electrician to replace the outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized
plug by modifying the plug in any way.

Note : Before first use, Thoroughly clean and dry the fryer.

WARNING: Never operate fryer without oil in oil pot.

1. Place assembled fryer on stable, level, heat-resistant surface out of reach of children.

plugging the cord into the wall outlet. The magnetic end of cord will only go in one way. Be

careful not to disturb the magnetic connection when plugging cord into electrical outlet.

NOTE: The magnetic force is relatively low to ensure that the cord will break away in
the event of being inadvertently pulled; thereby, preventing the deep fryer from being
pulled off a countertop. If it becomes disconnected. Turn the unit off, unplug the
cordset from the wall, reattach the cordset to the Fryer, plug the cordset into the wall
then proceed with operating unit.

6. Close lid. Set temperature control to desired setting. Set Power Switch to ON/I. Preheat the

fryer until the Read to Cook Light comes on (10 to 15minutes).

one batch.

PLUG FROM THE WALL OUTLET FIRST. Use only model LM-132 cordset with this Fryer. Use of

any other cordset may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.

Resetting the Deep Fryer

In the event that the deep fryer is turned on without containing oil, the heating element will

heat up very rapidly. The deep fryer’s electrical unit will auotmatically shut down the heating

element if this occurs. After the unit has completely cooled, remove the electrical unit and

heating element and press the Reset button in the front side of the control panel. If this is not

done, the unit will not function.

Frying Tips!

The Ready to Cook Light may go out after frying a batch of food. When the oil has reached

the selected temperature, the Ready to Cook Light will come back on. The unit is now ready

to fry the next batch of food.
