Shake Time is an alarm that sounds while a cook timer is running to prompt an operator
to shake the product in the basket. The default value for shake time on a product key is
zero, which disables this alarm. To enable the shake time alarm, a non-zero value must
be entered for this setting. The shake time value must be less than the cook time.
With the display showing [nSH mm:ss] (where n is the desired product key, SH means
Shake and mm:ss is the time value in minutes:seconds), enter the new shake time
value using the product keys 0-9. NOTE: the time value entered will be the time

alarm will sound to inform the operator to cook more product. The default value for hold
time on a product key is zero, which disables this alarm/timer. To enable the hold
timer/alarm, a non-zero value must be entered for this setting.
With the display showing [nHDh.mm:ss] (where n is the desired product key, HD
means Hold and h.mm:ss is the time value in hours.minutes:seconds), enter
the new hold time value using the product keys 0-9. Press the program key
three times to save and exit out of this programming option. The control
display will show either [READY], [ACT xxx’F], or [FILLING ] and the control will return
to normal operation.
