minutes) and push the reset button located on the bottom of the unit.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
This Deep Fryer is equipped with a unique Power Cord System, which
includes a detachable magnetic cord designed to separate from the unit
when certain amounts of force are applied. (See details on pg. 5 for
instructions on proper usage of the magnetic cord.)
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from
becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this product.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk
of electric shock, this plug is intended to t into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug
does not t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not
t, contact a qualied electrician. Do not attempt to modify
the plug in any way. If the plug ts loosely into the AC
outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
CAUTION: Overtighening can result in stripping of screws or
cracking of feet.

TIPS FOR DEEP FRYING
• Fill the unit between the maximum and minimum capacity lines only.
• To achieve quality results deep frying food needs to be surrounded by oil.
Too much food causes the oil temperature to drop, resulting in “soggy”
food.
• Be sure that all ice crystals are removed from the food and food is
completely dry. Excessive water and ice can cause the oil to splatter and/or
overflow.
• Coated foods (bread crumbs, batters, etc.) are best for deep frying. The
coating acts as a protective layer keeping food moist on the inside and
crisp on the outside.
• Before deep frying, remove ice crystals from food and blot dry with a
towel. Excessive water and ice can cause the oil to splatter and/or
overflow.
• For best results, defrost frozen foods for 20 minutes to create a crispier
final product.
• Fry foods at the correct temperature for best results. This will prevent
burning and give you even colored, crispy food.
• Prepackaged frozen cooked chicken may cook faster then uncooked food.
PREPARING YOUR FRYER FOR USE
Prior to first use, remove all packaging materials from the exterior and interior of
the fryer. Make sure fryer is unplugged and wipe the interior and exterior
surfaces
with a damp soapy cloth. Towel dry thoroughly. See CARE AND CLEANING.
CAUTION: Do not immerse fryer, cord, or plug in water.
HOW TO USE YOUR DEEP FRYER
NOTE: Never turn on the fryer with an empty OIL RESERVOIR. Always use your
fryer on a flat, heat resistant surface.
1. Attach magnetic end of cord assembly directly to the
fryer (See Figure 1). This should be done prior to
plugging the cord into the wall outlet. The
magnetic end of the cord is designed to only go on
Figure 1
one way. Be sure the side stating "THIS SIDE UP" is
facing up.
2. Unlock LID by depressing OPEN LID BUTTON.

3. Pour cooking oil into Oil Reservoir until it reaches between the "MIN"
and "MAX" marks on the inside of the reservoir. DO NOT OVER OR
UNDER FILL.
4. Make sure that fryer is off and insert plug into 120 volt AC outlet.
5. Turn fryer to desired temperature position. The Power Indicator will
illuminate. The Ready Indicator will illuminate when the oil has reached
the preset temperature.
6. Using your slotted spoon, place food inside the fryer (Do not over stack
food). Close Lid until it snaps into place. Overloading will lower the oil
temperature, causing food to absorb too much oil and cook improperly.
7. For cooking times, see chart on page 8, or use the recommended times in
your recipe.
8. As your food fries, open lid and stir slowly with slotted spoon or other
heat-resistant utensil to prevent foods from sticking together.
9. Once the food reaches desired brownness, using your spoon, lift and drain.
Set the drained food on several layers of paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Season if desired. To fry more servings, repeat steps 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.
WARNING: DO NOT USE THE DETACHABLE MAGNETIC CORD SYSTEM TO
DISCONNECT THE FRYER. ALWAYS DISCONNECT PLUG FROM
WALL OUTLET FIRST TO DISCONNECT FRYER.
Use only Model JB-168 magnetic cord set with this product. The use of any other
magnetic cord set may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.
CAUTION: The detachable magnetic cord is only for accidental disconnection
and not to be removed during normal operation. If the cord becomes
disconnected, the user should immediately unplug the cord set from
the wall outlet, then reconnect the magnetic cord to the deep fryer
and then to the wall outlet.

