Installation
GBF-50 Fryer
Installation is now complete and the appliance is ready for use. Before attempting to use it for the first time, please
carefully read the remainder of this manual to become familiar with all controls, functions, operational procedures
and necessary maintenance/cleaning activities. Adhering to the methods and processes described here will help
keep your new GILES fryer performing flawlessly for many years.
Disassemble and thoroughly clean all parts of the filter pan to remove residue which may remain from manufacturing
processes, or dirt and debris that may have accumulated during warehousing and shipment. For details, see Section
4.02, Cleaning the Filter Pan & Refreshing Filter Media.
Wash all of the accessory items included with the fryer (cooking baskets, basket carriers, screens, utensils, tools, etc) in
warm soapy water, rinse and allow to dry completely.
Inspect unit for any adhesive plastic protective film which may remain on sheet metal surfaces. Some film is typically
left in place as added protection during storage and shipment. Remove all such material and clean the entire exterior of
the unit with a good quality stainless steel cleaner/polish. DO NOT use cleaners that are abrasive or contain caustic
chemicals.

Remote Equipment Monitoring
If your new equipment is factory‐equipped with optional Giles’ KITCHENTRAC™ remote
monitoring, the account must first be created before the feature will be active. A one‐time
activation fee (per business establishment) and a monthly subscription (per controller
monitored) is required.
After appliance installation is complete and an account has been established, the controller(s) must be connected to
the business establishment’s local WiFi network, and subsequently to the KITCHENTRAC™ server. A wireless router
which provides a continuous open connection to the internet, located within range of the monitored appliance, is
required.
A detailed WiFi Connection Manual (Form #66313) should have been packed with the unit. Before the monitoring
service is active, the steps outlined must be completed. If you have purchased a banked system, the procedure
must be performed for each controller. Appendix A in the back of this manual also explains the connection process.
Once connection has been completed, you will be able to monitor appliance performance, productivity, menu
trends, operational status, etc. and access other available analytics by simply logging‐in to the KitchenTrac™
website from any computer or remote device (smart‐phone, laptop, or tablet).
