The Keating computer features:
1-1. MULTI-PROGRAMMABILITY
-- .
Eight different cook cycles may be programmedinto
L
the computer.Eachcook cycle hasaseparate control
with arangebetween
1 -secondand99-minutes, 59-
seconds. Cookingtimes andtemperatures cannot be
altered by kitchen help.
1-2. CONSTANT COOKING TEMPERATURES
A cooking range of 290°F. to 39g°F. may be
programmed intothe computer. Cooking at constant
temperatures provides a more consistent-tasting
product.The computer will automatically adjusttime
for any variations inthe oil temperature.
1-3. PRE-ALARM
One pre-alarmmay beprogrammedfor eachcooking
cycle (cook key).The pre-alarm may be used to:
1. Warn your cook that a cook cycle is near
completion.
2. Notify your cook when a basket needs to be
shaken or a product needs to be turned.
3. Coordinate two products with different cooking
times which must be finished at the sametime.
A pre-alarmof 1 -secondto 99-minutes, 59-seconds
may be programmedfor each cook key.

1-4. HOLD CYCLE
Hold cycle automatically activates at the end of the
cook cycleandindicatestoyour cookwhenanunsold
product should be discarded.
1-5. HILIMIT SAFETY SENSOR
The Hi Limit is a safety device which continually
checks the temperature of the cooking oil. If the oil
rises40° abovethe set temperature, "Hi"will appear
in the display window. If the temperature reaches
425OF., the fryer automatic Hi Limit control is
activated. The burnerdelements will automatically
shut off. The fryer will not operate until the oil has
cooled and the fryer Hi Limit is reset.
NOTE: The reset button is located under the control
panel inside the fryer cabinet.
1-6. MANUAL MODE
A malfunction in the thermostat probe will result in
the word "Probe" appearing in the display window.
Turning off the computer will automatically engage
the back-up thermostat which is set at 350'. To
increase or decrease this temperature, remove the
control panel and adjust the thermostat dial. (See
Fryer Operator's Manual.)
1-7. MELT CYCLE
The computer comes pre-programmed with a melt
cycle. This allows solid shortening to be safely
melted.
The burnerdelements will cycle on for 5-seconds
andoff for 50-seconds, untiltheshortening ismelted.
Atthat point,the burnerdelementswill stay on until
the shortening reaches cooking temperature. Once
cooking temperature has been reached,
[-- - -1 will
appear inthe display window. The meltcycle may be
removed from the program if liquid shortening is
used. (See programming instructions, Section 3-7.)
