DETERMINING PROPER FILL LEVELS FOR COOKING VESSELS
Your cooker includes pots which have been stamped with a line or lines which indicate the level to
which the oil should be filled for cooking. These lines are labelled on the pots. Fill the pot with oil to the
appropriate level before lighting the cooker or adding food. Never overfill the cooking vessel with oil,
grease or water. Never fill a pot beyond the maximum fill line. Always fill to at least the minimum fill line
when cooking with oil. Some pots have only one fill line. This indicates the exact level to which the oil
should be filled before it is heated and food is added.
