OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
• Make sure the Deep Fryer is unplugged
and the oil has cooled (approximately 2
hours) before attempting to clean or
store the Deep Fryer.
• The oil does not need to be changed
after each use. We do not recommend
storing and reusing oil that was used for
frying high protein foods such as
poultry, fish or other meats. When oil is
mainly used to fry potatoes and is
filtered after each use, it can be used 8
to 10 times. However, do not use the
same oil for longer than 6 months.
• To filter the oil, first make sure the oil
has cooled and then empty the oil
from the Oil Container into a storage
container or bottle. (Fig. 6) Wash and
dry the Oil Container and basket. To
reuse, refill the Oil Container with
the oil, pouring the oil through a wire
strainer or paper filter. (Fig. 7)

Detachable Power Cord
Your Deep Fryer has been specifically
designed with your safety in mind. This
deep fryer has ia unique detachable power
supply cord. This power supply cord cord
is designed to “Break Away” from the fryer
body in the event that the supply cord is
inadvertently pulled. This is intended to
prevent the tipping of the appliance and
hazardous spillage of hot oil.
The female receptacle portion of the power
supply cord is permanently attached to the
rear of the the control panel.
To connect the male power cord plug to
the female receptacle on the appliance,
orient the male plug so that it mates with
the female receptacle. The male plug can
only be inserted one way. If the male plug
will not go into the receptacle on the
appliance, rotate the male plug 180°.
IMPORTANT: Should the male plug
become detached from the appliance
during use, it is important to:
1. Unplug the power cord from the wall
outlet.
2. Turn off the appliance
at the control panel.
3. Re-attach the power
cord to the appliance.
4. Re-connect to power
outlet.
5. Turn the appliance
back on.
• Allow the deep fryer to cool
completely.
• Remove the control panel from the
unit.
• Push the thermostat reset button
located on the back of the control
panel with the back of a ball point
pen. (Fig. 8) The unit will beep to
indicate that it has re-set.
If for some reason the deep fryer stops
heating, the reason might be that the
safety reset switch has disconnected. To
reconnect the deep fryer, follow the
instructions below:
