INITIAL CLEANING
When the fryer is shipped, many of its parts are covered with a thin coat of oil for protection. Before the fryer is ready
for cooking it must be cleaned. This will remove the oil coating and any foreign matter that may have accumulated during
storage and shipment. Perform the cleaning as described below.
a. Fill the tank with water and add one packet of Pitco fryer cleaner or a mild detergent, and turn gas valve knob
to ON position.
b.
Computer Controller:
Press the
button on the controller panel to turn fryer ON. The
fryer will automatically switch into the boil-out mode which will prevent the fryer from
boiling over.
Note: do not leave the fryer unattended during this operation.
Once the fryer
has heated up to approximately 195
0
F, allow it to operate for 15 minutes to allow any build
up in the tank to soften.
NOTE
Do not leave the fryer unattended during cleaning. Never let the
water level go below the "Min Level" mark on the back of the tank.
