TYPICAL CONFIGURATION (BIELA314 SHOWN)
NOTE: The appearance of your fryer may differ slightly from that
shown depending upon configuration and date of manufacture.
3–2
3.1 Equipment Setup and Shutdown Procedures
Setup
DANGER
Never operate the appliance with an empty frypot. The frypot must be filled to the fill line
with water or oil before energizing the elements. Failure to do so will result in irreparable
damage to the elements and may cause a fire.
DANGER
Remove all drops of water from the frypot before filling with oil. Failure to do so will cause
spattering of hot liquid when the oil is heated to cooking temperature.
WARNING
The BIELA14 is not intended to use solid shortening. Use only liquid shortening with this
fryer. The use of solid shortening will clog the oil lines. The oil capacity of the BIELA14
fryer is 31 lbs. (3.7 gallons/14 liters) for a full-vat and 15.5 lbs. (2.5 gallons/7 liters) for a dual-
vat at 70°F (21°C).
1. Fill the frypot with cooking oil to the bottom OIL LEVEL line located on the rear of the frypot. This will
allow for oil expansion as heat is applied. Do not fill cold oil any higher than the bottom line; overflow
may occur as heat expands the oil. For bulk oil systems see Section 4.11.4 on page 4-22 for instructions
to fill the vat from bulk.
2. Ensure that the power cord(s) is/are plugged and locked (if applicable) into the appropriate receptacle(s).
Verify that the face of the plug is flush with the outlet plate, with no portion of the prongs visible.
3. Ensure that the power is switched on. Some models are equipped with a master switch located behind the
fryer door cabinet on the front panel of the component box, next to the fuse.
4. Ensure that the computer is switched ON. When the computer is switched on, the fryer will begin
heating and will display MLT-CYCL alternating with LOW TEMP until the fryer temperature reaches
180°F (82°C). LOW TEMP is displayed until within 15° of setpoint. Once the fryer reaches setpoint,
the computer display changes to the product or dashed lines and the fryer is ready for use.
5. Ensure that the oil level is at the top OIL LEVEL line when the oil is at its cooking temperature.
Shutdown
1. Turn the fryer off.
2. Filter the oil and clean the fryers (See Chapters 5 and 6).
3. Place the frypot covers on the frypots.
3.2 Operation
This fryer is equipped with M3000 computers (illustrated below). Refer to the M3000 Computer Operating
Instructions in Chapter 4 for the computer programming and operating procedures.

3.3 Low Oil Volume Automatic Refill
When the Low Oil Volume (LOV™)
system is in place on the fryer, the frypot
oil levels are continually checked and
topped off as necessary from a reservoir in
the cabinet. The reservoir holds a 35
pound box of oil. In a typical operation
this will last approximately two days.
Components of the system are annotated
at the right (see Figure 1).
NOTE: The system is intended to top
off the frypots, not fill them. The frypots
will require manual filling upon startup
and after deep clean (boil-out).
3.3.1 Prepare the System for Use
To prepare the system for its initial
operation, remove cross brace (see Figure
2). Using the screws removed from the
cross brace, attach the JIB basket shipped
in the accessories pack (see Figure 3). If
using the solid shortening option see
Appendix B.
Figure 2 Figure 3
3.3.2 Install the Oil Reservoir
Remove the original lid from the oil container and foil liner. Replace with the provided cap, which has
connected suction hardware. Ensure the feeder tube from the cap reaches to the bottom of the oil
container.
Place the oil container inside the cabinet and slide it into place (as shown on the following page).
Avoid catching the suction hardware on the cabinet interior as the container is placed in the fryer.
The system is now ready for operation.
3.3.3 Routine Oil Changes
When the oil reservoir level is low, an
orange LED is activated (see Figure 4).
Once the reservoir is refilled and/or
replaced, press and hold the orange reset
button above the JIB until the orange LED
is no longer illuminated. If using solid

Welcome to the M3000, a computer that retains the one-button ease of the M2000 and 100B and the
utility of 40-product menu capability. The computer is easy to use. One button push starts a cook
cycle for an item cooked in a dedicated vat. The same flexible computer on a multi-product vat
requires only two button pushes to
launch a cook cycle. Just choose a
menu item on a product button and
press, and then press a cook channel
button under the display showing
the desired item. The computer can
move seamlessly from McNuggets
to Crispy Chicken to any added
menu item.
In a typical store setting, the
M3000s on the three-vat fry station
display FR FRIES (shown above)
and will launch a cook cycle with
one push of a cook channel button.
On the chicken/filet station, the
LED display shows dashed lines.
To launch a cook cycle, press a
product button and then press the
cook channel button that
corresponds with the location of the
dropped basket. By pressing the product button for McChicken, McChick will appear in the display.
Just press the cook channel button corresponding to the location of the appropriate dropped basket.
The M3000 will operate with electric and gas fryers, both full- and split-vat.

