NOTE: Perform an initial Boil-Out to clean and
sanitize the fryer before operating.
Carbonized deposits along with an accumulation of oil
will eventually build-up on the interior of the frypot as
well as fryer accessories. It is important to periodically
remove these deposits, not only to maintain fryer
efficiency but also to provide the highest product quality.
NOTE: Always wear eye protection or a face
shield and protective rubber gloves
when cleaning the frypot as boil-out
chemical is an alkaline solution and can
cause severe burns.
1.
After emptying the fryer of oil or shortening, remove
filter cartridge from unit if equipped with a filtration
system. (See filtration instructions on page 16-17.)
NOTE: Initial access to the programming mode
must start with the control in the “OFF”
position.
2.
Open the front access door. With the Kettle/Nozzle
selector in the “KETTLE” position, rotate the drain
valve clockwise until rotation stops and the drain
valve is “CLOSED.”
3.
Fill the fryer to the maximum hot oil fill line with a
mixture of cold water and fryer boil-out solution.
Carefully follow the boil-out manufacturer's
directions for mixing the boil-out solution.
4.
Turn the Master Power Switch (located within the
front access door) to the “ON” position if not already
on.
5.
Within a few seconds, both LED's on
the operational control panel will
display “OFF” when the Master
Power Switch is initially engaged.
6.
Press and hold the Program Key for 10 seconds.
“Boil”
will appear as the first item
on the display whenever the
“PROGRAM”
key is initially
pressed.

BOIL-OUT SOLUTION AND SURROUNDING METAL
SURFACES BECOME EXTREMELY HOT. TO AVOID
BURNS, ALWAYS USE HAND PROTECTION WHEN
PERFORMING THE BOIL-OUT FUNCTION AND FOLLOW
THE MANUFACTURER'S SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS FOR
THE BOIL-OUT PRODUCT BEING USED.
C A U T I O N
BEFORE ENTERING THIS PROGRAM, MAKE CERTAIN
THE FRYPOT IS EMPTY OF ALL OIL OR SHORTENING.
C A U T I O N
TO AVOID DAMAGING THE PUMP AND CONTAMINATING
CLEAN OIL WITH BOIL-OUT CHEMICAL ON UNITS
EQUIPPED WITH A FILTRATION SYSTEM, NEVER ALLOW
BOIL-OUT SOLUTION OR RINSE WATER TO CIRCULATE
THROUGH THE FRYER PUMP SYSTEM OR FAT DRAWER.
C A U T I O N
DO NOT LEAVE THE FRYER UNATTENDED DURING THE
BOIL-OUT PROCESS. THE FRYER MUST BE
CONTINUOUSLY MONITORED FOR BOIL-OVER
CONDITIONS, PARTICULARLY IN HIGH-ALTITUDE
LOCATIONS. IF BOIL-OVER IS IMMINENT, IMMEDIATELY
TURN THE MASTER POWER SWITCH OFF AND ALLOW
THE SOLUTION TO COOL. WHEN THE SOLUTION HAS
COOLED, RE-ENTER THE BOIL-OUT MODE.
C A U T I O N
KEEP A CONTAINER OF COLD WATER ON HAND
DURING BOIL-OUT IN CASE OF BOIL-OVER. IF BOIL-
OVER IS IMMINENT, IMMEDIATELY TURN OFF MASTER
POWER SWITCH AND POUR COLD WATER INTO FRYPOT
TO QUICKLY REDUCE SOLUTION TEMPERATURE.
