3
Specific Precautions
Risk of fire exists if the oil level drops below 5mm of the maximum oil level.
Use of oil/shortening older than the manufacturer’s recommendations for life of
the oil is prone to surge boiling and flash fires. Follow the oil manufacturer’s
guidelines for the life cycle of oil/shortening.
Do not open the drain valve or the fill valve while the fryer is under pressure. Serious burns may result.
The appliance and its individual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psi (3.5 kPa).
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Do not store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors or liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
Improper installation, adjustment, alteration, service or maintenance can cause property damage, injury or death. Read the installation, operation and maintenance instructions thoroughly before installing or servicing this equipment.
Follow instructions regarding effects of surge boiling of over-wet foods and proper load size.
Equipotential ground plane When a high current flows through a conductor, differences in potential appear between the conductor and nearby metallic surfaces near the appliance. As a result, sparks may be produced between the appliance and surrounding metal surfaces. These sparks could cause serious injury, damage, or fire.
BKI provides an Equipotential ground terminal for the connection of a bonding conductor after the installation of the appliance per lEC60417-1. This terminal is located on the inside of the Power Entry Supply box near the Earth connection and is marked with this symbol.
Full Disconnection
In accordance with Local and/or National wiring codes, the installer must provide a means of full disconnection under over voltage Category III conditions. An IEC approved cord and plug combination will meet this requirement.
Units not provided with a cord and plug do not meet this requirement. In accordance with Local and/or National wiring codes, the installer must provide the means of full disconnection.
The fryer is designed to hold a maximum of 75lbs (34KG) of oil/shortening.
The purchaser must post, in a prominent location, instructions to be followed in the event the user smells gas. This information shall be obtained by consulting the local gas supplier.

Safe Work Practices
Do Not Store or Use Anything Flammable Near the Fryer
Your pressure fryer is powered by either natural gas or LP gas. Do not store or use gasoline or any flammable liquids or vapors near this or any other appliance. Flammable materials will burn easily. Letting any flammable liquid or vapor get too close to the fryer could cause an explosion or fire. Serious injury could result. Examples of flammables that you should not store near the fryer are gasoline, paint, thinners or removers, gas tanks, and cleaning materials.
Use Gas Safely-- Avoid Danger
Gas can be a dangerous fuel if not handled safely. Make sure to ventilate the fryer properly. If the fryer is not properly
ventilated, carbon monoxide can be released around the fryer. Asphyxiation or suffocation can occur if gas is not ventilated properly.
Before using this appliance for the first time, contact your local gas supplier for instructions about what to do if you smell gas. Post those instructions somewhere near the fryer, so that everyone who
uses or works near the fryer knows what to do if they smell gas.
Beware of High Voltage
This equipment uses high voltage. Serious injury can occur if you or any untrained or unauthorized person installs, services, or repairs this equipment. Always Use an Authorized Service agent to Service Your Equipment.
Noncombustible Floors Only
Make sure your floor is noncombustible. Do not operate your fryer on floors that are wood, carpeted or have rubber mats. 
• Placing your fryer on a combustible floor could cause a
fire. Serious injury could result.
• Examples of noncombustible floors where you can safely place your fryer are concrete, tile, and ceramic.
5
Keep the Area Around Your Fryer Uncluttered
Make sure to keep the area around your fryer clear of any obstacles.
Serious injury can occur if you trip or fall near the fryer. You could be burned by hot shortening that splashes out of the fryer or by falling against the hot metal of the fryer.
Keep the Floor Around Your Fryer Clean Of Shortening
Make sure to keep the floor around your fryer clean of shortening and other liquids.
Serious injury can occur if you slip near your fryer. You could be burned by hot shortening that splashes out of the fryer or by falling against the hot metal of the fryer.
Keep the Lid Closed When The Fryer Is Not In Use
Hot shortening can splash if someone moves the fryer or bumps into it. Serious injury can occur if hot shortening splashes out of the fryer.
Do not lean, sit or stand on the fryer or perform any maintenance or cleaning duties while the fryer or the shortening is hot. You could be burned.
Keep the Casters Locked
To avoid spilling shortening, keep the casters locked. If any shortening spills near your fryer, clean it up immediately.
