2.4. COOKING
To ensure the quality of the food you cook in this appliance, follow the preparation instructions from
the food manufacturer. When the appliance is not in use, the oil/shortening should be cooled and
covered to prevent contamination. A maximum load of 1.5 lbs. (0.7kg) per basket is recommended.
Exceeding this recommendation may affect food quality and could cause surge boiling.
2.4.1. TIMER OPERATION
Not all control types include timers. Timers provide accurate cook times for multiple product
quantities and types. Refer to the operator’s manual for your appliance’s specific control type to
determine how to set the cook timers if equipped.
To start a timer: Press the appropriate timer button.
2.4.2. ADDITIONAL CONTROLLER FUNCTIONS
Some controllers have additional functions not described in this manual. If your appliance’s
controller has additional functions, refer to the controller’s operation manual to access these
functions.
*The specified buttons and/or displays may appear slightly different then shown. Refer to
the operator’s manual for your appliance’s specific control type to determine the exact
appearance of each button and display.
2.5. COOKING TIPS
 Always follow the food manufacturer’s directions.
 The lower the oil temperature, the longer the cooking time and the greater the fat absorption.
 NEVER overfill fryer baskets. Overfilling can result
in soggy, greasy product.
 When removing baskets from the cook tank, shake
gently to remove excess oil.
 Never leave a basket over the fryer. The heat from
the cook tank will continue to cook the product.
 Oil/shortening quality can effect product quality.
Keep salt and water away from the oil/shortening to
maintain its life. Oil/shortening filtration removes
crumbs from the oil which will also extend its life.
WARNING
Dry fired heat tubes are extremely hot, will shorten its service life and may void your
warranty.
