Helpful Hints

❖ If unit fails to preheat or if the cooking process stops, check cord assembly to assure plug is properly attached to the
appliance (see Fig. C on page 2).
❖ When using the fryer for the first time, a slight odor or light smoking may occur as manufacturing residue evaporates.
This is normal during initial use.
❖ Before deep frying, always remove excess moisture or ice crystals from food by patting dry with toweling. even small
amounts of moisture may cause the oil to spatter, pop, boil over, or erupt.
❖ When preparing your favorite recipes, fry 1 to 4 cups food, in unit, at a time. If too much food is fried at the same time,
the food will not get crisp.
❖ For breading or coating foods, use commercial breading, finely ground bread or cracker crumbs, corn meal, mixture of
corn meal and flour, pancake mix, or prepared bread mixes.
❖ Use only heat resistant utensils in the fryer as most plastics or rubber will become damaged from the hot oil. Do not
leave metal utensils in the fryer as they will become hot.
❖ After each use, strain oil through a filter or a double thickness of cheesecloth to remove the accumulated residue.
❖ It is time to replace the cooking oil if the oil is dark in color, has an unpleasant odor, smokes when it is heated, or foams
excessively during frying.
