cover
after frying, lift up the lid slightly, then wait
to allow steam to escape before opening
the lid completely. Keep face away from
