3.1 Start-Up Procedure
DANGER
Never operate this appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled with
water (non-KFC co-branded locations) or cooking oil/shortening before lighting the
burners. Failure to do so will damage the frypot and may cause a fire.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of
the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects
of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.
CAUTION
The cooking oil/shortening capacity of the CF Series fryer is 80 pounds (43 liters) at
70°F (21°C).
Before lighting the fryer, make sure the fryer is OFF and the frypot drain valve is
closed. Remove the basket support rack, if installed, and fill the frypot to the bottom
OIL-LEVEL line.
If solid shortening is being used, make sure it is tightly packed down into the bottom
of the frypot.
