YSCFHC18G HIGH EFFICIENCY COOL ZONE SERIES GAS FRYERS
CHAPTER 4: DAILY OPERATION
4-1
4.1 General Use
1. At opening, always check that the power switch and the computer are OFF.
2. For consistent quality product, convenience, and long-term savings, use a high-quality liquid
shortening.
3. If using solid shortening, never melt a block of shortening by placing an entire block in the
fryer vessel. Cut it into small pieces and pack it around fryer components.
4. Although 350°F (177°C) is the recommended temperature for most cooking operations, set
the fryer at the lowest possible temperature which produces a high quality end product while
ensuring maximum life for your oil.
4.2 Start-Up Procedures
1. If the fryer is empty, pour enough oil into the frypot to fill it to the bottom OIL LEVEL line
scribed on the rear wall. If solid shortening is used, melt the shortening following
procedures in Section 3.10, Final Preparation.
A. Pilot lighting procedure – Electronic Ignition
a. Turn gas "ON."
b. Turn electric power "ON" with the appropriate rocker switch or controller/computer.
c. The ignition module will energize the pilot gas supply and the ignitor. The ignitor
spark will ignite the pilot gas. The presence of the pilot flame is then proven by a
flame sensor, which sends a signal to the main gas supply, opening the valve. The
operating thermostat or computer/controller controls the fryer after ignition.
WARNING
In the event of prolonged power failure, the ignition module will shut down and lock
out the system. Turn the unit power "OFF" and then back "ON" after power has
been re-established.
d. If the pilot flame fails, the ignition module will shut down and lock out the system.
To restart, turn the electric power "OFF,” wait approximately 5 minutes for the
system to recycle itself, and then turn the power "ON" again. Repeat Steps a-c.
