ALWAYS disconnect fuel source and power supply
before servicing.
NEVER move a fryer when full of oil.
NEVER introduce objects or liquids into fryer, while op-
erational, which are not designed or made for cooking.

NOTE:
It is estimated that half of all service calls made
on Keating Instant Recovery® Fryers result from an
inadequate gas supply. During installation, have a gas
company representative make certain that the fryer is
receiving adequate gas pressure and volume (see “In-
stallation” or your serial plate on the fryer door).
PROPANE GAS MAY EVENTUALLY LOSE ITS ODOR
AND PRECAUTIONS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO ASSURE
THAT IT IS NOT PRESENT EVEN THOUGH YOU DO NOT
DETECT AN ODOR. IF THERE IS ANY DOUBT, YOU
SHOULD CALL YOUR LOCAL PROPANE GAS SUPPLIER
FOR ASSISTANCE.
OPERATING
FILLING
NOTE:
Before fi lling the fryer make certain the fryer ves-
sel is sanitized, dry and the drain valve is completely
closed.
NOTE:
Solid shortening can not be used in a Keat-
ing Model AA Gas Fryer. If solid shortening is used, it
should be melted prior to fi lling the fryer vessel. Dam-
age done by melting solid shortening in the fryer vessel
will void the warranty.
BE SURE THE HEAT TRANSFER TUBES ARE COM-
PLETELY COVERED WITH OIL BEFORE SWITCHING
THE FRYER ON. IF OIL LEVEL DROPS BELOW TOP OF
HEAT TRANSFER TUBES, SEVERE DAMAGE TO FRYER
AND INJURY TO OPERATOR MAY RESULT.
WATER IN ANY FORM AND HOT OIL DON'T MIX!
OIL EXPANDS WHEN HEATED. THE MAX LEVEL LINE
HAS BEEN PROVIDED TO ENSURE OPTIMUM COOK-
ING WHILE ENSURING THE SAFETY OF THE OPERA-
TOR. DO NOT OVERFILL THE FRYER VESSEL.
Fill the fryer vessel with oil or MELTED solid shortening
up to the “Max” line.
LIGHTING
BEFORE ATTEMPTING TO LIGHT THE FRYER, MAKE
SURE THE GAS CONNECTIONS ARE SECURE AND
HAVE BEEN LEAK TESTED AND THE FRYER HAS BEEN
PROPERLY FILLED WITH OIL.
