READ AND UNDERSTAND ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE

USING YOUR KING KOOKER® PRODUCT

INTRODUCTION

Your new King Kooker® Outdoor Cooker is equipped with the SmartFryerTM gas shut-off system. This system helps prevent the overheating of cooking oil and fires which could result, by stopping the gas flow to the appliance. The pot contains a high temperature probe that senses when the oil temperature is too high. The system then stops gas flow to the appliance.

To operate your new cooker, the pot must be properly placed and plugged into the burner system as per the assembly instructions in this manual.

The system will also stop gas flow in the event the flame blows out, preventing a dangerous build up of gas that could ignite.

The gas shut-off system is NOT a replacement for proper monitoring. Your cooker must always be attended while in use and monitored after use while still hot [100˚F (38˚ C)]. The oil in the pot can overheat quickly if left unattended. The thermometer supplied with this appliance must always be used to monitor the temperature of the cooking liquid.

FAILURE TO FOLLOW THESE INSTRUCTIONS

AND WARNINGS COULD RESULT IN FIRE, EXPLOSION OR BURN HAZARD WHICH COULD CAUSE PROPERTY DAMAGE, PERSONAL INJURY OR DEATH.
