Warning and Safety Instructions

Warning and Safety Instructions
When using your Deep Fryer, follow basic safety precautions including the following:
Read all instructions before using for the first time.
Use the appliance only for its in­tended purpose.
Be sure your appliance is properly installed and grounded by a quali-
fied technician or electrician.
Before servicing, disconnect the power supply by removing the fuse
or tripping the circuit breaker.
The electrical safety of this ap-
pliance can only be guaranteed when continuity is complete between the appliance and an effective ground­ing system. It is imperative that this basic safety re­quirement is met. If there is any doubt, have the electrical system of the house checked by a qualified electrician. The manufacturer cannot be held respon­sible for damage caused by the lack or inadequacy of an effective grounding system.
Do not connect the appliance to
the main electric supply using an extension cord. Extension cords do not guarantee the required safety of the ap­pliance.
Never use the Fryer to warm or
heat the room.
Do not allow children to operate or play with or near the Fryer.
Use extreme caution when lifting the basket or disposing of hot
grease.
Keep all toys stored away from the Fryer to prevent injury to curious or
playful children.
Please remember that, in use, the Fryer becomes hot; therefore, en-
sure that children do not touch it.
Do not store items on the Fryer when not in use.
Do not let cooking grease or other
flammable materials accumulate on the appliance. Make certain there is no open flame present when adding oil to the Fryer.
Allow sufficient time for the ap-
pliance to cool before touching or exposing surface areas to flammable materials.
Always cook pork thoroughly to en-
sure that, in the event of trichina, all bacteria will be killed and the meat is safe to eat.
Never leave the appliance unat-
tended when cooking with oil or fat. Very hot oil can cause a fire.
Wear proper apparel – Loose-fitting
or hanging garments should never be worn while using the appliance.
When using an electrical outlet
near the Fryer, make sure that the cable does not come into contact with the heating element of the Fryer.

Warning and Safety Instructions
Warning and Safety Instructions
Repairs on electrical appliances
should only be performed by quali­fied personnel. Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifi­cally recommended in this manual.
Frying oil can normally be used
6-10 times. Between each use the oil should be poured through a strainer lined with a paper towel. Oil containing impurities may ignite.
Do not use water on grease fires. Smother any fire or flame or use a
dry chemical or foam-type extinguisher.
Use only dry potholders. Moist or
damp potholders used on hot sur­faces can result in steam burns. Do not let the potholder touch the hot heating elements. Do not use a towel or other bulky item near the appliance.
Do not store items of interest to
children in cabinets above or be­hind the Fryer – children climbing on the Fryer to reach these items could be seriously injured.
This appliance should only be oper-
ated after being correctly installed.
Always ensure food is sufficiently
cooked or reheated. Many factors affect overall cooking time, including the size and amount of food, its temperature and changes to the recipe. Some foods may contain micro organ­isms which are only destroyed by thor­ough cooking, therefore it is important that the food is thoroughly cooked. If in doubt select a longer cooking or reheat­ing time.
Turn on the Fryer only after the lid is removed and it is filled with oil.
Do not store hot oil in plastic con­tainers. Plastic melts!
The frying oil is no longer usable
and must be changed when it becomes dark and thick, smells un­pleasant and froths, or when it begins to smoke at a temperature of 340° F (170° C) or less.
Discard the used and cool oil or
grease in the trash. Do not pour it down the sink. Oil and grease can block the drain pipes.
Do not use a steam-cleaner to
clean the Deep Fryer. The steam could penetrate to electrcal components and cause a short circuit.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS AND REVIEW THEM PERIODICALLY
Text highlighted in boxes is of par­ticular importance and should be read in conjunction with the Warn­ing and Safety instructions.
Do not leave the Fryer unattended
while in use. Over-heated oil can catch fire. Do not allow an open flame in the vicinity of the Fryer.

Before using for the first time

Before using for the first time
Clean the Deep Fryer before using for the first time.
Fill the oil reservoir with approx. 1 gallon of water and add some dish­washing liquid.
Turn the control knob clockwise to 265° F (130°C) and bring the water to a boil. Once it has started to boil, turn the control knob back to ”0“.
Drain the water using the drain valve into a heat resistant con- tainer.
Remember to close the drain valve.
Rinse out the oil reservoir with hot water.
Raise the heating element and dry the reservoir with a clean cloth.
To fry, remove the lid and fill the oil reservoir to the mark with about 3/4 gal­lon of clean vegetable or frying oil.
The reservoir will hold a maximum of 1 gallon of oil.
If fat or lard is used: Cut it into small pieces first.
When re-using solidified fat, poke a few holes in it as far down as the element.
Melt the fat at a temperature of 212°F (100°C).
When all the fat has melted, set the Fryer to the desired cooking tem­perature.
Never turn on the Fryer without oil or fat in the reservoir, or with the lid closed.

Frying

Turning on the Fryer
The control knob should be rotated clockwise to turn on the Fryer, and counter clockwise to turn it off. Do not force the knob or it may break.
Frying
Check the oil level
Check the oil level before adding food. The correct oil level is between the two marks, located on the back of the reser­voir.
Turn the control knob to the desired temperature.
The white indicator lamp = illuminates to show that the Fryer is in operation.
The yellow indicator lamp = illuminates when the Fryer heating ele­ments are on.
The yellow indicator lamp goes out . . . when the selected temperature has
been reached. When the temperature drops below that
which was selected, the elements and indicator lamp will turn again.
This process is repeated until the Fryer is turned off.
Correct procedure
Before frying, wipe any moisture off of the food.
The higher the water content of the food, the greater the danger of the oil foaming over.
Set the desired temperature (see chart on page 10).
When the yellow lamp goes out, lower the basket containing the food into the oil.
If the the oil foams excessively, briefly remove the food from the Fryer.
Never salt food over hot oil.

Frying
After frying
When the food is ready:
remove the basket and shake it lightly to remove excess oil.
In order to drain the food, the frying basket can be suspended from the bracket support of the heating ele­ment hinge.
Turn the control knob back to ”0“.
The indicator lamp will go out.
Replace the lid after the oil or fat has cooled.
The frying basket has a handle which can be folded away when not in use:
Press the sides of the handle together and fold it into the basket. The handle can be removed when cleaning the frying basket.
Draining the oil
Frying oil can normally be used 6-10 times. Between each use, the oil should be poured through a strainer lined with a paper towel. Oil containing impurities may ignite.
There is a drain valve at the base of the reservoir for draining the oil.
Before draining solid fat, turn the se­lector to the highest temperature to liquify the fat. Do not allow the fat to get too hot.
Be careful not to burn yourself with the hot oil or fat. Let hot oil cool be­fore draining.
Place a heat resistant container under the drain valve.
Open the valve by turning the lever 90° to the right.
10
To close the valve, turn the lever as far as possible to the left.

Installation instructions

Installation instructions
This appliance is classified as ”Y“ class for heat protection. There may be a wall at the rear and a wall or tall cabinet at one side. On the other side, however, no cabinet or wall must stand higher than the appliance.
There must be a minimum distance of 9-7/8" (250 mm) between the ap­pliance and adjacent cabinetry, be­cause of the heat radiated from the elements. Make certain that the drain tap is ac­cessible once the appliance is in­stalled so that the oil can be safely drained.
Prepare the countertop cut-out as il­lustrated. Dimension ”B“ will vary depending on how many combisets are in­stalled. The following chart gives Dimension ”B“ for a variety of 2 zone (ie KM 89-2) and 4 zone (ie KM 93-2) combinations.
