Lighting The Fryer - Frymaster OCF30 Series Installation & Operation Manual

1. Fill the frypot with cooking oil to the bottom OIL LEVEL line located on the rear of the frypot.
This will allow for oil expansion as heat is applied. Do not fill cold oil any higher than the bot-
tom line; overflow may occur as heat expands the oil.
2. Ensure that the power cord(s) are plugged into the appropriate receptacle(s). Verify that the face
of the plug is flush with the outlet plate, with no portion of the prongs visible.
3. Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking temperature.

(82ºC). (NOTE: During the melt cycle, the burners will repeatedly fire for a few seconds, then
go out for a longer period.) When the frypot temperature reaches 180ºF (82ºC), the unit will au-
tomatically switch to the full heat mode. The burners will remain lit until the frypot temperature
reaches the programmed cooking temperature. On CM 3.5 equipped fryers the display changes to
LOW TEMP until within 15°F of the setpoint. Then the display changes to product or dashed
lines. On the 3000, once the fryer reaches setpoint, the controller display changes to DROP and
the fryer is ready for use.