Do Not Overfill the Fryer with Shortening
Hot shortening and steam may escape and burn you if you put too much shortening in the fryer. Fill the fryer to the fill marks that are inside the fryer pot. Heat the shortening.
6
Do Not Let Any Water Get into The Fryer
Always remove excess moisture from food before placing it into the fryer basket. Water will cause the hot shortening to spatter. You could be burned.
Do Not Overload the Basket With Food
Hot shortening and steam may escape and burn you if you place too much food in the basket.
Always Make Sure the Lid Hook Is Latched When Closing The Fryer
To make sure the lid hook is latched properly, press down the lid until the hook snaps shut. Hot shortening and steam can escape if the lid hook is not latched properly. You could be burned.
Always Tighten the Spin Handle When Closing The Fryer
Hot shortening and steam can escape if you do not tighten the spin handle properly. You could be burned. Line up the orange knobs on the fryer lid handle and the front hook when tightening.
Do Not Over-Tighten the Spin Handle
You could damage the fryer.
Wear Safe Clothing Appropriate To Your Job
Always wear your insulated mitts when handling the fryer basket or touch any hot metal surfaces. You received a pair of insulated mitts with your fryer. If you lose or damage your mitts, you can buy new ones at your local restaurant equipment supply store or from your local BKI Distributor.
Always wear non-skid shoes when working around the fryer or any other equipment that uses shortening. Never wear loose clothing such as neckties or scarves while operating your fryer. Keep loose hair tied back or in a hair net while operating your fryer.
Always wear appropriate personal protection equipment during the filtering process to guard against possible injury from hot oil.
Always wear appropriate personal protection equipment during the boil-out process to guard against possible injury from hot cleaning solution.
7
Never Loosen the Spin Handle Until The Pressure Gauge Is At Zero
Steam may escape suddenly if you loosen the spin handle before the gauge is at zero. If steam escapes suddenly, you could be burned.
After the pressure gauge is at zero, wait 5 seconds. Then loosen the spin handle slowly to open the lid of the fryer. By doing this, the steam will escape slowly and you will not be burned.
Seal the Safety Valve Properly
To seal the safety valve, lift the arm on the side of the valve. Then release it. The valve should snap closed. Hot steam can escape from the valve and you could be burned if you do not seal the valve properly.
Keep Away From the Vent
Hot steam escapes from the vent continuously when you are using your fryer. You could be burned if you get too close to the vent.

Installation
For installation information refer to Gas Pressure Fryer, MODEL FKG-TC, Installation and Operation Manual.
11
Operation
Start-Up (FKG-TC)
1. Turn fryer on by touching the ON button for 3 seconds.
2. Make sure the main drain valve is closed.
3. Fill pot with shortening to about one inch below the mark.
Risk of fire exists if the oil level drops below the minimum oil level. The level of oil within the pot must not fall below 5mm of the maximum oil level.
Use of oil/shortening older than the manufacturers recommendations for life of the oil is prone to surge boiling and flash fires. Follow the oil manufacturers guidelines for lifecycle of oil/shortening.
Overfilling the fryer pot with shortening could lead to serious injury. Ensure that the fryer pot is filled with shortening only to the fill mark when shortening is hot. Do not use any shortening other than what is specified in this manual and do not overfill the fryer pot.
The fryer has a maximum temperature setting of 375º F/191º C. Do not use oil/shortening with a flashpoint less than 554º F (290º C)
Use only high-quality shortening that has low moisture content, a high smoke point and no additives.
12
1. Once the fryer is filled with shortening, press the FRY button.
2. Confirm the oil level by pressing the green check mark.
3. The fryer will start heating up by going into a melt cycle. It will pulse the elements until the oil gets to 225° F (107° C) and then goes into heat mode until it reaches the setpoint temperature. The recipes will be greyed out and inaccessible until the fryer reaches setpoint temperature. (If the burner does not light and you get a Gas Alarm, see the Gas Alarm instructions in the Troubleshooting section.)
13
4. When the fryer is ready to cook the recipes will be activated. IMPORTANT! Before the first cooking operation each day, stir the shortening freely while it is heating
to provide a balanced shortening temperature for excellent results with the first cooking. Failure to do this can result in a crusty skin on the product surface with an undercooked product internally. In addition, in some cases, failure to stir the shortening while it is initially heating may cause the HI­LIMIT safety device to disable the power due to a false overtemperature condition.
