INTRODUCTION
The Computer Magic III (CM III.5) ensures consistent product quality by allowing the operator to
enter specific cooking parameters for up to 12 products. These parameters remain stored in the
computer’s memory. Pressing a single button initiates a cooking cycle using the stored parameters
so that every batch is fried the same way. For fryers equipped with basket lifts, the computer also
controls lowering and raising the basket. Other features include a melt-cycle for solid shortening, a
boil-out mode for cleaning the frypot, and automatic recovery-time checks. The computer can be
programmed to display temperatures in Fahrenheit or Celsius, and to display the time remaining in a
cooking cycle or to constantly display the frypot temperature.
NOTE: This computer is configured for the fryer on which it is installed (i.e., gas or electric and
full- or split-pot). Although identical in appearance, computers configured for use on one type of
fryer are not directly interchangeable with those configured for use on another type.
