Frying Food
Frying Tips
• Do not mix different oils or new and
old oil together.
Filtering & Changing The Oil
• Always use the frying baskets to fry food.
• Always close the lid cover during frying.
• When the oil is pre-heated, ready
indicator light will come on it indicating
that the desired temperature is reached.
• Slowly lower the frying basket into the
hot oil. Lowering the frying basket too
quickly can result in the oil overflowing
and splashing.
• Make sure the deep fryer is unplugged
and the oil has cooled before cleaning
or storing the deep fryer.
Warning: In order to avoid injury or
burns, never touch any metal parts on the
deep fryer because they may be hot.
• Replace oil regularly. In general, oil
will be tainted fast when frying food
containing a lot of protein, (such as
poultry, meat and fish). When oil is
used mainly to fry potatoes and is
filtered after each use, it can be used
up to 8 to 10 times, but do not use
the same oil for more than 6 months.
• Always replace all oil as soon as it
starts foaming when heated or when
color becomes dark or when it has a
rancid smell or taste or becomes
syrupy.
• Make sure that the food to be fried is
dry.
• Remove loose ice from frozen food
before frying. Rinse and pat dry.
• To cook evenly, pieces should be the
same size and thickness.
• 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 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 another container
or bottle. Fig. 7
• Pre-heating the oil will take up to 15
minutes depending on the temperature
selected.
• The temperature indicator light will
come on when the temperature is set
and the deep fryer is “on” showing that
the heating element is in operation.
This light goes off when the set
temperature is reached. (Fig. 6) The
temperature light may go on and off
several times during frying. This
indicates that the temperature is being
thermostatically maintained.
• Replace the lid carefully.
• It is normal for steam to escape through
the sides of the lid while frying.
• Avoid standing too close to the deep
fryer while it is working.
Warning: When opening the lid cover
after frying, lift up the lid slightly, then wait
to allow steam to escape before opening
the lid completely. Keep face away from
unit to avoid burns caused by escaping
steam.
Wash and dry the oil container and
basket. Refill the oil container with the
oil, pouring the oil through a wire
strainer or paper filter. Fig. 8

Warning: When you have finished frying,
always turn the temperature setting dial to
lowest position, turn off power switch and
unplug the deep fryer from wall outlet. To
avoid injury or burns, do not touch any
metal surfaces as they are hot.
Important: When frying frozen food
such as French Fries in the large
frying basket, you should not exceed
1.25 lb. (568 gr.). For best results,
limit quantity to 1 Lb. (454 gr.) or
less.

• Once the oil has drained from the
frying basket, the basket may be lifted
off and the food served.
• Do not fill the frying basket when it is
immersed in oil.
• Place the food in the frying basket. Do
not overfill it and never exceed the
maximum quantities. For optimum
results and shorter frying time, basket
should be only 1/2 full.
• The large basket has approximately
1.5 lb. food capacity. It will hold 3-4
average size pieces of chicken. The
small baskets should be filled ONLY till
the MAX line on the fryer basket.
• Do not fill the baskets higher than the
MAX line on the baskets with frozen
food.
Temperature Settings
The following cooking times reflect only the approximate time needed to fry one
basket 1/2 full. The exact time may be different depending on actual quantity,
personal cooking preferences, size and thickness of pieces, etc...
In general, use lower settings for delicate foods (vegetables, fish) and higher settings
for frozen foods, French Fries and Chicken.

French Fries, you should not exceed
1.25 Lb. (564 gr.) in the large basket. For best
crispy results limit quantity to 1 Lb. (454 gr.).
Clean off any ice from frozen food prior to
frying. Failure to do so may cause fryer to
overflow when food is placed in oil.
Warning: Always let the deep fryer
cool completely (approximately 2 hours)
before cleaning or storing. Never carry or
move the deep fryer with hot oil inside.
