Deep Fryer

IMPORTANT! Use only standard brand of vegetable shortening or cooking oil when using the deep fryer function. Frying food in butter, margarine, olive oil or animal fat is not recommended due to lower smoking temperatures.

CAUTION: NEVER LEAVE THE UNIT UNATTENDED DURING USE.

Pour oil into the cooking pot up to the MAX line. Never go over the MAX mark as this may allow the oil overflow when food is added.
Turn the function dial to DEEP FRYER, adjust the cooking time and temperature if necessary, then press START/STOP button to start preheating.

IMPORTANT! BEFORE FRYING, REMOVE EXCESS MOISTURE FROM FOOD BY BLOTTING WITH KITCHEN PAPER OR SIMILAR. MOIST FOODS CAUSE EXCESS FOAMING AND OIL SPATTER.

CAUTION: TO AVOID SCALDING FROM HOT OIL, DO NOT ADD WET OR FROZEN FOOD INTO COOKING OIL. EVEN SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER OR MOISTURE TRAPPED IN FROZEN FOOD MAY CAUSE THE OIL TO SPATTER.

Use caution when deep frying flour tortillas. Flour tortillas contain air bubbles. During deep frying, oil can then become trapped within these bubbles and, if not properly drained these bubbles can burst and cause burns. Therefore, after deep frying tortillas, carefully raise them out of the cooking oil and allow oil to drain from the tortillas for at least 30 seconds.

4. When frying temperature is reached the timer will begin counting down the cooking time.5. Carefully lift lid away from you and lower the frying basket into the oil.6.
