Chapter III Instructions
ATTENTION –
•
The fry top has been designed for professional use and should only be used by qualified personnel.
•
The user is allowed to use and clean the fry top.
•
All of the operations regarding installation and extraordinary maintenance (replacing components
and various repairs) must be carried out by qualified technicians. We recommend drawing up an
annual maintenance contract.
3.1 Preliminary warnings before putting into service
Before turning the fry top on, please respect the following precautions and warnings.
•
Check that the fry top is solidly fixed to the table and that the gas pipe is safely installed. Make sure
that nothing obstructs the airflow to the appliance and that the systems for extracting the fumes
produced during cooking are efficient, as is the general ventilation system in the room. Move any
combustibles away from the fry top (plastic cutlery, paper, bottles containing flammable liquids).
•
Use heat-resistant gloves for work on the fry top when it is on and hot.
•
Before you start cooking food, pour little water into the grease drawers (this makes cleaning easier).
Only pull the drawer out of the fry top when it has cooled.
•
Keep an eye on the fry top when it is on and remember to close the gas tap upstream when you
have finished using it.
•
Each of the burners is equipped with a thermocouple that interrupts the flow of gas in the event of
accidental switching off of the flame; it is connected to the gas tap.
3.2
Turning the fry top on and off
a)
Turning the appliance on
•
Open the gas tap installed upstream.
•
Light the pilot burner by pressing and turning the gas knob anticlockwise from the off position ( ) to
the maximum power (high flame) (Fig. 9). At the same time, with your other hand, press the button of
the piezoelectric igniter repeatedly until the burner lights. Hold the knob for roughly 10 seconds so
the flame heats the thermocouple and prevents this from cutting off the gas and then release the
knob checking that the flame of the burner stays lit and stable. If it doesn't, repeat the operation.
•
When the burner is steadily lit, you can adjust the idle power by turning the throttle to the position of
the small flame.
b)
Turning the appliance off.
•
To turn the burner off, turn the gas knob clockwise from the set position to the off position ( ).
•
At the end of work, remember to close the gas tap upstream.
ATTENTION – If it becomes hard to turn the gas taps, these will need lubricating. Please contact a
specialised plumber.
3.3
Cleaning and routine maintenance
The fry top must be cleaned regularly to guarantee the best performance and trouble free use. In the case of
an anomaly, please don't try to solve the problem on your own, contact the nearest service centre who will

be carried out by specialised personnel. To clean the fry top, proceed as follows, observing the warnings:

-
Ignition plug faulty or out of place.
-
Main injector or burner blocked.
-
Gas tap faulty.
-
-
The thermocouple is faulty or out of place, so it isn't heated
sufficiently by the flame.
