All Manuals Search And Download.   SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS   This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.   TM   This Deep Fryer is equipped with Rival’s exclusive SureRELEASE Power   Cord System, which includes a detachable magnetic cord designed to   separate from the unit when certain amounts of force are applied. (See   TM   details on pg.6 for instructions on proper usage of the SureRELEASE   magnetic cord.)   A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from   becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. WARNING: Do   not use an extension cord.   No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this product.   POLARIZED PLUG   This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider   than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock,   this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet   only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the   outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact   a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If   the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do   not use that outlet.   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

Too much food causes the oil temperature to drop, resulting   in “soggy” food.   • • • Be sure that all ice crystals are removed from the food and food is   completely dry. Excessive water and ice can cause the oil to splatter   and/or overflow.   Coated foods (bread crumbs, batters, etc.) are best for deep frying.   The coating acts as a protective layer keeping food moist on the   inside and crisp on the outside.   Before deep frying, remove ice crystals from food and blot dry with   a towel. Excessive water and ice can cause the oil to splatter and/or   overflow.   • • • For best results, defrost frozen foods for 20 minutes to create a crispi-   er final product.   Fry foods at the correct temperature for best results. This will prevent   burning and give you even colored, crispy food.   Prepackaged frozen cooked chicken may cook faster then uncooked food.   HOW TO USE YOUR DEEP FRYER   NOTE: Never turn on the fryer with an empty OIL RESERVOIR. Always use   your fryer on a flat, heat resistant surface.   Figure 1   1. Attach magnetic end of SureRELEASETM cord assem-   bly directly to the fryer (See Figure 1). This should   be done prior to plugging the cord into the   wall outlet. The magnetic end of the cord is   designed to only go on one way. Be sure the side   stating "THIS SIDE UP" is facing up.   2. Unlock LID by depressing OPEN LID BUTTON.   3. Pour cooking oil into Oil Reservoir until it reaches between the "MIN"   and "MAX" marks on the inside of the reservoir. DO NOT OVER OR   UNDER FILL.   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   -5-   HOW TO USE YOUR DEEP FRYER (CONTINUED)   4. Make sure that fryer is off and insert plug into 120 volt AC outlet.   5. Turn fryer to desired temperature position. The Power Indicator will   illuminate. The Ready Indicator will illuminate when the oil has   reached the preset temperature.   6. Using your slotted spoon, place food inside the fryer (Do not over   stack food). Close Lid until it snaps into place. Overloading will lower   the oil temperature, causing food to absorb too much oil and cook   improperly.   7. For cooking times, see chart on page 8, or use the recommended   times in your recipe.   8. As your food fries, open lid and stir slowly with slotted spoon or other   heat-resistant utensil to prevent foods from sticking together.   9. Once the food reaches desired brownness, using your spoon, lift and   drain. Set the drained food on several layers of paper towels to   absorb excess oil. Season if desired. To fry more servings, repeat steps   5, 6, 7, 8 and 9.   WARNING: DO NOT USE THE SureRELEASETM POWER CORD SYSTEM   TO DISCONNECT THE FRYER. ALWAYS DISCONNECT PLUG FROM   WALL OUTLET FIRST TO DISCONNECT FRYER.   Use only Model PL1215 magnetic cord set with this product. The use of   any other magnetic cord set may cause fire, electric shock, or injury.   CAUTION: The SureRELEASETM power cord is only for accidental discon-   nection and not to be removed during normal operation. If the cord   becomes disconnected, the user should immediately unplug the cord   set from the wall outlet, then reconnect the magnetic cord to the deep   fryer and then to the wall outlet.   Download from Www.Somanuals.com. All Manuals Search And Download.   -6-   CARE AND CLEANING   WARNING: ALWAYS TURN CONTROL TO “OFF” THEN DISCONNECT   PLUG FROM WALL OUTLET BEFORE DISCONNECTING SureRELEASE™ CORD.   CAUTION:   • • Do not immerse cord sets in water or any liquid.   Do not attempt to defeat the detachable magnetic SureRELEASETM cord   system by trying to permanently attach cord set to product.   • • Do not stick pins or other sharp objects in holes on magnetic cord set.   Do not use any type of steel wool to clean magnetic contacts.   1. Turn unit OFF.   2. Unplug from outlet and allow unit to cool completely.   3. Remove SureRELEASETM magnetic cord from the fryer socket.   4. When unit has cooled, empty cooking oil. If you plan to reuse the   oil, store fryer with lid closed. (See TIPS FOR OIL USE AND STORAGE   on page 9.)   5. When changing the oil, take the opportunity to clean the inside of   the fryer. Remove LID, pour out oil and discard properly; wipe the   inside with paper towels to absorb excess grease. Wash interior of   fryer with hot soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use   scouring pads or abrasive kitchen cleaners.   CAUTION: Never immerse the fryer in water, or wash in running water.   NOTE: A REMOVABLE CONDENSATION TRAY is located on the back of the   fryer. The CONDENSATION TRAY will collect any water that has condensed   on the inside of the LID when the LID is opened after frying. Remember to   empty and clean the CONDENSATION TRAY after each   use. To clean simply rinse with warm water.   Figure 2   TO REMOVE AND REPLACE LID   • To remove lid, depress OPEN LID BUTTON and lift LID to   a vertical position. Remove LID by pulling firmly   upwards (See Figure 2). Reverse the sequence to secure   lid back into position. Be sure to push down firmly on   lid from the vertical position to secure back in place.   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.

