The filter pump motor is equipped with a manual reset button,
located on the rear of the motor, in case the motor overheats. Wait
about 5 minutes before attempting to reset this protective device to
allow motor to cool. The filter motor is on the rear of the fryer. It
takes some effort to push the reset, and a screwdriver can be used to
help reset the button.
Electric fryers with serial numbers of HB013JB & below, and gas
fryers with serial numbers of GA085JB & below, can push the reset
button, by removing the access panel on the left side panel of the unit.
To prevent burns caused by splashing shortening, turn

device.
