Autolift Fryer Operation
Upon setting up your equipment, the following steps must be followed:
1. Read the complete instruction manual before proceeding
2. Plug the unit into a power source. Ensure the electrical cable is not damaged and does not hang over the counter
• Set desired cooking time on timer, basket will lower into oil and lift out when the timer returns to zero
Before, during and after operation, the following steps must be followed:
• Only use a good quality oil purchased in liquid state (ie: Vegetable oil, Canola oil etc.)
• Do NOT use solid oil under any circumstances
• Never use copper, brass or plastic utensils in oil
• Keep unit covered when not in use
• Check oil daily and change if necessary when cooled down, some foods that are fried degrade oil quicker than others
• A fire danger exists if the oil level is below the minimum marked level
• The use of old cooking oil can reduce the flash point of the oil and make it more prone to surge boiling
• Surge boiling can also be caused by over wet food or too large a charge of food
Thermostat settings for most foods is between 170°C and 180 °C. For foods direct from the freezer, allow 5’C higher temperature or
slightly longer cooking time. Always shake cold water and ice from food before frying. As a general rule, for larger portions cook at a
lower temperature a longer time. For smaller portions cook at a lower temperature for a shorter time. When the unit reaches the selected
temperature, the thermostat pilot light will turn off, indicating that the power is no longer being drawn. As the temperature drops, the
thermostat turns on and power is returned to the element.
Over Temperature Cut-Out
This unit is fitted with a safety devise which prevents the unit from over heating. This heat sensitive devise breaks the electricity if the unit
overheats. If you overheat your oil this devise may trip the unit.It can be reset by depressing the button situated at the rear of the fryer head.
Repeated tripping indicates a potential failure of parts. In this event, please contact our service department.
After Hours
• The unit MUST be
switched OFF
