SAFETY FEATURES
The Waring Pro ® Professional Deep Fryer is equipped with the
following features to ensure safety:
•
Safety Interlock – The control panel/heating element
must be properly seated or deep fryer will not operate.
• Breakaway Cord – The cord is designed to quickly
disconnect from the appliance when a pulling force
is applied.
• Thermostat Overload Protection – Your Waring Pro ®
Professional Deep Fryer is equipped with a thermostat
overload protection. If the unit heats up beyond the
recommended temperature level, the deep fryer will
automatically turn off. To reset, unplug the unit from the
wall outlet and allow it to cool down. Remove the control
panel and heating element from the unit.
CAUTION: Heating element is
extremely hot. Allow it to cool
thoroughly before removing it.
You will find a reset button on the
front of the control panel below
controls. Using a toothpick or
another long, thin object, push
the reset button and properly
place the control panel back
into position.
NOTE: The unit will not work if the control panel is not properly
mounted. Plug the unit back in, turn on and continue use. If
the unit still does not operate, repeat the steps above or call a
Waring Certified Customer Service Center for assistance.
HINTS
• When cooking foods dipped in fresh batter, first lower
basket. Using tongs, add food directly to oil. Use basket
to lift out food when finished cooking.
• Do not exceed the MAX fill line in the basket. This helps
maintain temperature of oil for better cooking results.
• Sort or cut food into pieces of uniform size. All the
food will then be cooked in the same amount of time.
To reduce splattering, remove excess moisture or ice
from food.
• Store oil in oil container for a limited time. When oil
has cooled to room temperature, pour into a suitable
container with lid and refrigerate.
• For best results, change oil in deep fryer after a
maximum of ten uses.
• It is important to follow the temperature recommendation
for every recipe. If the temperature is too low, the fried
food absorbs oil. If the temperature is too high, a crust
quickly forms on the outside while the inside remains
uncooked.
• For best results, drop freshly sliced food into basket one
piece at a time.
FRYING FROZEN FOODS
• Due to their extremely low temperature, frozen foods
inevitably lower the temperature of the oil. For best
results, do not overload the basket with frozen foods.
• Follow the instructions on the frozen food package for
cooking time and temperature.
• Frozen foods are frequently covered with a coating of ice
crystals, which should be removed before frying. Lower
the basket very slowly into the oil in order to ensure that
oil does not boil over.
FILTERING AND CHANGING THE OIL
• Make sure the Waring Pro ® Professional Deep Fryer is
unplugged and the oil has cooled before cleaning or
storing.
• The oil does not need to be changed after each use. In
general, the oil will be tainted rather quickly when frying
food containing a lot of protein (such as poultry, meat
or fish). When oil is mainly used to fry potatoes and it
is filtered after each use, it can be used 8 to 10 times.
However, do not use the oil for longer than 6 months.
• WARNING: Always remove the plug from wall socket
before cleaning. Allow the Waring Pro ® Professional Deep
Fryer and the oil to cool completely (approximately 2
hours) before cleaning. Never immerse the control panel,
cord or plug in water or any other liquid.
