Clean-Out Mode

Burn Risk

Do not close lid with water and/or cleaner in vat. Water under pressure becomes superheated. When lid is opened, escaping water and steam can result in severe burns.

In the event of cleaning solution boil over, immediately turn the power switch to OFF. Do not try to contain by closing the fryer lid or severe burns could result.

The Computron 8000 has a Clean-Out Mode (i.e. heated water clean-out) to clean the vat upon initial start-up and every change of oil. This is a general overview. Follow the detailed steps in Cleaning the Vat.

  1. When heating the cleaning solution and vinegar solutions, turn the COOK/ PUMP switch to COOK.

  2. When the fryer starts the Melt Cycle, press and hold the Idle/Clean button then CLEAN OUT ?, 1= YES 2=NO displays.

  3. Press Product button 1 to start Clean-Out Mode. The fryer displays *CLEAN-OUT MODE* and heats up to a pre-programmed temperature, up to 195F (91C), then automatically begins a preset timed countdown.

  4. Use the Up and Down arrow buttons, if necessary, to adjust the temperature and keep the cleaning solution from boiling over. See Special Program Modes SP-10 and SP-11 to preset the temperature and time.

NOTE: In situations where restaurant policy does not allow a heated water clean-out, the SP-10 Clean-out Minutes setting in Special Program Mode can be changed to NO/ OFF, and the Clean-out Mode will not be offered to the user.
