OPERATION
WARNING: HOT OIL AND PARTS CAN CAUSE BURNS. USE CARE WHEN OPERATING,
CLEANING AND SERVICING THE FRYER.
WARNING: SPILLING HOT FRYING COMPOUND CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS. DO NOT MOVE
FRYER WITHOUT DRAINING ALL FRYING COMPOUND FROM THE TANK.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Clean the Fryer and Heating Elements
Do not operate fryer without frying compound or water solution in the tank.
Using a non-corrosive, grease-dissolving commercial cleaner, clean the protective metal oils from all
surface parts and the tank interior. Follow the cleaner manufacturer's directions. Rinse thoroughly and
drain by opening the drain valve (accessible when the door is opened). After cooling, wipe tank and
heating elements completely dry with a soft clean cloth. (See also CLEANING — WEEKLY in this
manual.)
NOTE: When cleaning, avoid moving the thermostat bulb or capilary.
Clean all fryer accessories. Rinse all parts thoroughly after cleaning and wipe dry.
FILLING THE FRY TANK WITH SHORTENING
Liquid shortening may be used in all HFD/HFC Series Fryers.
Melting solid shortening without using the melt cycle will damage the heating elements and scorch the
shortening. Only fryers equipped with the MELT cycle may use solid shortening. Solid shortening must
be gently warmed to the liquid state before heating to frying temperatures. On HFC fryers, the computer
must be programmed for MELT ENABLE.
Fill fryer tank to the fill level line on back wall (Fig. 2). Keep shortening at the fill level line in the fry
tank. Add fresh shortening as needed. Do not overfill tank.
