oil filtration instructions (for units with installed option)

Careful observation of the finished food product will help determine optimal filtering frequency. Filtering the cooking oil at regular intervals will help ensure food quality.

FOR BEST RESULTS: Do not allow the temperature of the oil to decrease below the “Idle Mode” temperature of 250°F (121°C) when filtering. If filtering at the end of the day, pump oil back into the kettle while still hot. Do not allow oil to cool before returning to kettle.

1.Open the front access door. With the Nozzle selector in the “nozzle” position, rotate the drain valve counterclock-wise until rotation stops and the drain valve is in the “open” position. Power to the main control panel will automatically switch “off.”

2.Allow contents of the fryer to completely drain.

3.Press the Pump “on” to allow the oil to circulate through the drain system to flush crumbs. Using the brushes provided, brush the sides, bottom and under the heat exchangers of the fryer while the oil is circulating through the system.
