OVER-TEMPERATURE SHUTDOWN
If the shortening becomes overheated, a high-

valve off and extinguish the pilot.
If the fryer shuts down due to overheating, DO
NOT relight the pilot until the shortening
temperature is below 300°F (149°C).
If an overheating situation persists, contact your
local Vulcan-Hart authorized service office.
BEFORE FIRST USE
Cleaning
New units are wiped down at the factory to
remove any visible signs of dirt, oil, grease, etc.
remaining from the manufacturing process.
• Before any food preparation, thoroughly
wash protective oil from all surface parts
and the tank interior with hot, soapy water to
remove any film residue and dust or debris.
Note: Do not use chlorine or sulfate/sulfide
cleaners.
• Wash any accessories shipped with unit.
• Rinse fryer and accessories thoroughly
and drain the fryer. (Open the front door to
access the drain valve.)
CAUTION: On fryers equipped with the
KleenScreen™ filtering system,
do not drain cleaning solution
into the pump or filter system.
