What is the maximum frying temperature?

• During the frying cycle, the red indicator light will switch ON and OFF as the temperature rises and falls due to the thermostat control.

• Put your desired food into the fryer basket and slowly lower the basket into the oil.

Care has to be taken that the oil level does not rise too close to the edge of the oil container when the fryer basket is inserted, in case it does, please take out some food from the basket.
