3.1Equipment Setup and Shutdown Procedures
Setup
DANGER
Never operate the appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled to the fill line with water or oil before energizing the elements. Failure to do so will result in irreparable damage to the elements and may cause a fire.
DANGER
Remove all drops of water from the frypot before filling with oil. Failure to do so will cause spattering of hot liquid when the oil is heated to cooking temperature.
1.Fill the frypot with cooking oil to the bottom OIL LEVEL line located on the rear of the frypot. This will allow for oil expansion as heat is applied. Do not fill cold oil any higher than the bottom line; overflow may occur as heat expands the oil.
2.Ensure that the power cord(s) is/are plugged into the appropriate receptacle(s). Verify that the face of the plug is flush with the outlet plate, with no portion of the prongs visible.
3.Ensure that the power is switched on. Some models are equipped with a master switch located behind the fryer door cabinet on the front panel of the component box, next to the fuse. See page
4.Ensure that the computer is switched ON.
5.Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking temperature. It may be necessary to add oil to bring the level up to the proper mark, after it has reached cooking temperature.
Shutdown
1.Turn the fryer off or STANDBY.
2.Filter the oil and clean the fryers (See Chapters 4 and 5).
3.Place the frypot covers on the frypots.
