4.1.1 Pilot Lighting Procedures, Electronic Ignition Systems
Initial Pilot Lighting: All Frymaster/Dean fryers are tested, adjusted and calibrated to sea level
conditions before leaving the factory. Adjustments to assure proper operation of pilot may be
necessary on installation to meet local conditions, low gas pressure, differences in altitude and
variations in gas characteristics. These adjustments correct possible problems caused by rough
handling or vibration during shipment, and are to be performed only by qualified service personnel.
These adjustments are the responsibility of the customer and/or the dealer and are not covered by the
Frymaster/Dean warranty.
The inlet pipe at the lower rear of the fryer brings incoming gas to the pilot safety control valve, then
to the pilot and main burners. The pilot is located high in the cabinet center, at the base of the
frypot.
Never use a match or taper to light pilot on this ignition system.

2. Turn electric power "ON" with the appropriate rocker switch or controller/computer.
3. The ignition module will energize the pilot gas supply and the ignitor. The ignitor spark will
ignite the pilot gas. The presence of the pilot flame is then proved by a flame sensor, which
sends a signal to the main gas supply, opening the valve. The operating thermostat or
computer/controller controls the fryer after ignition.
In the event of prolonged power failure, the ignition module will shut down and lock
out the system. Turn the unit power "OFF" and them back "ON" after power has
4. If the pilot flame fails, the ignition module will shut down and lock out the system. To restart,
turn the electric power "OFF", wait approximately 5 minutes for the system to recycle itself, then
turn the power "ON" again. Repeat Steps 1-3.
