FRYER OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Normal operation of an ANETS Fryer requires that the kettle is filled with liquid shortening to above the lower indent level marked on the rear of the kettle, before lighting the fryer’s main burners.
!
CAUTION: Shortening MUST be in liquid form to avoid scorching or discoloration and possible damage to the kettle. Damage caused by melting solid shortening will NOT be covered by the warranty.
