Press PROGRAMMING BUTTON (Item 8) to lock in sensitivity setting. If you do not need to change the sensitivity, press PROGRAMMING BUTTON (Item 8).
NOTE: SENS -- Sensitivity is a built-in feature that causes the computer to adjust cooking time to compensate for the drop in shortening temperature when a basket of product is placed into the fryer. Different food products will vary in density, basket load size and initial temperature. Food products will also vary in how well cooked a product is required to be. A proper sensitivity setting for each product will assure a high-quality product each time. For example: four ounces of french fries can be programmed to be cooked to the same quality as two and onehalf pounds. Some experimenting with the range of 1 to 9 may be required to obtain the desired quality to meet your specifications.
- "COOC" (COOK) is now displayed in Item 1. If a cooking time has been entered in the program prior to this programming, it will appear in Item 2.

Example: Total Cook Time 3:00 minutes
