TO THE PURCHASER

Post in a prominent location the instructions to be followed in the event that an operator smells gas. Obtain this information from your local gas supplier.

WARNING

There is an open flame inside the fryer. The unit may get hot enough to set near by materials on fire. Keep the area around the fryer free from combustibles.

WARNING

DO NOT supply the fryer with a gas that is not indicated on the data plate. If you need to convert the fryer to another type of fuel, contact your dealer.

WARNING

DO NOT use an open flame to check for gas leaks!

WARNING

Wait 5 minutes before attempting to relight the pilot to allow for any gas in the fryer to dissipate.

WARNING

Never melt blocks of shortening on top of the burner tubes. This will cause a fire, and void your warranty.

WARNING

Water and shortening DO NOT mix. Keep liquids away from hot shortening.

Dropping frozen liquid food into the hot shortening will cause violent boiling.

WARNING

Ensure that the fryer can get enough air to keep the flame burning correctly. If the flame is starved for air, it can give off a dangerous carbon Monoxide gas. Carbon monoxide is a clear odorless gas that can cause suffocation.

WARNING

A cooker equipped with casters and a flexible gas line, must be connected to the gas supply with a quick disconnect device. This quick disconnect must comply with ANSI Z24.41. To limit the movement of the cooker without depending on the connector or quick disconnect, a restraining cable must also be installed.

NOTICE

Counter top must be constructed of a non-combustible material for SG14C counter top fryer installations.