CARE AND CLEANING
WARNING: ALWAYS TURN CONTROL TO “OFF” THEN DISCONNECT PLUG
FROM WALL OUTLET BEFORE DISCONNECTING MAGNETIC CORD.
CAUTION:
• Do not immerse cord sets in water or any liquid.
• Do not attempt to defeat the detachable magnetic cord system by trying
to permanently attach cord set to product.
• Do not stick pins or other sharp objects in holes on magnetic cord set.
• Do not use any type of steel wool to clean magnetic contacts.
1. Turn unit OFF.
2. Unplug from outlet and allow unit to cool completely.
3. Remove magnetic cord from the fryer socket.
4. When unit has cooled, empty cooking oil. If you plan to reuse the oil, store
fryer with lid closed. (See TIPS FOR OIL USE AND STORAGE on page 10.)
5. When changing the oil, take the opportunity to clean the inside of the
fryer. Remove LID, pour out oil and discard properly; wipe the inside with
paper towels to absorb excess grease. Wash interior of fryer with hot soapy
water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use scouring pads or abrasive
kitchen cleaners.
CAUTION: Never immerse the fryer in water, or wash in running water.
NOTE: A REMOVABLE CONDENSATION TRAY is located on the back of the fryer
under the lid. The CONDENSATION TRAY will collect any water that has condensed
on the inside of the LID when the LID is opened after frying. Remember to
empty and clean the CONDENSATION TRAY after each use. To remove
condensation tray, remove lid and lift out condensation tray. To clean simply
rinse with warm water.
TO REMOVE AND REPLACE LID
• To remove lid, depress OPEN LID BUTTON and lift LID
to a vertical position. Remove LID by pulling firmly
upwards (See Figure 2). Reverse the sequence to
secure lid back into position. Be sure to push down
firmly on lid from the vertical position to secure back
in place.

REPLACING AND CLEANING FILTERS
1. Open the FILTER COVER.
2. WHITE GREASE FILTER may be washed in hot soapy water. Allow to air dry.
3. Clean the inside of the cover with a damp soapy sponge. Rinse and
dry thoroughly.
4. Insert clean GREASE FILTER on the bottom of LID, followed by CHARCOAL
ODOR FILTER, then replace FILTER COVER.
NOTE: For replacement charcoal odor or grease filters, order through our website
at www.oster.com.
FRYING TIME AND TEMPERATURE
The frying times in this chart are a guide and should be adjusted to suit the
different quantities or thickness of food and to suit your own taste.
FOOD TEMP. SETTING TIME (MINUTES)
CHICKEN STRIPS 375° F 5 to 8
CHICKEN PIECES, BONE-IN 360° F 18 to 20
FISH, BATTERED, FRESH 320° F - 340° F 8 to 12
FRENCH FRIES, FROZEN 375° F 5 to 8
FRITTERS 375° F 2 to 4
ONION RINGS 375° F 4 to 5
SHRIMP, BREADED 375° F 4 to 5
TIPS FOR OIL USE AND STORAGE
NOTE: Do not use seasoned or flavored oil such as walnut, olive oil, lard or
drippings because they have a low smoke point. Use blended vegetable oil, pure
corn oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil or grapeseed (canola oil). These oils are safe
for using in your deep fryer as they have a high smoke point. Peanut oil is not
recommended because it greatly impacts the flavor.
• Oils should never be mixed when deep frying.
• High heat, water and burnt food particles break down the oil’s smoke point.
• Replace oil if you notice:
- Excessive smoking at normal temperatures
- Strong oil discoloration
- A rancid smell
- Excessive foaming around the frying food
• Oil darkens with use because the oil and food molecules burn when
subjected to high/prolonged heat. The more you use an oil, the more slowly
it will pour. Its viscosity changes because of changes to the oil’s molecular
structure. When smoke appears on the oils’ surface before the temperature
reaches 375° F, your oil will no longer deep-fry effectively.
• When frying fish or chicken, use the oil only once.
• Also, use the oil only once when frying fresh or frozen chicken. A great deal
of moisture is released when frying the chicken, this breaks down the oil
easily and can cause the oil to foam and lower the smoke point.
• Filtering the oil with a cooking oil filter or fine-mesh strainer can help keep
it fresher. Although storing oil in a refrigerator may extend the life of the oil,
this should never be done. The process of chilling oil then bringing the oil to
room temperature causes excessive splattering during the heat up process.
• Store the covered oil in a cool dark place, for up to three months. Also check
the oil before using for color, smell or excessive foaming. Discard the oil if it
shows any of these qualities.
