  Several factors could prevent your LOCO COOKERS Fryer burner from lighting. First, ensure the regulator coupling nut is fully tightened on the LP tank valve. Also, check that the LP tank isn't empty and refill it if necessary. Make sure you press and hold the ignition button until the burner lights. Verify that the + and – ends of the battery are correctly oriented, with the + end toward the battery cap. Replace the battery with a new alkaline AA battery if it's weak or dead. Finally, unscrew and reinstall the battery cap, ensuring the threads are aligned and fully engaged.

  If the oil in your LOCO COOKERS Fryer isn't reaching the desired temperature, first ensure the regulator control knob is fully open by rotating it clockwise. If that doesn't work, the Overfill Protection Device (OPD) on the LP tank may have been activated. To reset it, turn the regulator control knob and the LP tank valve OFF. Disconnect the regulator from the LP tank and wait at least one minute. Reconnect the regulator to the LP tank and fully open LP tank valve.

  If your LOCO COOKERS Fryer burner isn't staying lit, it could be due to excessive wind. When the appliance is cool, move it to a location with less wind and relight the burner. Another possibility is that the LP tank is empty; refill it at an authorized dealer or purchase a new filled LP tank.