lists or by toggling between choices.
Left Display Right Display
During programming if a button is not pushed within one minute, the computer returns to operation
mode.
4.7.2 Filter, Temperature and Info Buttons
The < FLTR and FLTR > buttons (see Figure 1) are used to filter the left and right vats of a split
vat or a full vat fryer on demand. The FLTR buttons, if pressed once displays the number of cook
cycles remaining until a filtration prompt. When the FLTR button is pressed twice, the date and
time of the last filter is displayed. The TEMP button, if pressed once while the fryer is on,
displays current vat temperature on both sides. If the TEMP button is pressed twice while the fryer
is on, it shows the setpoint temperatures of the vats. If the fryer is off, the display shows the current
versions of software. The INFO button (see Figure 1), if pressed once when the fryer is on, shows
the recovery time for each vat from the last test. Recovery is the time required for the fryer to raise
the temperature of the oil 50°F (28°C) between 250°F (121°C) and 300°F (149°C). Maximum
recovery time should not exceed 1:40 for electric or 2:25 for gas. If the INFO button is pressed and
held for three seconds it shows information such as usage, filter statistics and last cook cycles (see
page 4-34 for more details on the INFO button).

CHAPTER 5: FILTRATION INSTRUCTIONS
5.1 Introduction
The FootPrint Pro filtration system allows the oil in one frypot to be safely and efficiently filtered
while the other frypots in a battery remain in operation.
Section 5.2 covers preparation of the filter system for use. Operation of the system is covered in
Section 5.3.
WARNING
The on-site supervisor is responsible for ensuring that operators are made aware of
the inherent hazards of operating a hot oil filtering system, particularly the aspects
of oil filtration, draining and cleaning procedures.
WARNING
The filter pad or paper MUST be replaced daily.
5.2 Preparing the Filter for Use
1. Pull the filter pan out from the cabinet
and remove the crumb tray, hold-down
ring, filter pad (or paper), and filter
screen. (See Figure 1) Clean all metal
parts with a solution of All Purpose
Concentrate and hot water then dry
thoroughly.
The pan cover must not be removed
except for cleaning, interior access, or to
allow a shortening disposal unit
(MSDU) to be positioned under the
drain. If using an MSDU built before
January 2004 see instructions on page 4-
16.
2. Inspect the filter pan connection fitting
to ensure that both O-rings are in good
condition. (See Figure 2)
Figure 1
Figure 2
Inspect the filter
connection fitting
O-rings.
5-2
3. Then in reverse order, place the metal filter screen in the center of the bottom of the pan, then lay
a filter pad over the screen, ensuring that the rough side of the pad is up. Make sure that the pad
is in between the embossed ridges of the filter pan. Then position the hold down ring on top of
the pad. If using filter paper, lay a sheet of filter paper over the top of the pan overlapping on all
sides. Position the hold down ring over the filter paper and lower the ring into the pan, allowing
the paper to fold up and around the ring as it is pushed to the bottom of the pan. Then sprinkle 1
packet (8-ounces) of filter powder over the filter paper.
4. Reinstall the crumb tray at the front of the pan. (See Figure 1)
DO NOT USE FILTER POWDER WITH THE PAD!
5. Push the filter pan back into the fryer, positioning it under the fryer. Ensure “A” is displayed on
the MIB board. The filtration system is now ready for use.
DANGER
Do not drain more than one frypot at a time into the built-in filtration unit to avoid
overflow and spillage of hot oil that may cause severe burns, slipping and falling.
DANGER
The crumb tray in fryers equipped with a filter system must be emptied into a
fireproof container at the end of frying operations each day. Some food particles can
spontaneously combust if left soaking in certain shortening material.
WARNING
Do not bang fry baskets or other utensils on the fryer’s joiner strip. The strip is
present to seal the joint between the fry vessels. Banging fry baskets on the strip to
dislodge shortening will distort the strip, adversely affecting its fit. It is designed for
a tight fit and should only be removed for cleaning.
5.3 Auto Intermittent Filtration (AIF)
Auto Intermittent Filtration (AIF) is a feature that, after a number of preset cook cycles or time, will
automatically filter frypots.
An M3000 computer controls the Auto Intermittent Filtration
(AIF) system on the LOV™ fryer. After a preset number of cook
cycles or time the computer displays FIltEr now?
alternating with YES NO. The blue LED is activated
simultaneously. The LED will turn off once a filtration cycle is
started. If NO is selected or a cook cycle is started, the blue LED
will go off and will prompt again soon to filter the oil.
1. Press 9 (1) YES to start filtration and 8 (2) NO to cancel
filtration.
5-3
If the oil level is too low, the computer displays OIL LEVEL TOO LOW alternating with
YES. Press 9 (1) YES to acknowledge issue and return to idle cook mode. Check to see if the
JIB is low on oil. If JIB is not low and this continues to occur, contact your ASA.
If YES is chosen, SKIM VAT is displayed for ten seconds changing to cOnfIRm alternating
with YES NO. Skim the crumbs from the oil with a front to back motion, removing as many
crumbs as possible from each vat. This is critical to optimizing usable oil life and quality in the oil.
Note: If NO is chosen in response to either FILTER now or CONFIRM, filtering is
cancelled and the fryer resumes normal operation. The FILTER now prompt is
displayed once the FILTER AFTER count is satisfied. This sequence repeats until yes is
chosen.
If the filter pan is not fully engaged, the computer displays INSERT PAN. Once the filter pan is
pushed fully into place, the computer displays SKIM VAT.
2. When 9 (1) YES is chosen, the auto filtration cycle is started. The fryer displays
DRAINING, WASHING and FILLING during the process.
Note: Simultaneous filtering of multiple vats does not occur.
Once filtering is complete the computer display changes to low temp until the fryer reaches
setpoint.
Once fryer reaches setpoint and the computer display changes to the product name or dashed lines,
the fryer is ready for use.
The complete filtering process takes roughly four minutes.
NOTE: If during filtration the filter pan is pulled, the filtration process stops and resumes once pan
is reseated into place.
DANGER

