All Valentine fryers are fitted with a safety thermostat for each tank. These safety thermostats
are placed in the heating element box at the back of the fryer. The red reset button [15] goes
up underneath the housing.
It is triggered:
when the oil temperature exceeds 230°C
when the capillary tube is damaged
when the temperature falls below 0°C
or when the appliance is not being used properly:
when it is being heated without oil or the oil level is too low
when it is being drained without triggering the switch
when a block of fat is being melted directly on the heating element
To reset the fryer:
Stop the fryer
Allow the fryer to cool down
place it on the lid). Until the thermostat bulb [13] attached to the heating element cooled
down, you cannot reset the safety thermostat
Press down firmly on the red button
