SAFETY FEATURES
The Waring ® Commercial Deep Fryer is equipped with the
following features to ensure safety:
• Thermostat Overload Protection – Your Waring
®
Commercial Deep Fryer is equipped with 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
baskets. Using tongs, add food directly to oil. Use
baskets to lift out food when finished cooking.
• Do not exceed the MAX fill line in the baskets. This helps
maintain temperature of oil for better cooking results.
• Sort or cut food into uniform pieces. All the food will then
be cooked in the same amount of time. To reduce
splattering, remove excess moisture or ice from food.
• Leave 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 baskets
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 baskets 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 baskets very slowly into the oil in order to ensure that
oil does not boil over.
FILTERING AND CHANGING THE OIL
• Make sure the Waring ® Commercial 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 unplug from wall socket before
cleaning. Allow the Waring ® Commercial 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.
