2.If the fryer is equipped with a piezo ignitor, press and hold the pilot (white) button, then repeatedly press the piezo ignitor button until the pilot lights.
If the fryer is NOT equipped with a piezo ignitor, place a flame near the pilot assembly, push and hold the PILOT (white) button in, light the pilot, and continue to depress the button for at least 60 seconds after the pilot lights.
3.Failure to hold the button in long enough will cause the pilot to go out when the button is released. If the pilot goes out when the button is released, wait at least 5 minutes then repeat this step.
NOTES ABOUT FRYERS WITH ELECTRONIC IGNITION SYSTEMS
WARNING
Never use a match or taper to light the pilot on this ignition system.
When the computer/controller power switch is placed in the ON position, the ignition module will turn the pilot gas supply on and provide an ignition spark. The spark will light the pilot. A flame sensor verifies the presence of the pilot flame. Unless the pilot flame is sensed, the ignition module will not allow the gas valve to supply gas to the burners. The computer/controller controls the firing of the burners after pilot ignition takes place.
If the pilot flame fails, the ignition module will shut down and “lock out” the system. To restart the system, turn the computer/controller OFF, wait approximately 5 minutes for the system to recycle itself, then turn the computer/controller ON again.
WARNING
In the event of prolonged power failure, the ignition module will shut down and “lock out” the system. Turn the computer/controller OFF and then back ON after power has been
