Important:

• Read the Instructions for Use and look at the Illustrations before

you start using the appliance.

• Clean the fryer parts as described in the "Cleaning" section.

Dry all parts thoroughly.

• Make sure all parts are completely dry before you fill the fryer with

oil or liquid fat.

the lowest setting“

”(turn it completely to the left).Remove the

plug from the electrical outlet and let the oil or fat cool down.

Do not move the fryer until it has cooled down sufficiently.

• Never overfill the food basket since too much food can cause the

temperature of the oil to decrease below optimal temperature for

frying and result in foods that are not as light and crispy as they

could be.Basket should only be 1/2 full of food at the most for

optimal results.
