◆ Refried French fries tend to be lighter and crispier in consistency.

◆ Always fry foods in accordance to their required temperature levels, first frying foods

requiring the lowest temperature settings.

◆ Be advised, frying pre cooked meals may require less secondary frying time.

◆ Don't use the fryer lid when frying French fries or other high moisture content foods.

◆ Never combine different oil types for frying.

◆ Fill with enough oil when operating, 2.5 liters being the minimum marker. Oil should

always be present prior to plugging in the device.

◆ Never place water or other liquid sources within the pan.

◆ Replace oil after each 10-15 use interval, or when oil turns brown/ thick in

consistency.

◆ Never use shortening, butter, or margarine. Solid fat can result in pressurized heat

output.

◆ Always use a good brand of cooking oil when deep frying.

◆ Only use metal utensils when frying, since plastic or rubber can ruin or melt. Never

to the ON position. The indicator light will turn red. Once the light alternates to green,

you may rotate the knob to the desired timer marker.

2) While frying, the indicator light will turn to red when the oil temperature drops with the

addition of new foods, and will periodically switch to red when frying temperatures are

met.

*The timer will sound once the desired cooking time is reached and the appliance will

simultaneously shut off once the timer hits the OFF position at the end of a frying cycle.

*In the event that the timer has been preset to the STAY ON setting, the fryer will remain

ON at the set temperature and won't shut off until prompted.

POWER CORD SPECS:

Short cord purpose:

A short power supply cord is included with the device for safety during use, since longer wiring poses risk of trip and fall/ entanglement incidences.

When using your own longer extension cord to power the device, follow all safety precautions to refrain from damage or injury.

Polarized plug:

In the event that you opt to use a polarized plug, with one blade being wider than the other, be sure to follow safety guidelines.

To reduce the risk of electric shock, only insert the plug into a designated polarized outlet in the advisable direction, based on safety guidelines. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

USING YOUR FRYER:

First time use

◆ Remove all packaging materials prior to use.

◆ Removable parts should be rinsed with hot water and dried prior to use.

CAUTION: never immerse power cord or control box/ heating elements of the dryer into

any liquids.

◆ Place on a leveled surface, away from external heat sources or flammables.

◆ Fill with proper oil amounts prior to use. Make sure the fryer remains unplugged prior

to the appliance's complete setup.

◆ You may wipe the the inner chamber of the viewing window with a hint of oil to

prevent condensation during use.

◆ Check the temperature control and timer dials so that they're in the OFF position

before operating.

◆ Plug the power cord into an available outlet.

◆ Select the desired temperature and timer settings using the designated dials. The

indicator light should turn green once the desired temperature setting is reached.

Oil and food application:

◆ To reduce oil splatter, lower the basket slowly into oil. If oil starts to rise within the

tank, lift the fryer basket and allow oil to settle before lowering food slowly into the

oil once again.

◆ Fill the oil to the appropriate capacity, 2.5 liters at the minimum, not exceeding 4

liters in total.

◆ When frying frozen foods, remove ice particles and thaw properly. Make sure foods

are as dry as possible prior to frying and refrain from adding water or ice, since they

may cause high heat splattering.

◆ If reusing oil, strain first to remove settled food particles.

06

◆ Replace oil immediately if:

1-Unpleasant odor is emitted.

2-Excessive smoke emittance occurs during heating.

3-Oil turns dark in color.

4-Oil has been stored for prolonged time periods.

◆ Routinely replace oil after every 10-15 uses.

◆ When frying cycle is complete, turn the temperature and timer dials to the OFF

position and unplug the fryer.

◆ Remove the fryer lid and place the fryer basket only the designated hook to allow

the excess oil to accumulate in the oil tank.

CAUTION: removing the fryer lid results in the release of hot vapor which can cause

severe burns.

Oil tank:

◆ Refrain from storing oil in the tank while the control with element are still assembled.

◆ Allow the oil and cool touch fryer to cool completely prior to attempting to clean or

store oil.

◆ Remove the control with element and set on paper towel atop a cookie sheet. The

element will still contain oil residue at that time.

◆ Carefully lift the oil tank out of the stainless base.

◆ Do not place oil in the refrigerator while still contained in the oil tank with its control

panel in place. Never place the appliance in your refrigerator. Instead, remove oil

and store in a tightly sealed container prior to refrigerating.

Replacing the filters:

Change the carbon filter every 6 months.

Change the oil filter every 12 months.

Filter replacement instructions:

1-Unclip and remove the filter cover.

2-Remove both, black and white, filter parts.

3-Discard old filters and replace with new ones. Make sure the white filter piece rests

into the metal surface directly below the (black) carbon filter.
