Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.  
1. Before Using for the First Time  
Warning: Never plug in the control panel (#5) when it is not installed in the fryer body with  
heating element (#13) in the oil container. Do not immerse the control panel, cord or  
plug in water.  
Warning: This unit should not be used to boil water.  
Prior To First Use, Clean The Unit Thoroughly  
Warning: Always let the fryer cool completely for 2 hours before taking it apart for cleaning.  
Never carry or move the Deep Fryer with hot oil inside. Before cleaning, always make  
sure the plug is not in the wall socket.  
• All components with the exception of the electrical parts, can be washed in warm soapy water.  
Dry thoroughly before use.  
• Use basket handle (#15) to remove the frying basket (# 14). Always make sure the basket  
handle is securely attached to the basket. To attach the handle to the frying basket, insert the  
metal part of the handle inside the metal bracket on the frying basket. (Fig. 1)  
• Lift the control panel with heating element (#5) out of its slots by pushing it up from the bottom  
with one hand while holding the body (#1) of the deep fryer with your other hand.  
• Remove the oil container (#3).  
• Clean the oil container (#3) and the frying basket (#14) with hot water, dishwashing liquid and a  
non-abrasive sponge.  
MAX  
Fig. 1  
Warning: Never immerse the control panel (#5) in water or any other liquids.  
Warning: All components must be completely dried before filling with oil or using. Special care  
must be taken to ensure the washable oil filter (#17) 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.  
Warning: Never exceed “MAX” line when filling the basket with food.

2. Filling the Stainless Steel Container With Oil  
Warning: Never plug in the Deep Fryer before filling with oil to specified level. Always make  
sure control panel (#5) is securely in place in the body (#1) and the heating element  
(#13) is inside the oil in the container before plugging in.  
• 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 (11 cups/2.75 liters) and the  
maximum (14 cups/3.5 liters) levels marked inside the oil container (#3). Check the oil level  
before each use. For best results, keep the oil close to the maximum level (14 cups/3.5 liters).  
Fig. 2  
• Never mix different oils and fats together. Do not mix old and new oil.  
Fig. 2  
Using Solid Fat  
Warning: Do not put solid shortening in the oil container (#3) or the frying basket (#14).  
• If using solid vegetable shortening, melt it first in a separate pan and then very carefully  
pour the melted fat into the oil container (#3).  
• Previously used solid vegetable shortening which has curdled and hardened in the oil  
container (#3) should be removed from the oil container and melted in a separate pan  
before reusing.  
Warning: If you try to melt the solidified fat in the oil container (#3), there is a risk of warm  
melted fat suddenly sputtering from below through the still solid top layer of fat.  
Therefore use only the following procedure:  
• Make sure the fat is at room temperature. If the fat is very cold, there is a greater risk of  
splashing.  
• Using a fork, carefully make some holes in the fat. Make sure the lid is securely closed  
while fat is melting. Set temperature dial (#8) to 320° F (160 °C).

4. Using the Deep Fryer  
Warning: Never plug in the Deep Fryer before filling with oil to specified level. Always make  
sure control panel (#5) is securely in place in the body (#1) and the heating element  
(#13) is inside the oil in the container before plugging in.  
Important: Ensure the control panel (#5) is fitted correctly to the main unit otherwise the unit will  
not function. This is not a defect. This product is fitted with a safety switch to  
prevent the unit from turning on accidentally.  
Pre-Heating  
Warning: Never plug in the Deep Fryer before filling with oil. (See instructions in section 2.)  
Always unplug the appliance when not in use.  
• Make sure the oil level in the oil container (#3) is between the “minimum” and “maximum”  
lines inside the oil container (#3).  
• The frying basket (#14) should not be immersed in the oil during the pre-heating.  
• Replace the lid cover (# 10).  
• Plug the appliance into a 120-volt outlet.  
• Turn the on/off switch (#6) to the “on” position.  
• Select the required temperature on the temperature setting dial (#8). Fig. 3  
Fig. 3  
Warning: In order to avoid injury or burns, never touch any metal parts on the deep fryer  
because they may be hot.  
• Pre heating the oil will take up to 15 minutes depending on the temperature selected.  
•The temperature indicator light (# 7) will come on when the temperature is set and the deep  
fryer is “on” showing that the heating element is in operation. This light goes off when the set  
temperature is reached. Fig. 4 The temperature light may go on and off several times during  
frying. This indicates that the temperature is thermostatically maintained.

