Before Your First Use
Carefully unpack the Deep Fryer and remove all packaging materials. Remove
the Deep Fryer Lid, Oil Pan, Oil Pot Filter Screen, Frying Basket, Control Panel
and Housing. Wash all parts except the Control Panel and Power Cord in warm
soapy water. Never immerse the Control Panel and Power Cord, simply wipe
with a damp cloth. Do not use harsh or abrasive cleansers on any part of the
Deep Fryer. Always ensure all components are completely dry prior to first use
as water will cause severe spattering of the oil.
1
Prior to adding oil ensure that your Drain Tap Lock is in the closed
position and that your Drain Tap Filter is properly seated in the Oil Pan
Drain and free of any food debris. Place the Safety Drain Cap on the Tap.
See page 12.
2
Never heat oil in your Deep Fryer without first ensuring that your Drain
Tap is not leaking, and that your Drain Cap is securely in place. See page 11
for proper installation.
Warning: Do not clean the Deep Fryer by heating soapy water in it because
there is danger that the water could overflow. Do not immerse the control
panel or power cord in water. Reassemble the unit after cleaning.
3
Never drain hot oil, or while your Deep Fryer is plugged in. Disconnect the
plug from the wall outlet first and allow the oil to completely cool.
4
Never attempt to remove the Filter Screen by the Screen itself as this will
permanently damage the Screen. Always grasp from the metal tube and
pull straight up.
IMPORTANT NOTICE: Your deep fryer comes equipped with a removable
screen located in the Oil Pan at the drain. This will prevent large pieces of food
from becoming caught in the drain tap which could cause leaks. Please see
the following important safeguards regarding your Drain Tap:

6
To clean the Filter Screen hold the Filter by the metal tube and wash in
warm soapy water. Flush water through the tube to push food particles
out of the screen Never apply pressure to the filter screen itself to
avoid damage.
Should your Screen become damaged, discontinue use and contact our
customer service department for replacement.

Frying Guide
Guidelines for Deep-Frying
Cooking times are suggestions. Adjust them according to your own
preference and the amount of food being cooked. Do not cook more
than 3.0 lbs of food and not to exceed the MAX line as indicated on the
frying basket
1
Always fry food between the temperatures of 350-375° unless recipe
specifies otherwise. Cooking at lower temperatures allows for more
oil absorption, which makes the food taste greasy.
2
3
Make sure READY indicator is on before lowering food into oil.
Never fill the basket greater than the MAX line as indicated on the
basket near the handle. Too much food will prevent the food from
moving around and browning evenly. In addition, it may slow down
the cooking time. Fry in smaller batches for faster, crispier fried food.

When selecting oil to use in your Deep Fryer, choose a high
quality brand of peanut oil, canola oil, or vegetable oil. These fats
can withstand high temperatures well. Do not use butter, margarine,
animal fats or olive oil because these smoke at lower temperatures.
Do not mix different oils. Do not use shortening or lumps of fat as
your Deep Fryer thermostat will overheat and could cause a
flash fire.

Before Deep frying any foods, remove excess moisture by blotting
well with a paper towel.
WARNING: Do not add water, wet foods or icy frozen foods to cooking
oil, because this will cause the oil to splatter and may result in injury. Do
not move the Deep Fryer while cooking, or at any time when the oil is
hot. Do not attempt to drain the oil while the oil is hot. To check food
during frying, look through the viewing window or you may carefully
open the lid by using the black handle only. Do not touch any metal
surfaces of your Deep Fryer as they are hot and can cause burns. Do not
place your hands above the filter vent on the lid while cooking, as the
steam is hot and can cause burns.
10 Do not add water, wet foods, or icy frozen foods to hot oil, because
this will cause the oil to spatter, which may result in injury.
11 When frying battered foods, shake off any excess batter or coating
before putting in the oil.
12 Never pour salt into the oil. Instead, salt the food while it is hot and
draining on a paper towel.
13 Frozen foods can be cooked in the basket. Follow directions on food
package. Use caution when lowering the basket in the oil, as the ice
crystals can cause spattering. Always lower slowly into the oil.
14 After cutting potatoes for French fries or potato chips, wash in cold
water to remove starch. This will keep them from sticking together.
Dry completely before frying.
15 Never place any plastic utensils into hot oil. Do not pour hot oil into
plastic containers.
16 Never drain hot oil from the spout, always unplug your Fryer and
allow it to completely cool before draining

