CHAPTER 6: COMPUTER OPERATION

6.1.1 Equipment Setup and Shutdown Procedures

Setup

WARNING

Fill the frypot to the bottom OIL LEVEL line with vegetable oil before pressing the ON/OFF switch to the "ON" position. Failure to do so could damage the frypot.

1.Fill the frypot with vegetable 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. If solid shortening is used, pack solid shortening into the cool-zone of the frypot. Continue to pack shortening in frypot to the bottom

OIL LEVEL line.

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 vegetable oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when the vegetable oil is at its programmed cooking temperature. It may be necessary to add vegetable oil to bring the level up to the proper mark, after the oil has reached the programmed cooking temperature. If solid shortening is used, the MELT cycle MUST be used to melt the shortening. It may be necessary to add solid shortening to bring the level up to the proper mark after the packed shortening has melted. DO NOT DISABLE OR CANCEL THE MELT CYCLE UNTIL ALL SOLID SHORTENING HAS MELTED.

Shutdown

1.Press the ON/OFF switch to the "OFF" position (the display will show "OFF").

2.Filter vegetable oil (if applicable) and clean fryers. See Chapter 7.

3.Place the frypot covers on frypots.
