Continued on Next Page
The following section describes procedures for cleaning and maintaining the appliance, that are needed to help
keep it in good operating condition. A general cleaning of the appliance should be performed daily and other
activities should be preformed as described in the following.
A Boil‐Out is the procedure for cleaning/degreasing the fryer vat and heating elements. This must be performed
before cooking with the new fryer, and should be performed promptly before refilling fryer with fresh cooking oil
after waste oil is removed and discarded.
For proper maintenance and to ensure satisfactory operation and food quality, a boil‐out should typically be
performed every 7 to 10 days, however, exact timing of oil replacement is dependent on many factors. Oil quality
test kits, which can help accurately determine oil condition, are available from most restaurant supply providers.
• The boil‐out does not require a rolling boil ... However, as a best practice, DO NOT leave fryer unattended
during this procedure. Closely monitor as a safeguard against an accidental overflow ... overflow can result in
serious equipment damage.
• Always don personal protective equipment (gloves/oven mitts, face‐shield, latex apron, etc.) while
performing the boil‐out process.
• When using fryer degreasing/cleaning products, closely follow the manufacturer’s usage instructions. Many
such products may contain chemicals, which require special precautions. If used improperly, equipment
damage and/or personal injury could result.
