Before cleaning, always make sure the plug is not in the wall socket. Warning: All components must be completely dried before filling with oil or using. Special care must be taken to ensure that 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 Deep Fryer / Fondue Maker during use. 3 2. Filling the Stainless Steel Container With Oil 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. • Never mix different oils and fats together. Do not mix old and new oil. • If using solid vegetable shortening, melt it first in a separate pan and then very carefully pour the melted fat into the Bowl (# 6). • Previously used solid vegetable shortening which has curdled and hardened in the Bowl (# 6) should be removed from the bowl and melted in a separate pan before reusing. Fig. 2 4 3. Using the Deep Fryer / Fondue Maker 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. • The “On” indictor (#12) will come on, then select the temperature on the temperature setting knob (# 10) . • The temperature indicator light (# 11) will come on when the temperature has been set. • The temperature indicator light (#11) goes “Off” when the temperature has been reached. The light may go “On” and “Off” several times during frying. This indicates that the temperature is thermostatically maintained. • Pre-heating the oil will take up to 15 minutes depending on the temperature selected. Filling the Frying Basket • Do not fill the frying basket (# 4) when it is immersed in oil. • Place the food in the frying basket (# 4). Do not overfill it and never exceed the maximum quantities. For optimum results and shorter frying time, basket should be only 1/2 full. • Do not fill the basket more than 3/4 full with frozen food. Warning: When frying foods, remove the frying basket (# 4) from the deep fryer before filling with frozen food because oil will spatter and cause burns. Frying Food • Always use the frying basket (# 4) to fry food. • Always close the cover (# 2) during frying. • When the oil is pre-heated, temperature indicator light (# 11) will go off to indicate desired temperature is reached. • Slowly lower the frying basket (# 4) into the hot oil. Lowering the frying basket too quickly can result in the oil overflowing and splashing. • It is normal for steam to escape through the sides of the cover (#2) 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 4. At the End of Cooking 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). Place it on the bowl edge and allow the food to drain for a minute. • Once the oil has drained from the frying basket (# 4), 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. 6 5. Frying Tips 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. • 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. •...
