INITIALCLEANING

When the fryer is shipped, many of its parts are covered with a thin coat of oil for protection. Before the fryer is ready for cooking it must be cleaned. This will remove the oil coating and any foreign matter that may have accumulated during storage and shipment. Perform the cleaning as described below.

a.Fill the tank with water and add one packet of Pitco fryer cleaner or a mild detergent, and turn gas valve knob to ON position.

b.Computer Controller: Press the button on the controller panel to turn fryer ON. The

fryer will automatically switch into the boil-out mode which will prevent the fryer from boiling over. Note: do not leave the fryer unattended during this operation. Once the fryer has heated up to approximately 1950F, allow it to operate for 15 minutes to allow any build

up in the tank to soften.

NOTE

Do not leave the fryer unattended during cleaning. Never let the water level go below the "Min Level" mark on the back of the tank.
