3.2 Boiling Out the Frypot
To ensure that the frypot is free of any contamination resulting from its manufacture, shipping, and
handling during installation, the frypot must be boiled out before first use. It is recommended to boil out
the frypot each time the oil or shortening is changed.
•
Before lighting the burner, close the frypot drain valve and fill the frypot with a mixture of cold
water and boil-out solution or detergent. Fill to the lower oil-level line.
•
Light the fryer in accordance with the lighting instructions in Section 3.1.
•
Simmer the solution for one hour.
