lid is not held down over the hose nozzle. To prevent shortening splashes, hold the lid
down over the hose nozzle.
 Hold the lid down over the hose nozzle to prevent shortening splashes.
 Position the FILL lever in the THRU HOSE position.
 Position
the FILTER/OFF/FRY switch to FILTER and shortening will automatically pump into the
pot.
 After 1 minute, hold the hose by the handle and carefully raise the lid to check the level of the
shortening.
 Let the filter continue to pump the shortening until the fill mark in the fryer pot is reached or until
air starts bubbling through the shortening.
 As soon as air is seen in the shortening, position the FILTER/OFF/FRY switch to OFF to prevent
shortening degradation.
 Add new shortening if the fill mark has not been reached.
