Tips for Frying with the Multicooker
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 the oil is filtered after each use. Oil used for food
that is high in protein (such as meat or fish) should be
changed more often.
• To filter oil, allow oil to completely cool. 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 if it starts to foam when heated, when
it has a strong smell or taste, or when it turns dark and/or
syrupy.
• Always change oil after frying 2 whole chickens.
Before Frying
• Excess water or ice particles can cause hot oil to splatter or
foam. Remove any excess water from fresh food by blotting
with a paper towel. Remove any ice chunks or build up from
frozen foods.
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 the oil. First, lower the basket fully then carefully place
each piece of battered food into the hot oil. Use the basket
to remove fried battered foods.
WARNING! To reduce the risk of being burned by hot oil,
carefully place food in hot oil.
Storage
• Remove basket handles and store in basket. Place the
removable pot in base then attach the heating element
assembly. Place the boiling rack in the pot, the basket with
cord on the boiling rack and, finally, the lid on the pot.
• It is best to store all oils in the refrigerator or a cool, dark,
dry place for up to six months.

POTENTIAL PROBLEM
Fried food does not have
a golden brown color
and/or is not crispy.
Multicooker gives off
a strong, unpleasant odor.
Unit does not heat.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• The selected temperature is too low or the food has not been fried long enough.
Check food package or Frying Chart for correct temperature or preparation time.
Allow oil in multicooker to preheat before frying.
• There is too much food in the basket. Never fry too much food at one time. See the food
package, Frying Chart, or recipe for correct frying amount. The food pieces may be too
thick to fry adequately.
• Volume of oil is too low.
• The oil isn’t fresh. Change the oil. Filter oil regularly to keep it fresh longer.
• When frying food with a high moisture content (such as chicken, fries, etc.), change oil
frequently.
• The type of oil is not suitable for deep-frying food. Use good quality frying oil. Do not mix
two different types of oil.
• Ensure cord is properly attached to the multicooker socket.
• Ensure cord is plugged into electrical outlet.
• Ensure Power ON/OFF Switch is set to ON.
• Heating Element Assembly not correctly assembled. Make sure the Heating Element
Assembly is properly installed on the base. See “How to Assemble” section.
• The pot is not properly installed on base.
• Press Reset on Heating Element/Control Panel by inserting a small pointed item
(such as a paper clip) into the opening labeled RESET. Make sure the multicooker has
the recommended amount of oil in pot.
• Make sure multicooker has the recommended amount of water (max or min) in the pot.
If below this level, water may boil off and control will turn heater off. Press the RESET
button.

18
POTENTIAL PROBLEM
During frying, the oil spills
over the edge of the
multicooker.
The oil foams too much
during frying.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• There is too much oil in the multicooker. Make sure that the oil does not exceed the
maximum level mark.
• Basket/food immersed too quickly. Carefully raise basket out of the oil.
• The food contains too much liquid. Dry food thoroughly before placing it in the multicooker.
See How to Use the Multicooker.
• When frying food with a high moisture content (such as chicken, fries, etc.), change oil
frequently.
• There is too much food in the frying basket. Do not fry more food at one time than the
quantities indicated on the food package or the Frying Chart.
• The food contains too much liquid. Dry food thoroughly before placing it in the multicooker.
• When frying food with a high moisture content (such as chicken, fries, etc.), change oil
frequently.
• The type of oil is not suitable for deep-frying food. Use good quality frying oil. Do not mix
two different types of oil.
• Basket/food immersed too quickly. Carefully raise basket into the air.
• The use of refrigerated oil may cause excessive splattering. Use room temperature oil.
• Oil pot has not been cleaned properly. See instructions in the “Cleaning” section.
Troubleshooting
840155100 nv10.qxd 5/24/07 9:30 AM Page 18
19
POTENTIAL PROBLEM
Condensation forms on
viewing window.
Oil film buildup on
oil pot.
Steamed foods take
longer than stated time.
READY light does
not illuminate.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• Water vapor from the food collects on window. When unit is cold, wipe a small amount
of oil on inside of viewing window to prevent condensation buildup.
• Use plastic scouring pad to clean.
• Temperature setting not set to MAX.
• Insufficient time allowed to Preheat or Reheat (Oil).
• Light will NOT illuminate when Steaming/Boiling (Water).
