To turn a fryer off, follow these steps:
- Turn the thermostat to OFF. Locate the thermostat knob or control on your fryer and set it to the "OFF" position.
- Turn the gas valve to the PILOT position (if applicable, for gas fryers). This will shut off the main gas supply.
Important Note: Putting the fryer in "Standby" (as described above) is only meant for brief periods. For a full shutdown, consult your fryer's manual for specific instructions, as procedures can vary by model and fuel type (gas vs. electric). Always prioritize safety when operating and shutting down a fryer.
