out of the oil to drain, then turn the
Temperature Control Dial to the ‘OFF’
position. Switch the power off at the
power outlet and remove the power plug.
CAUTION: The deep fryer will
generate a lot of heat and steam
during and after the cooking process.

HANDY HINTS
We do not recommend fats that
deteriorate quickly such as lard or
dripping. Deep frying in butter or
margarine is also not recommended
because of the low smoke-point
temperatures.
Allow the deep fryer to fully cool before
emptying the oil or cleaning the unit.
Food should be crisp when deep fried. If
results are soggy, it’s because the oil isn’t
hot enough.This can be attributed to one
or more of the following:
WARNING:This product must
be filled with oil to the correct
marked level.The product will be
severely damaged if heated without
oil in the bowl.
TIP: Ensure the oil has reached the selected
temperature before lowering foods into the oil. Food
cooked in oil that has not reached the correct
temperature will absorb more oil and become
soggy.
• Not enough preheating time.
• Temperature setting is too low.
• Oil can be re-used several times before
it starts to break down (smoke point
decreases, ie; the oil will burn at a lower
temperature, fried food will be less
crisp). Filter the cooled oil through a fine
sieve then store in an airtight container
in a dark place.As oil will absorb food
flavours, it’s a good idea to label the
container with the type of food the oil
TIP: Food should be of uniform size when placed in
the basket to ensure even cooking.Wet foods
should be patted dry to decrease the amount of
water coming into contact with the oil.
Solid oil products, such as butter,
• Too much food in the basket (do not fill
more than two thirds full).
margarine or animal fats of any kind
should not be used in the deep fryer as
they increase the chance of fire hazard.
• Do not use solid frying oil, only use
liquid oils.
Water and oil do not mix – never add any
water or other liquid to hot oil. Even small
amounts of water will cause the oil to splatter.
• Use a good quality liquid oil. For best
results we recommend the oils listed.

was used for. For example, you wouldn’t
deep fry a dessert in oil previously used
for cooking fish.A fine sieve can be a
new chux cloth, paper coffee filter or
clean cotton material.
The exterior of the body and lid can be
cleaned with a slightly dampened cloth
and mild washing up liquid.Window
cleaner may also be used. Do not use any
abrasive cleaners as they may scratch the
