OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CLEAN KETTLE BEFORE USING
Take out baskets, push down and hold element catch,
located on left side of element housing. Lift up on
element lift handle until elements lock in a vertical
position, and remove kettle. The kettle can be cleaned
in a sink like any other pot or container.
ADDING FAT
Replace kettle and swing the element down by holding
element lift handle and pushing release catch down
and holding it there. Lower element. Fryer is now
ready for use. Add fat. A fat level line on the rear of
the kettle will guide you in determining the minimum
cold fat level. A higher fat level can be used when frying
bulky foods, such as chicken or fish cakes. The fat level
should be chosen carefully so that the foaming action
of the fat does not spill out of the kettle. If solid
shortening is used, pack carefully around the elements.
