BIELA14 SERIES GEN II LOV™ ELECTRIC FRYER APPENDIX A: RTI (BULK OIL) INSTRUCTIONS
NOTE: The instructions in this manual for using a bulk oil system for filling and discarding oil are for an RTI system. These instructions may not be applicable to other bulk oil systems.
A.1.1 Bulk Oil Systems
Bulk oil systems have large oil storage tanks, typically located in the rear of the restaurant, that are connected to a rear manifold on the fryer. Waste oil is pumped from the fryer, via the fitting located on the bottom, to the disposal tanks and fresh oil is pumped from the tanks, thru the fitting located on the top, to the fryer (see Figure 1). Remove the plate exposing the RTI connection and connect the RTI connection to the fryer (see Figure 2). Set the fryer to bulk through the setup mode and set all computers to bulk oil. See Section 4.9 on page
The LOV™ fryers, equipped for use with bulk oil systems, have an onboard fresh oil jug supplied by RTI. Remove the cap and insert the standard fitting into the jug with the metal cap resting on the lip of the jug. The oil is pumped in and out of the jug through the same fitting. (see Figure 3).

The momentary switch used to reset the JIB low LED is also used to fill the jug in an RTI system. After resetting the JIB LED, pressing and holding the momentary switch, located above the JIB, allows the operator to fill the jug from the bulk oil storage tank (see Figure 4).
To fill the jug, press and hold the JIB reset button until the jug is full, then release.*
NOTE: Do NOT overfill the jug.

For instructions on filling the vat from bulk, see Section 4.11.4 page
*NOTE: It takes approximately twelve seconds from the time the fill JIB button is pressed until the RTI pump starts. It may take up to 20 seconds before the level in the JIB begins to rise. Typically it takes approximately three minutes to fill the JIB. It takes approximately one minute to fill a split vat and two minutes to fill a full vat.
