2.2. FILLING THE COOKER TANK
Both liquid and solid shortening can be used in this appliance, but liquid is preferred. If solid
shortening is used it is recommended that you melt the shortening before adding it to the
appliance. You can melt solid shortening in the appliance, but you must be very careful not to
scorch the shortening.
2.2.1. FILLING THE TANK WITH LIQUID SHORTENING
To fill the tank with liquid shortening refer to the following procedure.
1. Ensure that the drain valve is completely closed and that there is no residual moisture
in the tank.
2. Fill the tank with oil. You may fill the tank to the “MIN LEVEL” mark or slightly below the
nominal level mark: the oil will expand slightly when it heats up, raising the level
slightly.
2.2.2. FILLING THE TANK WITH SOLID SHORTENING
To fill the tank with solid shortening refer to the following procedure.
1. Remove the tank rack.
2. Cut the solid shortening
into cubes no larger than
one inch. ALWAYS pack
the shortening below,
between, and on top of the
burner tubes. Do NOT
leave any large air gaps.
Use care when packing the solid shortening into the tank. Do NOT bend or break the
temperature or high limit sensor probes. If these are damaged the appliance will not
function properly.
3. Once the appliance tank is firmly packed with shortening, the shortening must be
melted. Melt the shortening by cycling the
main burners on for 4 seconds and off for 30 seconds repeatedly, using the thermostat
knob. If your appliance has a Melt Cycle option, use this to melt the shortening
automatically.
WARNING
Oil/shortening must completely cover the heat tubes at all times while appliance is on.
CAUTION
This appliance is NOT designed for cooking with water.
Fill with oil or shortening only.
WARNING
NEVER melt blocks of
solid shortening on top of
the heat tubes This will
cause a fire and could
result in personal injury.
