THERMOMETER INSTRUCTIONS AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS FOR
DEEP FRYING WITH OUTDOOR COOKERS
1. Always use a deep fry thermometer when using this appliance as a fryer/boiler.
a. Before each use of the appliance make sure that the thermometer is properly calibrated by
placing the tip in a pot of boiling water. The thermometer should register within +/-20° of
212°F or +/-10° of 100°C. If the thermometer is miscalibrated, contact Metal Fusion, Inc.
to obtain a replacement before using the appliance.
b. Hang the thermometer on the inside of the pot with the probe immersed in the cooking
liquid. Never place a lid over a pot when monitoring the temperature of oil.
c. Once the fire has been lit monitor the temperature on the thermometer at all times. Water
boils at 212°F(100°C). The temperature of hot oil should never be allowed to exceed
350°F(177°C).
IMPORTANT: Oil can ignite at high temperatures. Most King Kooker
®
thermometers have a Red Zone
above 350°F(177°C) to signify Danger. Never allow the temperature to exceed 350°F(177°C). If the
temperature goes above 350°F(177°C) immediately turn the burner and gas supply OFF and wait for the
temperature to decrease to below 350°F(177°C) before relighting according to instructions in the manual.
If at any point during the cooking process the oil begins to smoke, immediately turn the burner and gas
supply OFF regardless of the reading on the thermometer. Allow time for the oil to cool, then contact Metal
Fusion, Inc. for further instructions.
d. When the cooking is complete and the cooker has been turned off, allow the temperature
of the oil to fall below 100°F(38°C) before moving the pot, cooking oil, or cooker.
e. Please call Metal Fusion, Inc. at (800) 783-3885 with any questions concerning the use or
operation of the thermometer.
