Before First Use
Fig. A
Become familiar with the various
parts of the deep fryer (Fig. A) and
read the instructions carefully.
Frying basket
Cleaning before first use
Wipe the fryer cover and cooltouch base with a damp cloth.
Never immerse the fryer base
in water or other liquid. Never
wash the cover parts or fryer
base in a dishwasher.
Open the deep fryer cover by
pushing the cover release button
on the front of the fryer. Remove
the frying basket, basket handle,
drip cup, magnetic cord assembly,
charcoal filter, and any packaging material from the fryer. Then
lift the removable pot out of the fryer base.
Wash both the basket and the removable pot in warm, soapy
water; rinse and dry thoroughly. Washing the removable pot in
a dishwasher is not recommended.
NOTICE: If you choose to wash the removable pot in a dishwasher, the exterior of the removable pot will likely discolor
due to the caustic nature of the dishwasher detergent.
Insert the drip cup into the back of the unit with the
tab side out (Fig. B).

Positioning removable pot in fryer base
After cleaning, place the removable pot back in the
fryer base. The terminal pins on the bottom of the
removable pot fit in the receptacle inside the fryer
base (Fig. C).
The spring-loaded thermostat makes it easy to place
the pot in base. Instead of a snap fit which requires
precise positioning, the fryer’s pot floats in the base.
Simply position the pot so the ▼ on the front of the pot
aligns with the front seam of the base (Fig. D). Then
close the cover. If the cover closes, the pot is in the
correct position.
Installing or replacing removable filter
The charcoal filter, which is located in the cover of the
deep fryer, will help absorb unpleasant odors. For the
deep fryer to effectively absorb these odors, always use
the fryer with the filter in the cover.
