Never leave oil unattended during preheating or cooking process as it can ignite and cause a fire.
Hot cooking oil is extremely hazardous and must be monitored at all times.
Remain attended to the cooker and when frying check the thermometer every 3 minutes.
Never allow oil to reach FIRE HAZARD zone on the thermometer.
Smoking oil is an indication that the oil is too hot and may ignite and cause a fire. Cooking
oil/grease ignites at varying temperatures, so check thermometer every 3 minutes during oil
heat-up and frying. Never allow the oil to exceed 400˚F and NEVER LEAVE HEATING OIL UNATTENDED.

There is a simple way to test a thermometer.
1. Inser
t thermometer stem into boiling water.
2. While wearing protective gloves, hold your thermometer by the dial and insert stem into boiling water.
The needle should quickly move around the dial and register approximately 212˚F (100˚C).
This indicates your thermometer is working. NOTE: Due to water evaporation, the maximum reading
on a thermometer in hot water test is 212˚F (100˚C). Hot cooking oil will send the temperature reading
above 212˚F (100˚C).
3. If the needle stops at a low temperature i.e. 180˚F; this indicates your thermometer is not working
properly. If so, discard the thermometer and call 1-800-864-6194 M-F 8am - 5pm CST for assistance.
Replacement thermometer Model #5020 or #5025.
DO NOT attempt frying if your thermometer is not working!
WARNING
Always use a thermometer when frying any food products. A thermometer is a sensitive measuring
device which may not work properly if dropped, bent, or twisted. Always check to be sure your
thermometer is working properly before frying. DO NOT use a meat thermometer when frying.
