PROBLEM
Fried food does
not have a
golden-brown
color and/or is
not crispy.
Fryer gives
off a strong,
unpleasant odor.
Unit does not
heat.
THINGS TO CHECK
• Selected temperature is too low or food
has not been fried long enough. Check food
package or Frying Chart on page 10 for
correct temperature or preparation time.
• There is too much food in basket. Never fry
too much food at one time. See food package
or recipe for correct frying amount. Food
pieces may be too thick to fry adequately.
• Volume of oil is too low.
• Oil isn't fresh. Change oil. Filter oil regularly to
keep it fresh longer.
• When frying food with a high moisture
content (such as chicken or fries), change oil
frequently.
• Type of oil is not suitable for deep-frying food.
Use good quality frying oil. Do not mix two
different types of oil or fat.
• Ensure magnetic cord assembly is properly
attached to fryer socket.
• Ensure electrical cord assembly is plugged
into electrical outlet.
• Heating element assembly not correctly
assembled. Make sure heating element
assembly is properly installed on base. See
"How to Assemble the Fryer" on page 6.
• Press Reset button on heating element
assembly. Make sure fryer has recommended
amount of oil in oil pot.
