food grade grease or silicone lubricant
Do not clean the outside or any other stainless steel part using abrasive
cleaners
5) Check oil level on the back of vat to make sure it is up to cold line (at
room temperature). If not, add oil as necessary. Replace the cooking
oil once a week or more often if necessary. Use a COMMERCIAL
GRADE DEEP FRY COOKING OIL.
Weekly Maintenance
Do not unplug the fryer and always make sure the fryer is turned off
Do not touch heater module, oil vat or oil unless you are sure it has cooled
1) Open front panel by lifting and turning latches. Remove drawer parts and wash in soap
and hot water. Rinse well in hot water and dry.
2) Remove air filter cartridge and set aside (for replacement, see page 20).
Do not wash air filter cartridge
3) Remove grease filter tray from cabinet. Remove grease filter
from tray and drain any oil that has accumulated. Wash both

OWNER’S MANUAL FOR ALL PFA MODELS – 7/11/2012
Page 19 of 49
CLEANING (Continued)
4) Attach oil hose and drain cooking oil from vat into
containers for disposal. Have empty containers
handy for proper disposal of used cooking oil. A
rendering company can help with proper disposal.
5) Remove basket lift, oil vat and heater module
(picture right). Spray parts with oven cleaner,
enclose with plastic bag for at least one hour or
leave overnight if possible. Wash in soap and hot
water and rinse well in hot water. Rinse parts in a
solution of: 1 part white vinegar [5% acetic acid]
and 2 parts water. The vinegar rinse is very
important. It neutralizes soap residue that causes
oil breakdown foaming. Soap residue turns oil
dark and reduces its performance significantly.
Clear water rinse parts. Clean the male and
female terminals on connectors with rubbing
alcohol and cotton swab.
The heater box must NOT be immersed in water or other liquid.
Do not spray male connector
6) Remove spill tray and drain any oil that has accumulated. Wash
in soap and hot water. Rinse well in hot water and dry.
7) With internal components removed, clean cooking and filter
compartments with grease cutting soap or oven cleaner if
necessary. Rinse with damp cloth and dry.
Do not spray female connector
8) Clean countertop and external surfaces.
9) Ensure that blow-off caps on fire extinguisher nozzles are kept in place
10) Re-install all parts (see ASSEMBLY page 11)

TIPS ON DEEP FRYING
Great Food in Less Time
•
Use premium quality commercial deep frying oil. Canola and Soybean oils are
recommended. Do not use household cooking oils from your local supermarket. Poor
quality oils may shorten the life of the air filter cartridge.
• Keep food frozen until ready to fry. Frozen product will absorb less oil during the
cooking process.
• Remove ice from food. Ice results in excess bubbling and spillage of oil out of the
vat.
• Minimize the moisture. Excess moisture extends the
cooking time. Water, ice, sugar and breading all
contribute to shortening the life of the oil.
• Try to reduce the amount of breading that falls off of the food. Breading often has
sugar and other ingredients that will reduce the oil’s life and darken the appearance of
food. Consider filtering the oil to remove the breading particles.
•
Do not overfill the drawer. Excess food may not be cooked properly.
Common Questions
•
How Much Oil to Use?
The PERFECT FRY has a capacity of 2.75 gallons(11L) of oil. Fill the oil vat to the
cold line only.
• How Much to Fry?
Fill the drawer to the top only. The drawer has an approximate capacity of 3 lbs (1.5
kg) of product per cycle. Whatever you can fit in the drawer is what you can fry.
• What is the Ideal Temperature Range for Cooking?
The ideal temperature range for cooking product is between 350°F and 360°F (177°C
and 182°C). The factory default setting for cooking temperature is 350°F (177°C).
• Should Frozen Food Be Defrosted?
DO NOT THAW FROZEN FOOD! Frozen foods only should be put directly into the
fryer in order to minimize moisture.
• Can I Refreeze Frozen Foods?
NO, do not refreeze frozen foods. Foods that are refrozen can absorb more oil, which
will result in a dry, brittle and tasteless product.
MINIMIZE THE MOISTURE
REDUCE THE COOKING TIME
MAXIMIZE THE PROFIT

