CHAPTER 7: TROUBLESHOOTING

7.1 Introduction

This section provides an easy reference guide to some of the common problems that may occur during the operation of this equipment. The troubleshooting guides that follow are intended to help correct, or at least accurately diagnose, problems with this equipment. Although the chapter covers the most common problems reported, you may encounter problems that are not covered. In such instances, the Frymaster/Dean Technical Service staff will make every effort to help you identify and resolve the problem.

When troubleshooting a problem, always use a process of elimination starting with the simplest solution and working through to the most complex. Never overlook the obvious – anyone can forget to plug in a cord or fail to close a valve completely. Most importantly, always try to establish a clear idea of why a problem has occurred. Part of any corrective action involves taking steps to ensure that it doesn’t happen again. If a controller malfunctions because of a poor connection, check all other connections, too. If a fuse continues to blow, find out why. Always keep in mind that the failure of a small component may often be indicative of potential failure or incorrect functioning of a more important component or system.

Before calling a service agent or the Frymaster/Dean HOTLINE (1-800-551-8633):

•Verify that electrical cords are plugged in and that circuit breakers are on.

•Verify that frypot drain valves are fully closed.

•Verify that frypot float safety switch is not stuck in the "down" position.
