SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is intended for household
use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized
plug. This type of plug has one blade wider
than the other. The plug will fit into an elec-
trical outlet only one way. This is a safety
feature intended to help reduce the risk of
electrical shock. If you are unable to insert
the plug into the outlet, try reversing the
plug. If the plug should still fail to fit,
contact a qualified electrician to replace the
obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat
the safety purpose of the polarized plug by
modifying the plug in any way.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload do not
use another high wattage appliance on the
same circuit with the fryer.
BEFORE FIRST USE:
Wash basket, lid
(with all filters removed) and oil reservoir
according to directions in “Cleaning Your
Fryer” on page 6.
CAUTION:
Do not immerse fryer, cord or
plugs in water or other liquid.
WARNING:
Serious Hot-Oil burns may
result from a Deep-Fat Fryer being pulled off
a countertop. Do not allow the cord to hang
over the edge of the counter when it may be
grabbed by children or become entangled
with the use.
DO NOT USE WITH AN EXTENSION CORD.