Preparing for Frying
Care and Cleaning
Warning: Do not attempt to clean your Fryer or drain the oil while
either the Fryer or the oil is hot. Allow unit to completely cool.
Many deep-fried foods are coated with a breading or batter before
frying. This helps to retain the moisture and flavor of the food and
protects the food from absorbing too much fat. Batters can also add
appetizing texture, flavor and appearance to the food to be fried.
Before cleaning, unplug the cord from the wall outlet first, and then from
your Deep Fryer and wait for the Deep Fryer to cool completely. Remove
the Control Panel with heating element from the base by lifting vertically.
Never immerse the Heater Control Unit in any liquid. Clean the heating
element with hot, soapy water, being careful not to wet the control
panel. Wash the Lid, Frying Basket, Oil Pot Filter Screen, and Cooking
Pot in warm, soapy water and dry thoroughly. Clean the exterior of the
Control Panel with a slightly damp cloth. Wipe the Deep Fryer housing
with a damp cloth. Always ensure that all components are dried
thoroughly, as any residual water will cause spattering of oil.
Following are general guidelines for breading and battering foods,
including a variety of coatings you may not have thought of before.
Quantities will vary according to the amount of foods you are frying.
Following these tips will help prevent coatings from separating and
falling off into the Fryer.
Breading Foods For Frying
1
Set up three bowls or plates.
2
3
Place flour in the first bowl.
Draining the oil
In the second bowl, make an egg wash by mixing eggs and either
water or milk.
The oil must be completely cool to avoid the risk of a burn injury.
Ensure that the drain tap has clearance to drain directly into the storage
container. Place a storage container under the Drain Tap. When moving
the Fryer to drain oil, ensure that all four feet of the Fryer Housing stay
on the countertop.
4
In the last bowl, place the breading of your choice, like bread crumbs
or cornmeal. Try one of the following suggestions: fine dry bread
crumbs, fresh bread crumbs, crushed corn flakes, cracker meal, corn
meal, panko - rice bread crumbs, instant potato flakes, and rice flour
Ensure that your storage container is placed below the tap before
attempting to drain the oil. Push the black safety lock up while
simultaneously pulling the Tap Drain Lever down to drain the oil (see
figures 8, 9 and 10). When oil has completely drained press the Drain
Latch up into the closed position (see figure 11). Wash the Oil Pot in
warm soapy water and dry thoroughly before use. The Tap can be
cleaned by allowing warm soapy water to flow through the tap, followed
by rinsing with clear water.
5
Clean the food to be fried and shake off any excess water. If desired,
season the food with salt and pepper.
6
7
Dip the food in the flour and shake off the extra flour.
Dip the food in the egg wash; let the extra drain off so that the
crumb coating will be even.
8
9
Lastly, dip the food in the crumbs, pressing gently and making sure it
is coated completely. Shake off excess.
Cover and refrigerate used oil for up to two weeks. Discard oil if it
becomes thick or rancid. Change the oil when it is a dark color, smells
bad or there is a bad taste in the food.
Have a pan handy to hold the breaded food until ready to fry.
Tip: While breading food, occasionally remove any lumps from the
flour and crumbs for even coverage.
Important: Do not immerse the Deep Fryer Control Panel or Power Cord
in water or other liquid. Do not place any parts of the Deep Fryer in your
dishwasher. Always hand wash as described above and dry thoroughly.
Reassemble the Deep Fryer for storage by folding the handle into the
basket and placing the lid on top.
Battering Foods For Frying
Batters are semi-liquid mixtures containing flour or starch. They are used
in deep frying to give a crisp, flavorful coating. They are great on
seafood and vegetables, such as broccoli or shrimp.
• Many different liquids may be used: milk, beer, water, sake.
• Eggs may not be used.
• Too thick of a batter is not as palatable as a light one.
• For lighter results, use a leavening agent, such as baking powder,
beaten egg whites, beer or seltzer.

Fried Chicken
Spring Rolls
In Vienna, fried chicken is always served with a salad of mixed greens,
