The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the appliance manufacturer may cause injuries.
Do not place any of the following materials in the unit: Paper, cardboard, plastic and / or similar non-food materials.
Some countertop and table surfaces, such as Corian®, wood, stone and/ or laminates, are not designed to withstand prolonged heat generated by certain
appliances. It is recommended by countertop manufacturers and Maxi-Matic that a hot pad or trivet be placed under your Elite deep fryer to prevent possible
damage to the surface.
Do not use outdoors.
Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch hot surfaces.
Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, turn control(s) to OFF position, then remove plug from wall outlet.
Oversized foods or metal utensils must not be inserted in the appliance as they may cause a fire or risk of electrical shock.
A fire may occur if the appliance is covered or touching flammable material including curtains, draperies, walls and the like when in operation.
Do not clean with metal scouring pads. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts, involving a risk of electrical shock.
Extreme caution should be exercised when using containers constructed of a material other than metal or glass.
Always place the deep fryer on a stable surface and keep all flammable materials away from the unit during operation.
Make sure that the deep fryer is never near or on a switched-on stove or cooking surface.
Before you use the deep fryer it must be filled with the required amount of oil or fat. **Never use the deep fryer without oil or fat because this could damage the unit.
If the deep fryer and/or cord are damaged, they must be repaired by a professional service department. Do not try to repair the unit yourself or replace the damaged
cord. This requires special tools. Always contact our Customer Service Department for replacement parts.
Be sure not to damage the heating element. (Do not bend or dent.)
The electrical component is equipped with a safety heat switch, which ensures that the heating element can only function when the element is correctly placed on

If you use solid vegetable shortening, cut it into pieces and melt it over slow heat in a separate pot beforehand, then slowly pour it into the deep fryer pot. Never
pour shortening directly into the deep fryer pot or basket as this will lead to deterioration of the appliance.
Before you use the deep fryer it must be filled with the required amount of oil or fat. **Never use the deep fryer without oil or fat because this could damage the unit.

Short Cord Purpose
NOTE: A short power cord is provided to reduce the risk of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer
cord.
Longer power-supply cords or extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
If an extension cord is used: (1) the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of
the product; (2) the extension cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can unintentionally
be pulled on or tripped over by children or pets.

Polarized Plug
This appliance has a polarized plug (meaning one blade is wider than the other one), please follow the below instructions:
To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only in one direction. If the plug does not fit
fully 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 way.

This Appliance is intended for Household Use Only.
