Deep fryer can u put water in a deep fryer instead of oil

In order to remove the heating element of a Cuisinart deep fryer you need to do the following:

1. Unplug the fryer.
2. Tip the fryer and put the oil into a container.
3. Put the fryer on its side, with the open top over the sink and a bowl in the sink beneath it. Leave it this way so most of the rest of the oil can drain.
4. Wipe the inside of the fryer with a paper towel.
5. Put several layers of newspaper on the counter and stand the electric deep fryer upside down on top of the paper. You will see that there are rubber feet under the base held in by screws.
6. Remove the feet and screws and you will be able to take off the base to expose the electrical workings inside.
7. Locate the heating element which has wires leading to it. Start by removing the wires leading to it and then loosen up and remove the heating element itself.

Hi there.
If the bubbles come up after loading products on fryer, check the product load quantity and reduce as needed so oil will not overflow. Bubbles came from the water content of the product; more water inside the product, the more bubbles it will produce during cooking so it it better to check the loading quantity.

Try visiting http://www.imperialrange.com, you will be able to download owner's manual for fryers there.

Switch it off as quick as you can and never put water or any liquid on frypot. Allow it to cool down by itself.

Fryers use 2 types of stainless steel. Get a magnet and see if it sticks to the inside of the tank. If so...that is a lower grade of stainless. Use some steel wool to clean the rust spots and cover with vegetable oil. The tanks should be ok if you just bought them.

You can to see if it just heats but not to see if it gets to temp. Water boils well below what the preset for oil for frying will be. You will literally boil your experiment out before you get there. That can fry electronics. Be CAREFUL.

Despose of the old oil. Hand wash everything with dawn dish soap and water. Except the electical componets wipe with damp cloth. Unplug for your own safety of electrical shock

The product that you put in the oil should be room temp,if not this will happen.

thanks, all i did was put water in the the pot, took a three liter jug and emptied the water into it. it takes about nine liters , thanks again. jack

The oil should be hot enough so that when a drop of water is droped into it the oil will sputter, but not not hot enough to cause any smoking vapors!