OWNER’S MANUAL FOR ALL PFA MODELS – 7/11/2012
Page 22 of 49
OIL FACTS
Frying oil is especially formulated to withstand high temperatures. For this reason, you must ensure you are
using the right product. Liquid vegetable shortening is produced by several companies; the oil has an additive
and/or has been formulated to increase the performance during high temperature usage.
DO NOT USE OIL THAT IS RECOMMENDED BOTH FOR SALAD AND FRYING!
Fill the oil vat to the cold line only. The oil expands as it heats and if overfilled, the bottom of the basket will
remain in the oil when in the up/serve position.
How Much to Fry?
• Fill the drawer no higher than the top. Do not overfill the drawer.
• Keep drawer and basket clean and free of breading/batter build up.
• Remove ice crystals or excess water before frying.
• Do not salt or season before frying.
• Remove surplus and/or batter before frying.
• Do not allow frozen food to thaw before frying.
• Drain fried foods before serving.
How Hot is TOO Hot?
Ideal frying temperature range is between 350°F and 360°F (177°C and 182°C). Factory default setting is
350°F (177°C). When frying at too low a temperature, food absorbs more oil which increases oil consumption.
Excessive Oil Usage?
The fried product is absorbing oil. Possible reasons for this include:
• Excess breading or batter, shake off excess before frying.
• Allow basket to drain longer, adjust the drain time.
• Food is being allowed to thaw before frying.
Cleaning Your Fryer?
• Refer to the Cleaning section of this owner’s manual. Remember to clean the basket and drawer daily.
Filtering Your Oil?
The most important procedure you can do is to maintain the oil, extending its life:
• Filter at least once a day, preferably first thing in the morning when the oil is at room temperature.
• Filtering removes all the contaminants from the previous days cooking.
• Clean the oil vat.
Points to Remember:
• Clean the cooking chamber at least once a week and rinse thoroughly.
• Filter oil daily.
• Do not overheat oil.
• Use the standby mode when possible.
• Do not salt product prior to frying.
• Remove ice crystals and moisture before frying.
• Maintain oil level in vat, check to ensure it is at the hot line often.
• The oil is dead when foaming appears continuously on the oil surface
Your oil, product taste, and customers depend on you.

OWNER’S MANUAL FOR ALL PFA MODELS – 7/11/2012
Page 23 of 49
OIL FACTS (Continued)
If the oil temperature is set too high, the food will cook on the exterior and the interior will be undercooked.
When the interior is cooked completely, the exterior will be overdone or burnt. The higher temperature will also
cause the oil to break down faster and smoke.
During slow periods, take advantage of the standby mode which allows the oil to cool down to 275°F (135°C),
prolonging the oil life and reducing energy costs while allowing quick recover time when required.
The oil temperature should not be adjusted when cooking different products. Adjust the cooking time instead.
Frozen Foods
Put frozen foods directly into the fryer. DO NOT THAW FROZEN FOODS! Blot excess water from food before
frying. Remove ice crystals that may be at the bottom of the product bag.
OIL AND WATER DO NOT MIX! Water reacts with oil and makes it break down rapidly resulting in darkening,
smoking and foaming (a process called hydrolysis). Excess water in the oil can cause the following problems:
• Unnecessary temperature drop meaning longer cooking times.
• More energy usage to maintain cooking temperature.
• Excessive splattering inside the fryer resulting in a mess to clean up.
• Decreased life of the air filter and the oil.
Refreezing Frozen Foods?
Frozen foods should be fried frozen. Foods that are refrozen can absorb more oil and make your fried foods
taste greasy. Refrozen food forms excessive ice and these ice crystals can bond food pieces together causing
clumping. Remember:
• Always FRY FOOD FROZEN.
• NEVER REFREEZE thawed food.
• REMOVE ice crystals from product before frying.
• DO NOT accept thawed or refrozen product from supplier.
Excessive Foaming?
The main reason for foaming is improper rinsing of oil vat after cleaning:
• To remove soap residue, rinse 3 times with water after cleaning or neutralize with a water and vinegar
solution (1 part white vinegar to 2 parts water).
• Take care of your oil; use standby mode during slow periods. High temperature and oxygen contribute
to oil breakdown. Filter oil and clean vat at least once a day when using heavily breaded products.
Excessive Smoking/Oil Darkening?
• Oil is too hot, check temperature.
• Inadequate filtering, breading or batter build-up in vat causes oil breakdown, giving food a bitter taste.
• Moisture content is too high. Use precooked frozen products only. Remember to remove ice crystals.
Grease Soaked Food?
• Frozen food is being allowed to thaw before frying.
• Oil is in the advanced stages of breakdown, replace immediately.
• Oil temperature is too low, check temperature.
• Product has too much breading or batter, remove excess.

