Careful observation of the finished food product will
help determine optimal filtering frequency. Filtering
the cooking oil at regular intervals will help ensure
food quality.
FOR BEST RESULTS: Do not allow the
temperature of the oil to decrease below the “Idle
Mode” temperature of 250°F (121°C) when filtering.
If filtering at the end of the day, pump oil back into the
kettle while still hot. Do not allow oil to cool before
returning to kettle.
1. Open the front access door. With the Nozzle
selector in the “NOZZLE OFF” position, rotate
the drain valve counterclock-wise until rotation
stops and the drain valve is in the “OPEN”
position. Power to the main control panel will
automatically switch “OFF.”
2. Allow contents of the fryer to completely drain.
3. Press the PUMP “ON” to allow the oil to
circulate through the drain system to flush
crumbs. Using the brushes provided, brush the
sides, bottom and under the heat exchangers of
the fryer while the oil is circulating through the
system.
4. Press the PUMP “OFF” and allow contents of the
fryer to completely drain.
5. Rotate the drain valve clockwise to the
“CLOSED” position.
6. Press the PUMP “ON” and allow the fryer
to refill to the recommended level adding
additional oil/shortening as required to
maintain proper fill level.
7. Press the PUMP “OFF” button.
8. After the frypot has completely refilled, pull out
the mobile oil trolley and discard the filter into
a proper receptacle. Clean the filter assembly
and oil trolley, if needed.
9. Replace the oil filter and return the trolley to the
proper position beneath the fryer.
10. Press and hold the “ON/OFF” key on
the main control panel for 1-1/2 to 2 seconds to
energize the fryer. Continue normal fryer
operation after the preheat function has been
completed.
