will turn ON and oil should begin heating.
Upper Display

will indicate PREHEAT and the Lower Display

shows the real-time oil temperature as
heating occurs.

MAX ELEMENT TEMP alarms. This is especially important during the initial heat-up of the day, when shortening
may be cool and in a thickened state.

⑥
reads “ALARM
STIR OIL” . Press the [ALARM] key

and vigorously stir oil. There is a 10 second delay and if oil temperature
drops below setpoint while stirring, Controller remains in PREHEAT until setpoint is reached again. A second
alarm will sound and the Upper Display will read “ALARM - SETPOINT REACHED” . This process will mix and
eliminate cool zones throughout the volume of oil and promote more even heating. Press the [ALARM] key and
the Controller enters READY state. Temperature displayed in the Lower Display
⑦
changes to the setpoint temperature.
Oil should now be evenly heated and ready for cooking.
