TROUBLESHOOTING OPERATIONAL PROBLEMS
NOTE: The fryer has two independent burner systems, whose only common components are in
the control system (CONTROLLER, TEMPERATURE PROBE and HI-LIMIT THERMOSTAT).
Troubleshooting efforts should isolate a problem to either: an individual burner system; or, to the
control system.
