Normal operation of an ANETS Fryer requires that the kettle is filled with liquid shortening above the
lower indent level, marked on the rear of the kettle, before lighting the fryer’s pilot and turning on the main
burner.
CAUTION: Shortening MUST be in liquid form to avoid scorching or discoloration and possible
damage to the kettle. Damage caused by melting solid shortening will NOT be covered by the warranty.
