Please refer to printing on the cord connector that states "This Side Up." To reduce the risk of electric shock, a polarized plug is used. This plug is intended to fit only into a polarized outlet. If the plug does not fit into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any manner. Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord in the wall outlet. To disconnect, turn any control to "off," then remove plug from wall outlet. SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS CAUTION: A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a long cord. EXTENSION CORD USE An extension cord or longer detachable cord is not recommended for use with deep fryers. ELECTRIC POWER If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may not operate. It should be operated on an electrical circuit that is free from other appliances. If you are not sure of the reason for overloading or cannot find a separate circuit, contact a qualified electrician. This appliance is for 120 volts only and should not be used with a converter. IMPORTANT SAFETY TIPS 1. Always keep lid closed while deep fryer is cooking food. Use basket handle to raise and lower basket. Always raise basket out of hot oil and rest on basket hook, to allow food to drain completely before removing. 2. BEWARE OF STEAM WHEN OPENING LID. 3. Wet food should be dried first with paper towels. Remove loose ice from frozen foods. Close the lid when frying. Beware of oil splattering when food is put into the oil. 4. Keep appliance at least 4 inches away from walls or other objects during operation. Do not place any objects on top of appliance while it is operating. 5. Be sure oil container is filled to at least the minimum oil level. Do not fill above the maximum. Do not operate appliance without oil or with an insufficient amount of oil. Never pour oil into heated oil container. 6. Do not operate this appliance if the lid and the oil container are not completely dry. 7. Keep this fryer out of reach of children while in use and away from edges of countertops where it could be pulled off or pushed over by children. 8. Do not use any solid/hydrogenated oil, shortening, olive oil, grapeseed oil or lard in this deep fryer. DO NOT MIX OILS, as they may have different smoke points. USE GOOD QUALITY OIL that has a smoke point of 420°F or higher.
