Error Codes and Warning Codes

Error Codes

In the event of a system failure the control board displays an error message. These messages are coded as E which represents an error, a number designation and error message, such as E-4 CPU TO HOT. Also, a constant tone sounds. To silence the tone, press the Checkmark button. Use the following table to interpret and correct an error code.

Error

Cause

Correction

E-1 LOW OIL IN POT

The top heating element where the probe is located is getting hotter than it would if the element were submerged in oil.

If the Protection Probe monitoring function determines that the oil level is too low below the main probe it generates an E-1 error code and displays the message LOW OIL IN POT!, CHECK OIL LEVEL. Fill the vat with oil to the full line. If the error persists call for service.

E-4 CPU TOO HOT

Control board overheating.

Remove heat from the fryer, the control board is getting too hot. Once the front panel cools down the controls should return to normal operation. If the error persists call for service.

E-5 OIL TOO HOT

Oil overheating.

Remove heat from the fryer. Once the unit cools down, the controls should return to normal operation. If the error persists call for service.