Filling the Frying Basket  
• Do not fill the frying basket (#14) when it is immersed in oil.  
• Place the food in the frying basket (# 14). 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 lb. 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: When frying foods, remove the frying basket (#14) from the deep fryer before filling  
with frozen food because oil will spatter and cause burns.  
IMPORTANT: When frying frozen foods such as French Fries, you should not exceed 1 Lb.  
(454 gr.) For healthy, crispy results limit quantity to 3/4 Lb. (350 gr.) or less.  
Frying Food  
Warning: To avoid injury or burns, do not touch any metal parts on the deep fryer because  
they may be hot.  
• Always use the frying basket (#14) to fry food.  
• Always close the lid (#10) during frying.  
• When the oil is pre-heated, temperature indicator light (#7) will go off to indicate desired  
temperature is reached.  
• Slowly lower the frying basket (#14) 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.  
Warning: When opening the lid cover (#10) after frying, lift up the lid slightly, then wait to allow  
steam to escape before opening the lid completely. Keep face away from unit to  
avoid burns caused by escaping steam.

5. At the End of Cooking  
Warning: When you have finished frying, always turn the temperature setting dial (#8) to lowest  
position and unplug the deep fryer. To avoid injury or burns, do not touch any metal  
surfaces as they may be hot.  
• Set temperature setting dial (#8) to lowest position, (turn fully counter-clockwise.)  
• Turn “On/Off” switch (#6) to “Off” position.  
• Unplug the main cord from the wall socket.  
• Lift up the lid cover (# 10) slowly and wait to allow steam to escape before opening the lid  
cover (#10) completely.  
• Lift up the frying basket (# 14) by the handle (#15). Place it on the basket rest (#11) and allow  
the food to drain for a minute.  
• Once the oil has drained from the frying basket (#14), the basket may be lifted off and the food  
served.  
Warning: Always let the deep fryer cool completely (approximately 2 hours) before cleaning or  
storing. Never carry or move the deep fryer with hot oil inside.  
• Wind the main cord & store inside the main cord storage (#19) cavity at the rear of the control  
panel. Fig. 5

6. 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.  
• 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.  
Important: When frying frozen food such as French Fries,  
you should not exceed 1 lb. (454 gr.). For healthy, crisp  
results, limit quantity to 3/4 Lb. (350 gr.) or less.  
The following cooking times reflect only the approximate time needed to fry one basket 1/2  
full. The exact time may be different depending on actual quantity, personal cooking  
preferences, size and thickness of pieces, etc...  
Temperature Settings  
In general, use lower settings for delicate foods (vegetables, fish) and higher settings for frozen  
foods, French Fries and Chicken.

7. FILTERING & CHANGING THE OIL  
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  
(#3) into another container or bottle. Fig. 6  
Wash and dry the oil container and basket. Refill the oil container with the oil, pouring the oil  
through a wire strainer or paper filter. Fig. 7

8. How To Reset the Deep Fryer  
If for some reason the deep fryer stops heating, the reason might be that the safety reset  
switch has disconnected. To reconnect the the deep fryer, follow the instructions listed below:  
• Set the temperature setting dial (#8) to “Min” position.  
• Turn the “On/Off” switch (#6) to the “Off” position.  
• Let the deep fryer cool for minimum 15 minutes.  
• Turn the “On/Off” switch (#6) to the “On” (#6) position.  
• Push the reset button (#18) located on the back of the control panel (#5) inside the cord  
storage (#19) compartment. Fig. 8