CHAPTER 6: PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE
6.1 Cleaning the Fryer
DANGER
The crumb tray in fryers equipped with a filter system must be emptied into a fireproof
container at the end of frying operations each day. Some food particles can spontaneously
combust if left soaking in certain shortening material.
DANGER
Never attempt to clean the fryer during the frying process or when the frypot is filled with hot
oil. If water comes in contact with oil heated to frying temperature, it will cause spattering of
the oil, which can result in severe burns to nearby personnel.
WARNING
Use McDonald’s All Purpose Concentrate. Read the directions for use and precautionary
statements before use. Particular attention must be paid to the concentration of cleaner and
the length of time the cleaner remains on the food contact surfaces.
6.1.1 Clean Inside and Outside of the Fryer Cabinet – Daily
Clean inside the fryer cabinet with a dry, clean cloth. Wipe all accessible metal surfaces and components to
remove accumulated oil and dust.
Clean the outside of the fryer cabinet with a clean, damp cloth soaked with McDonald’s All Purpose

element wires are not binding and/or chafing.
● Verify the heating-element amp-draw is within the allowed range as indicated on the appliance’s
rating plate.
● Verify that the temperature and high-limit probes are properly connected, tightened and functioning
properly, and that mounting hardware and probe guards are present and properly installed.
● Verify that component box and contactor box components (i.e. computer/controller, relays, interface
boards, transformers, contactors, etc.) are in good condition and free from oil and other debris.
● Verify that component box and contactor box wiring connections are tight and that wiring is in good
condition.
● Verify that all safety features (i.e. contactor shields, reset switches, etc.) are present and functioning
properly.
● Verify that the frypot is in good condition and free of leaks and that the frypot insulation is in
serviceable condition.
● Verify that all wiring harnesses and connections are tight and in good condition.
Built-In Filtration System
● Inspect all oil-return and drain lines for leaks and verify that all connections are tight.
● Inspect the filter pan for leaks and cleanliness. If there is a large accumulation of crumbs in the
crumb basket, advise the owner/operator that the crumb basket should be emptied into a fireproof
container and cleaned daily.
● Verify that all O-rings and seals are present and in good condition. Replace O-rings and seals if
worn or damaged.
● Check filtration system integrity as follows:
− Verify that filter pan cover is present and properly installed.
− With the filter pan empty, place each vat into fill vat from drain pan selection, one at a time.
Verify proper functioning of each oil return valve by activating the filter pump using the return to
pan selection. Verify that the pump activates and that bubbles appear in the cooking oil of the
associated frypot.
− Verify that the filter pan is properly prepared for filtering with a clean filter pad, then drain a
frypot of oil heated to 350°F (177°C) into the filter pan by using the drain to pan selection (see
page 4-20). Now using the fill vat from drain pan selection (see page 4-21), allow all oil to return