NOTE: Always   remove LID before emptying the OIL RESERVOIR or cleaning.   CAUTION: Ensure that lid is in place and secure prior to operation of unit.   REPLACING AND CLEANING FILTERS   1. Open the FILTER COVER.   2. WHITE GREASE FILTER may be washed in hot soapy water. Allow to air dry.   3. Clean the inside of the cover with a damp soapy sponge. Rinse and   dry thoroughly.   4. Insert clean GREASE FILTER on the bottom of LID, followed by   CHARCOAL ODOR FILTER, then replace FILTER COVER.   NOTE: For replacement charcoal odor or grease filters, order through   $7.99 plus $6.00 for shipping and handling (CA, NY, MA, MI, MO, TX   add appropriate sales tax) payable to:   Consumer Service   1605 George Dieter #688   El Paso, TX 79936   FRYING TIME AND TEMPERATURE   The frying times in this chart are a guide and should be adjusted to suit   the different quantities or thickness of food and to suit your own taste.   FOOD   TEMP.

All Manuals Search And Download.   -8-   TIPS FOR OIL USE AND STORAGE   NOTE: Do not use seasoned or flavored oil such as walnut, olive oil, lard or   drippings because they have a low smoke point. Use blended vegetable oil,   pure corn oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil or grapeseed (canola oil). These   oils are safe for using in your deep fryer as they have a high smoke   point. Peanut oil is not recommended because it greatly impacts the flavor.   • • Oils should never be mixed when deep frying.   High heat, water and burnt food particles break down the oil’s smoke   point.   • • Replace oil if you notice:   - Excessive smoking at normal temperatures   - Strong oil discoloration   - A rancid smell   - Excessive foaming around the frying food   Oil darkens with use because the oil and food molecules burn when   subjected to high/prolonged heat. The more you use an oil, the   more slowly it will pour. Its viscosity changes because of changes to   the oil’s molecular structure. When smoke appears on the oils’ surface   before the temperature reaches 375° F, your oil will no longer deep-fry   effectively.   • • When frying fish or chicken, use the oil only once.   Also, use the oil only once when frying fresh or frozen chicken. A great   deal of moisture is released when frying the chicken, this breaks down   the oil easily and can cause the oil to foam and lower the smoke point.   • • Filtering the oil with a cooking oil filter or fine-mesh strainer can help   keep it fresher. Although storing oil in a refrigerator may extend the   life of the oil, this should never be done. The process of chilling oil   then bringing the oil to room temperature causes excessive splattering   during the heat up process.   Store the covered oil in a cool dark place, for up to three months.   Also check the oil before using for color, smell or excessive foaming.   Discard the oil if it shows any of these qualities.   Download from Www.Somanuals.com.
