Before First Use

Become familiar with the various parts

of the deep fryer (Fig.A) and read the

instructions carefully.

Cleaning before rst use...

Wipethefryercoverandcool-touchfryer

base with a damp cloth. Never immerse

the fryer base in water or other liquid.

Never wash the cover parts or fryer base

in a dishwasher.

Open the deep fryer cover by pushing the

cover release button on the front of the fryer.

Remove the frying basket, basket handle,

charcoalairlter,andanypackagingmate-

rial from the deep fryer. Then lift the remov-

able pot out of the fryer base. Wash both

the basket and removable pot in hot, soapy

water; rinse and dry thoroughly. Washing

the removable pot in a dishwasher is not

recommended. If you choose to wash the

removable pot in a dishwasher, the exterior

of the removable pot will likely discolor

due to the caustic nature of the dishwasher

detergent.

Positioning removable pot in fryer

base...

After cleaning, place the removable pot

back in the fryer base. The terminal pins

on the bottom of the removable pot t

in the receptacle inside the fryer base

(Fig.B).Foreasiestalignment,position

the pot in the base so the  on the front

of the pot aligns with the front seam of

theunit(Fig.C).Thentiltthepotforward

slightly and push pot down into fryer base.

If the fryer cover closes, you will know the

removable pot is positioned correctly.

Themeshcharcoallter,whichislocatedinthecoverofthedeepfryer,willhelp

absorb unpleasant odors. For the deep fryer to effectively absorb these odors, always

usethefryerwiththelterinthecover.
