3-1. OPERATING COMPONENTS
(Continued)
High Limit This high temperature control senses the temperature of the
shortening; if the temperature of the shortening exceeds
450°F (230°C), this control will open and shut off the heat
to the frypot; when the temperature of the shortening drops
to a safe operation limit, the control must be manually reset by
pressing the red reset button, located under the control panel, in the
right, front of the fryer
Filter Drain Pan The removable pan that houses the filter and catches the shortening
when it is drained from the frypot; also used to remove and discard
old shortening
When hot shortening is in this pan, use extreme care to
avoid burns.

3-3. MELT CYCLE If the shortening is below 185°F (77°-85°C) with the POWER/
OPERATION PUMP switch in the POWER position, the fryer enters the Melt
Cycle. The shortening is heated slowly to prevent scorching of the
shortening. The heat cycles on and off to ensure slow melting of
shortening. At 185°F (85°C) the heat stays on until the Cool Mode
is reached, which is 250°F (121°C). The controls maintains this
temperature until the COOL button is pressed.
