Congratulations on the purchase of
your new GE

Deep Fryer. This Deep

Fryer is equipped with a Break-away
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 the
proper usage of the Break-away
magnetic cord.)
This appliance has a polarized plug
(one blade is wider than the other).
To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this plug will fit in a polarized outlet
only one way. If the plug does not fit

fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to modify
the plug in any way. If the plug fits
loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC
outlet feels warm, do not use that outlet.
NOTE: This cord meets revised Underwriter’s
Laboratories (UL) Standard 1083 requirements
effective May 30, 2001.
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce
the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. WARNING: Do not use
an extension cord.
No user-serviceable parts inside Control Panel
Assembly. Do not attempt to service this product.
