performed only by qualified service personnel. These adjustments are the responsibility of
the customer and/or the dealer and are not covered by the Frymaster warranty.
The inlet pipe at the lower rear of the fryer brings incoming gas to the pilot safety control
valve, then to the pilot and main burners. The pilot is located high in the cabinet center, at
the base of the frypot.
WARNING
In the event of prolonged power failure, the ignition module will shut down and lock out
the system. Turn the controller to "OFF" and then back "ON" after power has been re-
established.
5. If the pilot flame fails, the ignition module will shut down and lock out the system. To re-
start, turn the controller "OFF", wait approximately 5 minutes for the system to recycle it-
self, then repeat step 3.
CAUTION
If the pilot and main burner go out, the fryer(s) MUST be left completely shut down at
least 5 minutes before lighting.
WARNING
When checking for burner ignition or performance, do not get too close to the burners.
Slow ignition can cause possible flashback, increasing the potential for facial and body
burns.
4. When the controller is switched on, if the fryer temperature is below 180°F (82°C) the fryer
will begin heating and will display MELT CYCLE IN PROGRESS. (NOTE: During the melt
cycle, the burners will repeatedly fire for a few seconds, then go out for a longer period.)
The shortening must be stirred occasionally during the heating process to ensure all the
shortening in the vat is liquefied. When the frypot temperature reaches 180ºF (82ºC), the
unit will automatically switch to the heating mode and PREHEAT is displayed until within
15°F (9°C) of setpoint. The burners will continue to heat until the frypot temperature
reaches the programmed cooking temperature. Once the fryer reaches setpoint, the
controller display changes to START and the fryer is ready for use. DO NOT DISABLE OR
CANCEL THE MELT CYCLE IF USING SOLID SHORTENING.
6. Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking temperature.
Auto top off will ensure the oil level is maintained at the top OIL LEVEL line.
7. The maximum batch load for French Fries in oil or fat shall be no more than 1½ pounds or
0.7 kilograms.
3.3 Shutting the Fryer Down
For short-term shut down during the workday, place the controller ON/OFF switch in the OFF
position and put the frypot covers in place (if the fryer is so equipped).
