NOTICES
Before you start, please read entire manual.
Kitchen Brains is not liable for any use of product not
in accordance with Kitchen Brains’ installation and
operation instructions.
Before using this equipment, or for any questions on
the operations of the appliance, consult and follow all
instructions and safety warnings found in the appliance
operator’s manual supplied from the manufacturer of
the appliance.
TIMER OPERATING ENVIRONMENT
The solid state components in this controller are designed
to operate reliably in a temperature range up to 158°F/70°C.
Before installing this controller, it should be verified that
the ambient temperature at the mounting location does not

a commercial quality foodservice-approved detergent.
Do not allow oil to build up on any part of the timer.
OPERATING THE TT-500
MAIN OPERATING SCREENS
Your new (FASTIMER.)® TT-500 Touch Timer can be operated
as a timer for your Grill, Fryer, or as a Quality Holding
timer.
Selecting an operating mode is done through the icons in
the Manager’s Programming menu.
NOTE: If neither the Fryer nor Quality Timer icons
appear on the bottom row of action keys, and you see
6 individual aisles or lanes of a grill depicted on the
main screen (as illustrated), then you are in the grill
timer mode.
Active Cook Cycles

NEVER use chemical or abrasive cleaners
on your timer. The timer’s overlay may be
damaged.
PROPER USE OF USB PORT
The USB port is to be used with a USB Memory Stick
for the loading of images to the (FASTIMER.)® TT-500
and downloading of cycle count reports ONLY. No other
devices (i.e., mobile phones, MP3 players, cameras, etc.)
are to be connected to the port. Improper use of the USB
port with unauthorized devices will likely cause damage to
the TT-500, resulting in the warranty becoming void.
