parts, and before cleaning.

Do not operate deep fryer with a damaged cord or plug or if fryer fails, or has been damaged in any manner.
Return fryer to West Bend Housewares for examination, repair or adjustment.

The use of accessory attachments not recommended by West Bend Housewares may cause injuries.

Extreme caution must be used when moving deep fryer containing hot oil.

Do not use deep fryer for other than intended use.

Always use deep fryer with liner secured in base.

Secure cover onto fryer whenever oil is hot. See detailed assembly instructions.

Always make sure temperature knob is at “0” before plugging cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, set

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS:

Your deep fryer needs no special care other than cleaning. See Warranty

section in this booklet for servicing details. Do not attempt to repair it yourself. For Household Use Only.

WARNING:

To prevent personal injury or property damage caused by fire, always unplug this and other

appliances when not in use.

Electrical Cord and Plug Information: WARNING:

Your deep fryer has a short cord as a safety precaution to

prevent personal injury or property damage resulting from pulling, tripping or becoming entangled with the cord. Do
not allow children to be near or use this
deep fryer without close adult supervision.
Do not use with an extension cord. Serious
hot oil burns may result from a deep fryer
being pulled off a table, countertop or
surface area. To avoid circuit overload, do
not operate another high wattage appliance
on the same circuit.

This appliance has a polarized plug (one
blade is wider than the other). As a safety
feature, this plug will fit in a polarized
outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit
fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this
safety feature.

"Loading the manual" means you need to wait until the file loads and becomes available for online reading. Some manuals are very large, and the time they take to appear depends on your internet speed.
