OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

MAX

Fig. 1

Warning:

In order to avoid injury or

burns, never touch any metal parts on

the deep fryer because they may be hot.

Filling the Frying Basket

• Do not fill the frying basket when it is

immersed in the hot oil.

• Place the food in the frying basket.

Do not drop the food into the hot

cooking oil. Do not overfill it and

never exceed the “MAX” line on the

frying basket. For optimum results

and shorter frying time, fry smaller

quantities.

• The frying basket has a “MAX” line

on it. Do not fill the basket with food

over this line.

Warning:

When frying frozen foods,

remove the frying basket from the deep

fryer before filling because oil will spatter

and cause burns.

Caution:

When frying frozen foods such

as french fries, you should not exceed

1.25 Lb. (564 gr.) or less. Clean off any

ice from frozen food prior to frying.

Failure to do so may cause fryer to

overflow when food is placed in oil.

Caution:

Never plug in the control panel

when it is not assembled to the fryer

body. Do not immerse the control panel,

power cord or plug in water or any other

liquid.

Frying Food

• Always use the frying basket to fry food.

• Always close the lid cover during frying.

• When the oil is pre-heated, ready

indicator light will come on indicating

that the desired temperature is reached.

• Slowly lower the frying basket into the

hot oil. Lowering the frying basket too

quickly can result in the oil overflowing

and splashing.

• Replace the lid carefully.

• It is normal for steam to escape through

the sides of the lid while frying.

• Avoid standing too close to the deep

fryer while it is working.

Warning:

When opening the lid cover

after frying, lift the lid slightly, then wait to

allow steam to escape before removing

the lid completely. Keep face away from

unit to avoid burns caused by escaping

steam.

• Press the power button to turn the

power off.

• Unplug the power cord from the wall

outlet.

• Lift up the lid cover slowly and wait to

allow steam to escape before

removing the lid cover completely.

• Lift up the frying basket by the

handle. Place it on the oil container

and allow the food to drain for a

minute.

• Once the oil has drained from the

frying basket, the basket may be

lifted off and the food served.

Warning:

Always let the deep fryer cool

completely (approximately 2 hours)

before cleaning or storing. Never carry

or move the deep fryer with hot oil inside.

At the End of Cooking

• Do not mix different oils or new and

old oil together.

• Replace oil regularly. In general, oil

will be tainted fast when frying food

containing a lot of protein, (such as

poultry, meat and fish). When oil is

used mainly to fry potatoes and is

filtered after each use, it can be used

up to 8 to 10 times, but do not use the

same oil for more than 6 months.

• Always replace all oil as soon as it

starts foaming when heated or when

color becomes dark or when it has a

rancid smell or taste or becomes

syrupy.

• Make sure that the food to be fried is

dry.

• Remove loose ice from frozen food

before frying.

• To cook evenly, pieces should be the

same size and thickness.

• Thicker pieces will take longer to cook.

Frying Tips

Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.

Prior to First Use, Clean the Unit

Thoroughly

• All components with the exception of the

electrical parts, can be washed in warm

soap water. Dry thoroughly before use.

• Use basket handle to remove the frying

basket. Always make sure the basket

handle is securely attached to the

basket. Attach the handle to the frying

basket, insert the metal part of the

handle inside the metal bracket on the

frying basket. (Fig. 1)

• Lift the control panel with heating

element out of its slots by pushing it up

from the bottom with one hand while

holding the body of the deep fryer with

your the other hand.

• Remove the oil container.

• Clean the oil container and the frying

basket with hot water, dishwashing liquid

or other non-poisonous detergent and

non-abrasive sponge.

Warning:

Never immerse the control

panel in water or any other liquids.

Warning:

All components must be

completely dried before filling with oil or

using. Special care must be taken to

ensure the washable oil filter in the lid is

completely dry, otherwise the filter will not

function properly and may lead to steam

being trapped within the fryer during use.

Warning:

Never exceed "MAX" line

when filling the basket with food.

Using for the First Time
Warning:

Never plug in the control panel

when it is not installed in the fryer body

with heating element in the oil container.

boil water.

Warning:

Always let the fryer cool

completely for 2 hours before taking it apart

for cleaning. Never carry or move the

deep fryer with hot oil inside. Before

cleaning, always make sure the plug is not

in the wall socket.

• Use blended vegetable oil, pure corn oil

or canola (rapeseed) oil. Do not use

olive oil, margarine, lard or drippings.

• The oil level must always be maintained

between the minimum and the

maximum levels marked inside the oil

container. Check the oil level before

each use. For best results, Do NOT

exceed “MAX” level for cooking oil.

(Fig. 2)

• Never mix different oils and fats together.

Do not mix old and new oil.
