CLEAN KETTLE BEFORE USING

Take out the baskets, push down and hold the element catch located on the left side of element housing. Lift up on the element lift handle until the elements lock in a vertical position, then remove the kettle. The kettle can be cleaned in a sink like any other pot or container.

ADDING FAT

Replace the kettle and swing the element down by holding the element lift handle and pushing the release catch down and holding it there. Lower the element. The 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 ish 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.
