Frontline or RTI systems. These instructions may not be applicable to other bulk oil systems.
DANGER
Keep all items out of drains. Closing actuators may cause damage or injury.
DANGER
Remove all drops of water from the frypot before filling with oil. Failure to do so will cause
spattering of hot liquid when the oil is heated to cooking temperature.
WARNING
Do not add HOT or USED oil to a JIB.
WARNING
NEVER drain boil out or cleaning solution into a shortening disposal unit (SDU), a built-in filtration unit, a
portable filter unit, or an OQS (Oil Quality Sensor). These units are not intended for this purpose, and will
be damaged by the solution and void the warranty.
DANGER
When draining oil into a disposal unit, do not fill above the maximum fill line located on the container.
DANGER
Allow oil to cool to 100°F (38°C) before draining into an appropriate METAL container for disposal.
DANGER
When draining oil into an appropriate SDU or METAL container, ensure the container will hold at least
FOUR gallons (15 liters) or more for FQE30 or FQG30 fryers, or EIGHT gallons (30 liters) or more for
1814E or 1814G fryers. Otherwise oil could overflow and can cause injury.
DANGER
When draining boil out solution oil into an appropriate METAL container, ensure the container will hold at
least FOUR gallons (15 liters) or more for FQE30 or FQG30 fryers, or EIGHT gallons (30 liters) or more for
1814E or 1814G fryers. Otherwise boil out solution could overflow and can cause injury.
DANGER
Open the filter pan slowly to avoid splashing of hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.
DANGER
Ensure that the frypot and filter pan are completely dry and free of water before filling with oil. Failure to
do so will cause splattering of hot liquid when the oil is heated to cooking temperature.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of the inherent hazards of
operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects of oil filtration, draining and cleaning
procedures.
DANGER
Do not drain more than one frypot at a time into the built-in filtration unit to avoid overflow and spillage of
hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.
WARNING
Never drain water into the filter pan. Water will damage the filter pump
WARNING
Ensure a filter paper/pad is in place prior to filtering, draining or disposing of oil. Failure to insert a filter
paper/pad may result in clogged lines and/or pumps.
DANGER
DO NOT drain more than one full frypot or two split frypots into the SDU at one time to avoid overflow and
spillage of hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.
WARNING
Never operate the filter system without oil in the system.
WARNING
Never use the filter pan to transport old oil to the disposal area.
WARNING
Never leave the fryer unattended during the boil out process. If the solution overflows, press the ON/OFF
switch to the OFF position immediately.

zero. The desired temperature changes are entered based on when they are to occur relative to the remaining cooking time.
The time entries for temperature changes are for the time
remaining in the cook cycle, not the time elapsed. The graphic
below breaks down a 13-minute cook cycle. It’s best to create a
similar table of time/temperature changes before beginning the
programming process.
Step 1 sets total cook time and initial setpoint.
Step 2 sets the duration of the first cooking
segment, 2 minutes, and the setpoint of the
first temperature change.
Step 3 sets the duration of the second cooking
segment, 4 minutes, and the setpoint of the
second temperature change.
Step 4 sets the duration of the third cooking
segment, 3 minutes, and the setpoint of the
third temperature change.
The four remaining minutes in the cook time elapse
at the final temperature. No entry is required to use
the final minutes

and holding the Filter button until the display becomes Filter Menu. If fryer temp is below 300°F (149°C) the, controller
displays “WAIT FOR FILTER” or “FILTER BUSY”. The controller must be on and at or above 300°F (149°C) to execute a
Filter, a Clean and Filter or a Polish. All messages need to be confirmed or cleared on all controllers prior to starting any
filtration process. NOTE: Some functions are only available when the controller is on, while others are only available
when the controller is OFF. Some are available when it is on or off. See menu tree on page 1-2.

CHAPTER 2: FILTERQUICK™
OPERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING
2.1 Introduction
This chapter provides an easy reference guide to some of the common problems that may occur
during the operation of your equipment. The troubleshooting guides that follow are intended to help
you correct, or at least accurately diagnose, problems with your equipment. Although the chapter
covers the most common problems reported, you may encounter problems that are not covered. In
such instances, the Frymaster Technical Services staff will make every effort to help you identify
and resolve the problem.
When troubleshooting a problem, always use a process of elimination starting with the simplest
solution and working through to the most complex. Most importantly, always try to establish a clear
idea of why a problem has occurred. Part of your corrective action involves taking steps to ensure
that it doesn’t happen again. If a controller malfunctions because of a poor connection, check all
other connections while you’re at it. If a fuse continues to blow, find out why. Always keep in mind
that failure of a small component may often be indicative of potential failure or incorrect functioning
of a more important component or system.
If you are in doubt as to the proper action to take, do not hesitate to call the Frymaster Technical
Service Department or your local Frymaster Authorized Servicer for assistance.
Before calling a servicer or the Frymaster HOTLINE (1-800-551-8633):
Verify that electrical cords are plugged in and that circuit breakers are on.
Verify that gas line quick-disconnects are properly connected.
Verify that any gas line cutoff valves are open.
Verify that frypot drain valves are fully closed.
Have your fryer’s model and serial numbers ready to give to the technician assisting
you.
DANGER
Hot oil will cause severe burns. Never attempt to move this appliance when filled
with hot cooking oil or to transfer hot cooking oil from one container to another.
DANGER
This equipment should be unplugged when servicing, except when electrical circuit
tests are required. Use extreme care when performing such tests.
This appliance may have more than one electrical power supply connection point.
Disconnect all power cords before servicing.
Inspection, testing, and repair of electrical components should be performed by an
factory authorized servicer only.