OIL FACTS (Continued)
Food Not Browning Properly?
• New oil may not brown the product; check color again after a few basket loads.
• Too much product is in the basket; fill no higher than the fill line.
• Product is not frying long enough, follow manufacturers suggested cooking times.
• Oil temperature is too low, check oil temperature.
• Product is frying in excess foam.
• Oil level is too low, check the oil level.
Premature Oil Breakdown?
• Oil is at full temperature during slow periods, use standby mode.
• Oil is contaminated. Never use wire brushes, copper pads or steel wool for cleaning. Use a hard
bristle brush and filter oil regularly. Rinse with water vinegar solution.
• Also, see section; HOW HOT IS TOO HOT?
Statements used in OIL FACTS section are taken from:
• NAFEM Food Service Industry
• Canola Research Foundation

(Cook Time Sensitivity)

TM
adjusts cooking time to compensate for the drop in cooking
oil temperature when a basket of product is placed into the fryer.
CTS
TM
increases cooking time to accommodate for differences in
product moisture content, basket-load size, and initial temperature.
• A proper CTS
TM
setting will ensure a high quality product. For
example; 2 lbs of French fries will cook to the same quality as only
6 ounces of French Fries.
• In addition to having a “global” CTS
TM
setting under the Operation
Options menu for manually entered cook cycles, each preset can
be programmed with its own individual setting. This provides for a
lot of flexibility among different food products.
• Some experimenting with the range of 1 to 9 may be required to achieve optimum quality. A
value of 5 is a good place to start and is the default.
• A setting of 0 means no CTS
TM
whatsoever.

PFS AUTOMATIC EXTINGUISHER
Note: Please refer to the PFS Automatic Extinguisher Installation, Inspection,
Maintenance & Recharge Manual (L20-361) for more detailed information.
1. GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The PFS consists of a cylinder assembly (with
pressure switch and gauge), actuating lever,
fusible link assembly, manual pull station, and
two nozzles. It is designed and acceptable for
use in areas that have ambient conditions
between 32°F (0°C) and 50°C (120°F).
2. OPERATION
Automatic Operation
Upon the detection of a fire, the PFS will
automatically operate. The fusible link rated
at 280ºF (138ºC) will operate when exposed
to the fire and operate the PFS automatic
extinguisher unit. When operated, the PFS
unit will discharge wet chemical agent through
the provided discharge piping and distribution
nozzles.
Manual Operation
The PFS unit can also be operated manually
by pulling the remote lever (to be mounted on
the front of the cooking appliance) that is
clearly marked “In Case Of Fire - PULL”.
IMPORTANT:
The manual pull
handle is to be
pulled ONLY IN
CASE OF FIRE in
the PERFECT
FRYER (use
when the
automatic system
has failed).
NOTE: Power shut-off is also achieved by
system operation. If the pressure in the
cylinder(s) drops below 92 psi (6.3 bar), the
pressure switch opens, deactivating the power
relay causing the appliance to de-energize.
3. INSPECTION & MAINTENANCE
The PFS must be serviced on a regular basis.
Three types of servicing are required:
Monthly
An inspection or “quick check” must be
conducted by the owner/operator and include
verification of the following:
1) The PFS is in its proper location.
2) The PFS shows no physical damage or
condition that might prevent operation.
3) The pressure gauge is in the green
operating range.
4) The maintenance tag is in place and is up
to date.
5) The manual pull is unobstructed.
6) The nozzle blow-off caps are intact and
undamaged.
Semi-Annually
The system must be inspected by authorized
service personnel, as per NFPA 17A and
include the following:
1) A check to see that the hazard has not
changed.
2) Examination of the fusible link, cylinder,
tubing, nozzles and all auxiliary equipment.
3) Fusible links must be replaced at least
annually from the date of installation. They
must be destroyed when removed. They
need to be replaced with the proper rated
link (6GT587). A fusible link loaded with
grease or other material can result in an
excessive delay in actuation.
4) Verification that the agent distribution
piping is not obstructed. Remove the blow-
off caps (6GT014) from the nozzles to
ensure that they are free of grease build-up
and inspect them for deterioration.
Replace them as necessary.
The PFS must be stored above 32°F (0°C)
