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.
1.
Pour oil into the pot up to the MAX
line. Never go over the MAX mark
as this may allow the oil overflow
when food is added.
2.
Turn the function dial to
DEEP
FRYER
, adjust the cooking time
and temperature if necessary, then
press
START/STOP
button to start
preheating.
3.
Place the food in frying basket.
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.
When cooking time is completed, the display will show “
END
”; the
unit will beep 3 times and turn off automatically.
7.
Carefully remove the basket from the pot.
8.
To turn off the unit before cook time ends, press