CHAPTER 7: OPERATOR TROUBLESHOOTING
7.1 Introduction
This section provides an easy reference guide to some of the common problems that may occur
during the operation of this equipment. The troubleshooting guides that follow are intended to help
correct, or at least accurately diagnose, problems with this equipment. Although the chapter covers
the most common problems reported, you may encounter problems that are not covered. In such
instances, the Frymaster Technical Services staff will make every effort to help you identify and
resolve the problem.
When troubleshooting a problem, always use a process of elimination starting with the simplest
solution and working through to the most complex. Never overlook the obvious – anyone can forget
to plug in a cord or fail to close a valve completely. Most importantly, always try to establish a clear
idea of why a problem has occurred. Part of any corrective action involves taking steps to ensure
that it doesn’t happen again. If a controller malfunctions because of a poor connection, check all
other connections, too. If a fuse continues to blow, find out why. Always keep in mind that failure
of a small component may often be indicative of potential failure or incorrect functioning of a more
important component or system.
Before calling a service agent or the Frymaster HOTLINE (1-800-24-FRYER):
• Verify that electrical cords are plugged in and that circuit breakers are on.
• Verify that frypot drain valves are fully closed.
• Have your fryer’s model and serial numbers ready to give to the technician assisting
you.
DANGER
Hot oil will cause severe burns. Never attempt to move this appliance when filled
with hot oil or to transfer hot oil from one container to another.
DANGER
This equipment should be unplugged when servicing, except when electrical circuit
tests are required. Use extreme care when performing such tests.
This appliance may have more than one electrical power supply connection point.
Disconnect all power cords before servicing.
Inspection, testing, and repair of electrical components should be performed by an

APPENDIX A: RTI (BULK OIL) INSTRUCTIONS
A.1.1 Bulk Oil Systems
Bulk oil systems have large oil storage tanks,
typically located in the rear of the restaurant,
that are connected to a rear manifold on the
fryer. Waste oil is pumped from the fryer, via
the fitting located on the bottom, to the
disposal tanks and fresh oil is pumped from
the tanks, thru the fitting located on the top, to
the fryer (see Figure 1). Remove the plate
exposing the RTI connection and connect the
RTI connection to the fryer (see Figure 2). Set
the fryer to bulk through the setup mode and
set all computers to bulk oil. See Section 4.9
on page 4-9. It is imperative that the fryer
system be completely power cycled after
changing setup from JIB to Bulk.
Figure 1
Figure 2
The LOV™ fryers, equipped for use with bulk
oil systems, have an onboard fresh oil jug
supplied by RTI. Remove the cap and insert
the standard fitting into the jug with the metal
cap resting on the lip of the jug. The oil is
pumped in and out of the jug through the same
fitting. (see Figure 3).
Figure 3
The momentary switch used to reset the JIB low LED is also
used to fill the jug in an RTI system. After resetting the JIB
LED, pressing and holding the momentary switch, located
above the JIB, allows the operator to fill the jug from the bulk
oil storage tank (see Figure 4).
To fill the jug, press and hold the JIB reset button until the jug
is full, then release.*
NOTE: Do NOT overfill the jug.
Figure 4
For instructions on filling the vat from bulk, see Section
4.11.4 page 4-22.
* NOTE: It takes approximately twelve seconds from the time the fill JIB button is pressed until the RTI pump
starts. It may take up to 20 seconds before the level in the JIB begins to rise. Typically it takes
approximately three minutes to fill the JIB. It takes approximately one minute to fill a split vat and
two minutes to fill a full vat.

APPENDIX B: JIB Preparation with Solid Shortening Option
1. Open right door of fryer and remove brace
in JIB cabinet.
2. Position melter in front of cabinet. Loosen
bracket on left side of melter, if necessary,
to ease placement in the cabinet.
3. Use the provided screws to attach the
melter to existing holes in the interior rails
of the fryer cabinet on both sides. See
figures 1 and 2.
4. On the back side of the melter, attach the
white two-pin connectors and plug in the
black connector to the outlet box shown in
figure 3.
5. Position the oil reservoir in the melter,
sliding the oil pickup tube into the female
receptacle. Position the front lid and the
front of the melter. See figure 4.
Figure 1: Position the melter in the cabinet and attach with
provided screws to the cabinet interior.

APPENDIX C: Solid Shortening Melter Use
• Ensure shortening melter is on.
• Fill melter with shortening.
• Allow 2-3 hours for solid shortening to
melt. DO NOT attempt to use the top off
system with unmelted oil in the top off
system. The low oil reservoir light will
come on if the fryer calls for oil before
the shortening in the melter is liquid.
• Once the shortening is fully melted,
press and hold the orange reset button
to turn off the light and reset the top off
system.
• DO NOT ADD hot oil to the shortening
melter. The temperature of the oil
reservoir should not exceed 140°F. Add
small amounts of solid shortening to the reservoir to ensure it has sufficient oil to
operate the top-off system.
• For best results, DO NOT TURN OFF the solid shortening melter overnight.
• The on/off switch for the melter is also used as a reset switch if the system’s high
limit temperature is reached.
