POWER-UP
After being turned on, the control executes a self-check routine. See ERROR MESSAGES, page 23.
After going through the self-check routine, the control enters either Fat Melt or Heating mode.
Fat Melt Mode
After power-up, if the oil temperature is below 135°F (57°C) and the FAT MELT mode is enabled, the
fryer enters MELT mode. MELT is displayed. Whenever the oil temperature is below 135°F (57°C),
if fat melt mode is enabled and the controller is not timing a product, the fryer will be in the MELT mode.
If you press OIL TEMP, the oil temperature will display.
If you will never be using solid shortening and use liquid shortening only, the controller can be
programmed so it will enter heating mode without going into the MELT cycle. See SELECT MELT,
MELT DISABLED, page 22.
Heating Mode
During Heating mode, the burners will heat to the set point of 350°F (176°C) or until a product cook
cycle is begun. WAIT displays and the HEAT indicator is lit. After reaching 335°F (168°C), READY
displays.
PRODUCT PADS (1-8) can be used to select a product cooking cycle.
START/STOP initiates the timed cycle for either left or right basket and indicates time remaining. The
oil temperature is controlled by the programmed temperature for the selected product. After a product
cycle has begun, the product name will display with an arrow indicating left or right basket.
MANUAL PRODUCT (9) allows you to set the time and temperature for the batch.
IDLE changes to IDLE mode (sets temperature back to 275°F (135°C) if programmed — see SEL
SETBACK, page 21).
OIL TEMP — press to display the oil temperature.
