BIELA14 SERIES GEN II LOV™ ELECTRIC FRYER
CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION
1.1 General
Read the instructions in this manual thoroughly before attempting to operate this equipment. This
manual covers all configurations of McDonald’s BIELA14 LOV™ models. The fryers in this model
family have most parts in common, and when discussed as a group, will be referred to as “LOV™
fryers.
Although similar in appearance to the RE14 McDonald’s electric fryers, the BIELA14 fryers feature
a low oil volume frypot, automatic oil top off and an automatic intermittent filtration unit. The
Euro-Look design incorporates a rounded topcap and a large round drain, which ensures that fries
and other debris, will be washed into the filter pan. The BIELA14 LOV™ fryers are controlled with
an M3000 computer. Fryers in this series come in full- or split-vat arrangements, and can be
purchased in batteries of up to five fryers.
1.2 Safety Information
Before attempting to operate your unit, read the instructions in this manual thoroughly.
Throughout this manual, you will find notations enclosed in double-bordered boxes similar to the
one below.
DANGER
Hot oil causes severe burns. Never attempt to move a fryer containing hot oil or to
transfer hot oil from one container to another.
CAUTION boxes contain information about actions or conditions that may cause or result in a
malfunction of your system.
WARNING boxes contain information about actions or conditions that may cause or result in
damage to your system, and which may cause your system to malfunction.
DANGER boxes contain information about actions or conditions that may cause or result in
injury to personnel, and which may cause damage to your system and/or cause your system to
malfunction.
The BIELA14 LOV™ fryers incorporate a high-temperature detection feature which shuts off power
to the elements should the temperature controls fail.
NOTE: The Frymaster BIELA14 fryer requires a start-up, demonstration and training
before normal restaurant operations can begin.
