NOTICE TO OWNERS OF UNITS EQUIPPED WITH COMPUTERS
U.S.
This device complies with Part 15 of the FCC rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: 1) This device may not cause harmful interference, and 2) This device must accept
any interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation. While
this device is a verified Class A device, it has been shown to meet the Class B limits.
CANADA
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A or B limits for radio noise emissions as set
out by the ICES-003 standard of the Canadian Department of Communications.
Cet appareil numerique n’emet pas de bruits radioelectriques depassany les limites de classe A
et B prescrites dans la norme NMB-003 edictee par le Ministre des Communcations du Canada.
DANGER
Improper installation, adjustment, maintenance or service, and unauthorized alterations or
modifications can cause property damage, injury, or death. Read the installation, operating,
and service instructions thoroughly before installing or servicing this equipment.
DANGER
The front ledge of this appliance is not a step! Do not stand on the appliance. Serious injury
can result from slips or contact with the hot cooking oil.
DANGER

Hotline at 1-800-551-8633.
2-3
1. Once the fryer has been positioned at the frying station, use a carpenter’s level placed across the
top of the frypot to verify that the unit is level, both side-to-side and front-to-back.
To level fryers equipped with legs, the bottom of the legs can be screwed out up to one inch for
leveling. Legs should also be adjusted so that the fryer(s) are at the proper height in the frying station.
For fryers equipped with casters, there are no built-in leveling devices. The floor where the
fryers are installed must be level.
When the fryer is leveled in its final position, install the restraints provided with the unit to limit
its movement so that it does not depend on or transmit stress to the electrical conduit or
connection. Install the restraints in accordance with the provided instructions (see illustration
below). If the restraints are disconnected for service or other reasons, they must be reconnected
before the fryer is used.
DANGER
Adequate means must be provided to limit the movement of this appliance without
depending on or transmitting stress to the electrical conduit. A restraint kit is
provided with the fryer. If the restraint kit is missing contact your local KES.
NOTE: If you need to relocate a fryer installed with legs, remove all weight from each leg
before moving. If a leg becomes damaged, contact your service agent for immediate repair or
replacement.
DANGER
Hot oil can cause severe burns. Avoid contact. Under all circumstances, oil must be
removed from the fryer before attempting to move it to avoid oil spills, falls and
severe burns. This fryer may tip and cause personal injury if not secured in a
stationary position.
2. Close fryer drain-valve(s) and fill frypot with water to the bottom oil level line.
3. Boil out frypot(s) in accordance with the instructions in Section 4-11 of this manual.
4. Drain, clean, and fill frypot(s) with cooking oil. (See Equipment Setup and Shutdown
Procedures in Chapter 3.)

CHAPTER 3: OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
3–1
3.1 Equipment Setup and Shutdown Procedures
Setup
DANGER
Never operate the appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled to the fill line
with water or oil before energizing the elements. Failure to do so will result in irreparable
damage to the elements and may cause a fire.
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
The FPEL14/17/22 is not intended to use solid shortening. Use only liquid shortening with
this fryer. The use of solid shortening will clog the oil lines. The oil capacity of the
FPEL14/17/22 fryer is 31 lbs. (3.7 gallons/14 liters) at 70°F (21°C).
Prior to filling frypots with oil ensure all drains are closed.
1. Fill the frypot with cooking oil to the bottom OIL L EVEL 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 bottom line;
overflow may occur as heat expands the oil.
2. Ensure that the power cord(s) is/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 power is switched on. Some models are equipped with a master switch located
behind the fryer door cabinet on the front panel of the component box, next to the fuse. OFF is
displayed on the computer.
4. Ensure that the computer is switched ON.
5. Ensure that the oil level is at the topOIL LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking temperature.
Shutdown
1. Turn the fryer off.
2. Filter the oil and clean the fryers (See Chapters 5 and 6).
3. Place the frypot covers on the frypots.
3.2 Operation
If this is the first time the fryer is being used, refer to the frypot boil-out procedure on Page 6-2.
This fryer is equipped with CM-7 computers (illustrated below). Refer to the CM7 Computer Operating
Instructions in Chapter 4 for the computer programming and operating procedures.
CM7 COMPUTER
Refer to Chapter 5 of this manual for operating instructions for the built-in filtration system.
3–2
3.3 Oil Attendant™ Automatic Top-Off
When the Oil Attendant™ top-off oil
system is in place on the fryer, oil is
continually topped off in the frypots from
a reservoir in the cabinet. The reservoir
holds a 35 pound box of oil. In a typical
operation this will last approximately two
days before changing. Components of the
system are annotated at the right (see
Figure 1).
NOTE: The system is intended to top
off the frypots, not fill them. The frypots
will require manual filling upon startup
and after boil out.
3.3.1 Prepare the System for Use
To prepare the system for its initial
operation remove cross brace (see Figure
2). Do not replace the screws. Install the
JIB basket shipped in the accessories pack
(see Figure 3). Follow these instructions
to prepare the cabinet for the installation
Figure 2 Figure 3
of the first box of oil and subsequent
boxes of oil.
3.3.2 Install the Oil Reservoir
Remove the original lid from the oil container and foil liner. Replace with the provided cap, which has
connected suction hardware. Ensure the feeder tube from the cap reaches to the bottom of the oil
container.
Place the oil container inside the cabinet and slide it into place (as shown on the following page).
Avoid catching the suction hardware on the cabinet interior as the container is placed in the fryer.
The system is now ready for operation. As the fryer heats to preprogrammed temperatures, the system
will energize and then slowly add oil to the frypot as needed, until the oil reaches an optimal level.
3.3.3 Routine Oil Changes
When the oil reservoir level is low, the Oil
Butler
®
, a yellow LED, is activated (see
Figure 4). Once the reservoir is refilled
and/or replaced, pressing the reset button
above the JIB turns the LED off.
Figure 4

1. Open the cabinet and slide the JIB
from the cabinet (see Figure 5).
2. Remove the cap and pour any remaining oil in the
container into all fry vats equally (see Figure 6).
