CHAPTER 4: DAILY OPERATION

4.1 General Use
1. At opening, always check that the power switch and the computer are OFF.
2. For consistent quality product, convenience, and long-term savings, use a high-quality liquid
shortening.
3. If using solid shortening, never melt a block of shortening by placing an entire block in the
fryer vessel. Cut it into small pieces and pack it around fryer components.
4. Although 350°F (177°C) is the recommended temperature for most cooking operations, set
the fryer at the lowest possible temperature which produces a high quality end product while
ensuring maximum life for your oil.
