Polarized Plug

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the
other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to
fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully
into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qual­ified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

Short Cord Instructions

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting
from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord. Longer
extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised
in their use.

If a longer extension cord is used, (1) the marked electrical rating of
the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rat­ing of the appliance, and (2) the longer cord should be arranged so
that it will not drape over the counter top or table top where it can
be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.

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.

Introduction

Your George Jr.™Rotisserie is a full-featured Rotisserie with a pow­erful motor, large cooking area, and a heavy-duty Rotisserie Bar
Assembly.

Complete with all the accessories you’ll need, your George Jr.

™

Rotisserie allows you to cook anything from delicate fish or vegeta­bles to poultry items and hamburgers! Cook fish or hamburgers in
the Adjustable Flat Basket or cook “guilt-free” air-baked fries in the
Roasted Veggies/Air Bake Basket. Any way you cook it—it’s
healthy and delicious!

Rotisserie

Foods which are cooked on a Rotisserie are extra flavorful,
because they are self-basted with their own juices. Foods are more
healthful as fat can drip down, away from food during cooking.

Food to be cooked on the Rotisserie must be no longer than about
9-1/2 inches. This allows the entire piece of food to fit onto the
Rotisserie Bar Assembly and be in line with the Heating Element.
Weight of food to be cooked is less important than length.

Carefully center food (especially food with a bone in it) on Rotisserie
Bar Assembly, as unbalanced food will cause a jerking motion
during cooking. This causes undue stress on the Motor. Adjust
food as necessary.

Use cooking string to tie poultry at wings and legs. This will
compact the bird so no parts touch the Heating Elements.
