CHAPTER 3: OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

3.1 Start-Up Procedure

DANGER

Never operate this appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled with water (non-KFC co-branded locations) or cooking oil/shortening before lighting the burners. Failure to do so will damage the frypot and may cause a fire.

WARNING

The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.

CAUTION

The cooking oil/shortening capacity of the CF Series fryer is 80 pounds (43 liters) at

70°F (21°C).

Before lighting the fryer, make sure the fryer is OFF and the frypot drain valve is

closed. Remove the basket support rack, if installed, and fill the frypot to the bottom

OIL-LEVEL line.

If solid shortening is being used, make sure it is tightly packed down into the bottom

of the frypot.
