position. Wait 5 minutes, then turn the knob
to the ON postion and proceed with Step 2.

minutes before continuing with Step 2, which
will also turn on the gas valve.
2. Press the computer ON/OFF switch to the ON position.
3. If the burners fail to light, press the ON/OFF switch to the OFF position and wait 60 seconds.
Repeat step 2.
4. The fryer will automatically enter the melt cycle mode if the frypot temperature is below 180ºF
(82ºC) and will display MLT-CYCL alternating with LOW TEMP. (NOTE: During the melt
cycle, the burners will repeatedly fire for a few seconds, then go out for a longer period.) When
the frypot temperature reaches 180ºF (82ºC), the unit will automatically switch to the heating
mode and
LOW TEMP is displayed until within 15°F (9°C) of setpoint. The burners will
remain lit until the frypot temperature reaches the programmed cooking temperature. Once the
fryer reaches setpoint, the computer display changes to the product or dashed lines and the fryer
is ready for use
.
5. After the burners have been lit for at least 90 seconds, observe the flames through the burner
viewing ports located on each side of the combustion air blower.
