Other Consumer Safety Information

This product is intended for household use only.

This product is only intended for the preparation, cooking, and serving of foods. This product is not intended for use with any nonfood materials or products.

WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.

WARNING! Burn Hazards.

• Serious hot-oil burns may result from a deep-fat fryer being pulled off a countertop. Do not allow the cord to hang over the edge of the counter where it may be grabbed by children or become entangled with the user. Do not use with an extension cord.

• Hot liquid will splash if you miss the drain bracket and accidentally drop the frying basket into the hot liquid. Do not lean over the deep fryer when the lid is off.

Frying Tips

SELECTING AND CHANGING THE FRYING OIL:

• Use a good quality vegetable or peanut oil.

• Frying foods in butter, margarine, olive oil, or animal fat is NOT recommended because of low temperature smoke point.

• DO NOT mix two types of oil.

• Change oil regularly to maintain optimum frying and flavor quality.

• Oil used for french fries can be used 10 to 12 times before changing if oil is filtered after each use. Oil used for food that is high in protein (such as meat or fish) should be changed more frequently.

• To filter oil, allow oil to cool completely. Cheesecloth or paper towel may be used as a filter to strain oil.

• Always follow food package directions.

• DO NOT add fresh oil to used oil.

• Always change the oil when it has a strong smell or taste, or when it turns dark and/or syrupy.

BEFORE FRYING:

• Remove any excess water from fresh food by blotting with a paper towel. Excess water or ice particles can cause hot oil to splatter or foam.

GENERAL TIPS:

• DO NOT use plastic utensils in hot oil.

• Season food AFTER frying.

• If food is not as crisp as desired, reduce batch size.

DISPOSING OF OIL:

• Pour cool oil into its original (resealable) empty plastic bottle.

BASKET USAGE WITH FRESHLY BATTERED FOODS:

• Freshly battered foods should be carefully placed directly into oil. First, lower basket completely and then carefully place each piece of battered food into hot oil. Use basket to remove fried battered foods.

STORAGE:

• Basket handle can be disengaged and rotated into basket. Place oil pot in base and then place basket and power cord in oil pot.

• It is best to store all oils in the refrigerator or a cool, dark, dry place for up to six months.
