The Melt Cycle
To avoid burning congealed oil (shortening), a slow heating action may be necessary. If
this is desired, be sure that in the Configuration Mode [etype] / [melt] has been set
to [```on]. Then, when the oil temperature is below 212 ºF the heat output will be lim-
ited to 10% of full power. This reduces the chance of burning congealed oil while it is
heating.
Run a Menu (with preheat feature)
This procedure describes how to run an active menu when the preheat feature is inac-
tive — in other words, when the
[ready]
parameter in the
[setUp]
function of the
Configuration Mode is set to
[``yes]
.
1.
Set the cooking time and temperature as shown earlier.
2.
With [`idle] or time of day on the display, press the Start/Stop key.
If the control’s preheat condition has not been met, the fryer will preheat until
[Ready] appears on the display. If the fryer is at operating temperature [Ready]
will immediately appear on the display.
3. With
[Ready] on the display, place the food in the basket and press the Start/Stop
key (indicated by the flashing red light). The Start/Stop indicator will light up, the
basket will lower automatically. Time will count down on the display.
4. When the cooking cycle is finished the basket will rise automatically. One of the fol-
lowing will happen, depending on the way the controller was programmed at
[EtypE] / {Sound]:
With Sound set to 0: The controller automatically switches to idle, where the con-
troller maintains the temperatures at set point and does not run time. [`idle] or
time of day will appear on the display. The Start/Stop indicator light will flash slow-
ly.
