Setting the Cooking Temperature

The cooking temperature setpoint must always be manually entered ... the programmable Menu Item presets do
not include a cooking temperature settings.
Instructional prompts will be shown on the upper display to help guide you.
As a precaution, ALWAYS KEEP the control panel HEAT switch in OFF position unless vat is
filled to [FULL] level with cooking oil, or water.
• If actual oil temperature is lower than the entered setpoint, controller will immediately enter PREHEAT (small red
HEAT indicator beside lower display screen turns ON) when setpoint is saved. Oil does not actually begin heating,
until the control panel HEAT switch is placed in ON. The amber control panel HEAT indicator light will turn ON,
burners ignite & oil begins heating.
• If actual oil temperature is equal to or hotter than the entered setpoint, an alarm sounds & message "SETPOINT
REACHED" is displayed on upper screen. Press the [ALARM] key ... fryer enters READY state & is ready to cook.
While heating, real­time actual oil temperature is shown on the lower display screen. After setpoint is reached, the
display will change to show setpoint temperature instead of actual.
NOTE:
Pressing the [TEMP] key twice (2x) will display actual temperature for 20 seconds.
The default measurement unit for temperature is [°F] ... it can be changed in Section 4.1.8, Controller User Settings.
