INTRODUCTION
The Thermostat Controller utilizes a thermostat that is directly connected to a temperature knob
mounted on the control panel. Rotating the knob to the desired cooking temperature physically
adjusts the thermostat control to that temperature. Placing the ON/OFF
Switch in the ON
position supplies power to the fryer’s components and causes the switch to illuminate. Placing the
Melt Cycle
Switch in the ON position causes the fryer to cycle on for a few seconds and off for a
longer period. The purpose is to prevent scorching shortening, and to prevent overheating the frypot
or elements while gradually melting blocks of shortening. This switch is also illuminated when in
the ON position. The Heat Mode Indicator
illuminates when the frypot is below setpoint.
DANGER
Do not cancel the melt-cycle mode if using solid shortening!
CAUTION
The fryer will remain in the Melt Cycle mode until turned off by placing the Melt Cycle
Switch in the "OFF" position.
