•Read all instructions before using appliance.
•Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
•Always plug appliance cord into the wall outlet, then adjust temperature control to the desired temperature. To disconnect, turn control to minimum position, then remove plug from wall outlet.
•Do not immerse the cooking base, cord or plug in water or other liquid. See instructions for cleaning.
•This appliance is not for use by children.
•Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used near children.
•Unplug from outlet when not in use. Unplug and allow to cool completely before putting on or taking off parts, and before cleaning.
•Do not operate any damaged appliance. Do not operate with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions, or has been dropped or damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the nearest Authorized Service Center for examination, repair or electrical or mechanical adjustment.
•Use attachments only if recommended by the manufacturer.
•Do not use outdoors or while standing in a damp area.
•Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot surfaces.
•Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
•Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
•Use appliance only as indicated in these instructions.
•Do not use metal scouring pads on the exterior surface of the Roaster Oven. Pieces can break off the pad and touch electrical parts creating a shock hazard.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION: A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of personal injury resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Extension cords are available from local hardware stores and may be used if care is exercised in their use. If an extension cord is required, special care and caution is necessary. Also the cord must be:
(1) marked with an electrical rating of 125 V and at least 10 A, 1250 W., and (2) the cord must be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop, where it can be pulled on by children or tripped
over accidentally.

POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
ELECTRIC POWER: If the electric circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.

BEFORE USING YOUR ROASTER OVEN
1.Carefully unpack your roaster oven and clean, see CLEANING YOUR ROASTER OVEN.

3
3.Turn the control knob to the Steam setting. The indicator light will come on to let you know the unit is heating. Allow to heat for two to three hours or until any odor or smoke disappears. This process is necessary as a part of the initial seasoning of the heating element.
CAUTION: THE ROASTER WILL BECOME HOT WITH USE.
CAUTION: BASE, LINER, HANDLES AND LID WILL GET VERY WARM DURING USE. IF NECESSARY TO HANDLE, USE POT HOLDERS OR OVEN MITTS.
4.When time is complete, turn control knob to minimum position and unplug from outlet. Allow to cool before moving.
5.Clean the lid, liner and rack, see CLEANING YOUR ROASTER OVEN.
USING YOUR ROASTER OVEN
1.Plug into a 120V ~ 60Hz outlet. Place liner into base and place lid on roaster oven.
2.Turn control knob to the Steam setting and allow to preheat for 20 minutes.
CAUTION: THE ROASTER WILL BECOME HOT WITH USE AND PRODUCE STEAM. CAUTION SHOULD BE USED TO AVOID COVERING STEAM VENT HOLES OR COMING IN CONTACT WITH HOT STEAM FROM STEAM VENT HOLES. NEVER PLACE FOOD OR WATER IN THE BASE.
CAUTION: BASE, LINER, HANDLES AND LID WILL GET VERY WARM DURING USE. IF NECESSARY TO HANDLE, USE POT HOLDERS OR OVEN MITTS.
3.Prepare recipe according to instructions and carefully add to the preheated liner using hot pads. Place lid on roaster oven. Do not fill the liner to the brim with food. Leave at least one inch between top of food and the brim of liner. Always cook with the liner in position and lid on the liner. Remember that frequent lifting of the lid during cooking delays total cooking time. Use the rack with handles for baking. Use the liner without the rack for soups, stews, and slow cooked meat. Follow recipes as a guide.
4.Turn the control knob to the desired temperature.
5.Using oven mitts, carefully remove the lid by grasping the handle and lifting the lid away from you so that the steam will escape and moisture will drip back into food before removing the lid completely. The lid may be placed on the lid rest support for temporary holding during serving or stirring.
6.Use the cooking time given in the charts below as a preliminary guide. Check food for desired doneness. When cooking time is complete, turn control knob to minimum position and unplug from outlet.
7.Allow to cool completely before cleaning, see CLEANING YOUR ROASTER OVEN.
