OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Read all the sections of this booklet and follow all the instructions carefully.
Using for the First Time
Warning: Never plug in the control panel when it is not installed in the fryer body with heating element in the oil container. Do not immerse the control panel, cord or plug in water.
Warning: This unit should not be used to boil water.
Prior to First Use, Clean the Unit Thoroughly
Warning: Always let the fryer cool completely for 2 hours before taking it apart for cleaning. Never carry or move the deep fryer with hot oil inside. Before cleaning, always make sure the plug is not in the wall socket.
•All components with the exception of the electrical parts, can be washed in warm soap water. Dry thoroughly before use.
•Use basket handle to remove the frying basket. Always make sure the basket handle is securely attached to the basket. Attach the handle to the frying basket, insert the metal part of the handle inside the metal bracket on the frying basket. (Fig. 1)
•Lift the control panel with heating element out of its slots by pushing it up from the bottom with one hand while holding the body of the deep fryer with your the other hand.
•Remove the oil container.
•Clean the oil container and the frying basket with hot water, dishwashing liquid or other non-poisonous detergent and non-abrasive sponge.
Warning: Never immerse the control panel in water or any other liquids.
Warning: All components must be completely dried before filling with oil or using. Special care must be taken to ensure the washable oil filter in the lid is completely dry, otherwise the filter will not function properly and may lead to steam being trapped within the fryer during use.
Warning: Never exceed 'MAX' line when filling the basket with food.
Filling the Oil Container
Warning: Never plug in the deep fryer before filling with oil to specified level. Always make sure control panel is securely in place in the body and the heating element is inside the oil in the container before plugging in.
•Use blended vegetable oil, pure corn oil or canola (rapeseed) oil. Do not use olive oil, margarine, lard or drippings.
Euro Pro F1066 Fryer User Manual Guide
•The oil level must always be maintained
between the minimum and the maximum levels marked inside the oil container. Check the oil level before each use. For best results, Do NOT exceed “MAX” level for cooking oil. (Fig. 2)
•Never mix different oils and fats together. Do not mix old and new oil.
Using Solid Fat
Warning: Do not put solid shortening in the oil container or the frying basket.
•If using solid vegetable shortening, melt it first in a separate pan and then very carefully pour the melted fat into the oil container.
•Previously used solid vegetable shortening which has curdled and hardened in the oil container should be removed from the oil container and melted in a separate pan before reusing.
Warning: If you try to melt the solidified fat in the oil container, there is a risk of warm melted fat suddenly sputtering from below through the still solid top layer of fat. Therefore use only the following procedure:
•Make sure the fat is at room temperature. If the fat is very cold, there is a greater risk of splashing.
•Using a fork, carefully make some holes in the fat. Make sure the lid is securely closed while fat is melting. Press the 'Function' Reset button and press timer button to set the time you require.
Installing the “Control Panel with the Heating Element” into its Place

Warning: In order to avoid injury or burns, never touch any metal parts on the deep fryer because they may be hot.
Filling the Frying Basket
•Do not fill the frying basket when it is immersed in oil.
•Place the food in the frying basket. Do not overfill it and never exceed the “MAX” line on the frying basket. For optimum results and shorter frying time, fry smaller quantities.
•The basket has approximately 1.5 lb. food capacity. It will hold 4-5 average size pieces of chicken.
•Do not fill the basket higher than the MAX line on the basket with frozen food.
Warning: When frying frozen foods, remove the frying basket from the deep fryer before filling because oil will spatter and cause burns.
Caution: When frying frozen foods such as french fries, you should not exceed 1.25 Lb. (564 gr.) or less. Clean off any ice from frozen food prior to frying. Failure to do so may cause fryer to overflow when food is placed in oil.
Frying Food
•Always use the frying basket to fry food.
•Always close the lid cover during frying.
•When the oil is pre-heated, ready indicator light will come on indicating that the desired temperature is reached.
•Slowly lower the frying basket into the hot oil. Lowering the frying basket too quickly can result in the oil overflowing and splashing.
•Replace the lid carefully.
•It is normal for steam to escape through the sides of the lid while frying.
•Avoid standing too close to the deep fryer while it is working.
Warning: When opening the lid cover after frying, lift the lid slightly, then wait to allow steam to escape before removing the lid completely. Keep face away from unit to avoid burns caused by escaping steam.
At the End of Cooking
•Press the power button to turn the power off.
•Unplug the power cord from the wall outlet.
•Lift up the lid cover slowly and wait to allow steam to escape before removing the lid cover completely.
•Lift up the frying basket by the handle. Place it on the oil container and allow the food to drain for a minute.
•Once the oil has drained from the frying basket, the basket may be lifted off and the food served.
Warning: Always let the deep fryer cool completely (approximately 2 hours) before cleaning or storing. Never carry or move the deep fryer with hot oil inside.
Frying Tips
•Do not mix different oils or new and old oil together.
•Replace oil regularly. In general, oil will be tainted fast when frying food containing a lot of protein, (such as poultry, meat and fish). When oil is used mainly to fry potatoes and is filtered after each use, it can be used up to 8 to 10 times, but do not use the same oil for more than 6 months.
•Always replace all oil as soon as it starts foaming when heated or when color becomes dark or when it has a rancid smell or taste or becomes syrupy.
•Make sure that the food to be fried is dry.
•Remove loose ice from frozen food before frying.
•To cook evenly, pieces should be the same size and thickness.
•Thicker pieces will take longer to cook.
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
The following cooking times reflect only the approximate time needed to fry one basket 1/2 full. The exact time may be different depending on actual quantity, personal cooking preferences, size and thickness of pieces, etc...
Temperature Settings
In general, use lower settings for delicate foods (vegetables, fish) and higher settings for frozen foods, french fries and chicken.
Food | Cooking Time | Temperature |
French Fries | 6-9 minutes | 375°F |
Fish Fillets | 3-5 minutes | 320°F |
Chicken Fingers | 6-8 minutes | 350°F |
Chicken Pieces | 13-20 minutes | 350°F |
Fried Zucchini | 3 minutes | 320°F |
Fried Mushrooms | 3 minutes | 320°F |
Onion Rings | 3 minutes | 320°F |
Donuts | 3-5 minutes | 350°F |
Apple Beignets | 4 minutes | 350°F |
Shrimp | 4-6 minutes | 320°F |
Filtering & Changing the Oil
•Make sure the deep fryer is unplugged and the oil has cooled before cleaning or storing the deep fryer.
•The oil does not need to be changed after each use. In general, the oil will be tainted rather quickly when frying food containing a lot of protein (such as poultry, meat or fish). When oil is mainly used to fry potatoes and is filtered after each use, it can be used 8 to 10 times. However, do not use the same oil for longer than 6 months.
•To filter the oil, first make sure the oil has cooled and then empty the oil from the oil container into another container or bottle. (Fig. 6)
•Wash and dry the oil container and basket. Refill the oil container with the oil, pouring the oil through a wire strainer or paper filter. (Fig. 7)
