TESTING THE GAS SUPPLY SYSTEM

When test pressures exceed 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa), the fryer and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system.

When test pressures are 1/2 psig (3.45 kPa) or less, the fryer must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its individual manual shutoff valve.

FLUE CONNECTIONS

This pressure fryer must be installed under a ventilating hood. From the termination of the fryer flue vent to the filters of the hood venting system, a minimum clearance of 18" (46 cm) must be maintained.

Do not obstruct the flow of flue gases from the flue duct located on the rear of the fryer. It is recommended that the flue gases be ventilated to the outside of the building through a ventilation system installed by qualified personnel.

Information on the construction and installation of ventilating hoods may be obtained from the standard for "Vapor Removal from Cooking Equipment," NFPA No. 96 (latest edition).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS

WARNING: ELECTRICAL AND GROUNDING CONNECTIONS MUST COMPLY WITH THE APPLICABLE PORTIONS OF THE NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE AND/OR OTHER LOCAL ELECTRICAL CODES.

WARNING: APPLIANCES EQUIPPED WITH A FLEXIBLE ELECTRIC SUPPLY CORD ARE PROVIDED WITH A THREE-PRONG GROUNDING PLUG. IT IS IMPERATIVE THAT THIS PLUG BE CONNECTED INTO A PROPERLY GROUNDED THREE-PRONG RECEPTACLE. IF THE RECEPTACLE IS NOT THE PROPER GROUNDING TYPE, CONTACT AN ELECTRICIAN. DO NOT REMOVE THE GROUNDING PRONG FROM THIS PLUG.

If the fryer is not equipped with a grounding plug and electrical supply is needed, ground the fryer by using the ground lug provided at the rear (refer to the wiring diagram located on the inside of the fryer door panel).

Do not connect the fryer to electrical supply until after gas connections have been made.

Connect polarized plug to 110/125-volt, single-phase, 60-cycle, 15-amp polarized receptacle.

LIGHTING INSTRUCTIONS

1.Turn gas combination control valve (Fig. 4) (located at the rear of the fryer) clockwise to the OFF position.

2.Wait 5 minutes for unburned gas to vent.

3.Turn gas combination control valve counterclockwise to the ON position.

4.Turn gas valve ON (Fig. 5).

5.Turn power switch to ON.

6.If burner does not light, turn power switch, gas valve and gas combination control valve OFF and repeat steps 2 through 5.

If burner flame is interrupted, the electronic igniter will automatically relight the burner.
