grease. Press the Open Lid button and then remove the Frying Basket and place on
a paper towel.
10. Place food inside Frying Basket. Do not fry too many pieces at one time. Overloading
will lower the oil temperature, causing food to absorb too much oil and cook
improperly. For best results with frozen foods, reduce the quantity of food.

cause splattering. Remove any excess ice crystals on frozen foods before placing in
Frying Basket.

caution: Always close the Lid before immersing food in oil. Do not immerse or
drain food with the lid removed or open.

use the recommended times in your recipe.
