IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following: 1. Read all instructions before using. 2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. 3. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse unit, cord or plugs in water or other liquid. 4.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. This Deep Fryer is equipped with Rival’s exclusive SureRELEASETM Power Cord System, which includes a detachable magnetic cord designed to separate from the unit when certain amounts of force are applied. (See details on pg.6 for instructions on proper usage of the SureRELEASETM magnetic cord.) A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
KNOW YOUR DEEP FRYER Removable Filter Cover Charcoal Odor Filter White Grease Filter Removable Lid Removable Condensation Tray (back of fryer, not shown) Oil Reservoir Fryer Housing Ready Indicator (Green) Power Indicator (Red) Open Lid Button Adjustable Thermostat • Serving spoon included. PREPARING YOUR FRYER FOR USE Prior to first use, remove all packaging materials from the exterior and interior of the fryer.
TIPS FOR DEEP FRYING • Fill the unit between the maximum and minimum capacity lines only. • To achieve quality results deep frying food needs to be surrounded by oil. Too much food causes the oil temperature to drop, resulting in “soggy” food. • Be sure that all ice crystals are removed from the food and food is completely dry. Excessive water and ice can cause the oil to splatter and/or overflow. • Coated foods (bread crumbs, batters, etc.) are best for deep frying.
HOW TO USE YOUR DEEP FRYER (CONTINUED) 4. Make sure that fryer is off and insert plug into 120 volt AC outlet. 5. Turn fryer to desired temperature position. The Power Indicator will illuminate. The Ready Indicator will illuminate when the oil has reached the preset temperature. 6. Using your slotted spoon, place food inside the fryer (Do not over stack food). Close Lid until it snaps into place. Overloading will lower the oil temperature, causing food to absorb too much oil and cook improperly. 7.
CARE AND CLEANING WARNING: ALWAYS TURN CONTROL TO “OFF” THEN DISCONNECT PLUG FROM WALL OUTLET BEFORE DISCONNECTING SureRELEASE™ CORD. CAUTION: • Do not immerse cord sets in water or any liquid. • Do not attempt to defeat the detachable magnetic SureRELEASETM cord system by trying to permanently attach cord set to product. • Do not stick pins or other sharp objects in holes on magnetic cord set. • Do not use any type of steel wool to clean magnetic contacts. 1. Turn unit OFF. 2.
CARE AND CLEANING (CONTINUED) When replacing LID, the spring on LID must be inserted down in front of the metal clip that is located on the fryer housing. NOTE: Always remove LID before emptying the OIL RESERVOIR or cleaning. CAUTION: Ensure that lid is in place and secure prior to operation of unit. REPLACING AND CLEANING FILTERS 1. Open the FILTER COVER. 2. WHITE GREASE FILTER may be washed in hot soapy water. Allow to air dry. 3. Clean the inside of the cover with a damp soapy sponge.
TIPS FOR OIL USE AND STORAGE NOTE: Do not use seasoned or flavored oil such as walnut, olive oil, lard or drippings because they have a low smoke point. Use blended vegetable oil, pure corn oil, sunflower oil, soybean oil or grapeseed (canola oil). These oils are safe for using in your deep fryer as they have a high smoke point. Peanut oil is not recommended because it greatly impacts the flavor. • Oils should never be mixed when deep frying.
