Instructions for the Electrical Cord and Plug

1. This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the
risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to t into a polarized outlet only one way.

If the plug does not t fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not t,
contact a qualied electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way.

2. A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting
from becoming entangled or tripping over a long cord.

3. If a long detachable power-supply cord or extension cord is used:

• Extension cords can be used if care is exercised in their use.

• The marked electrical rating of the cord or extension cord should

be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance.

• When using a longer cord or extension cord, make sure that

the cord does not drape over a countertop or tabletop where
it can be pulled on or tripped over unintentionally.

4. The manufacturer does not recommend using this machine in countries that do not
support 120V AC even if a voltage adapter, transformer, or converter is in use.

HOW TO OPERATE

1. Place the HOT DOG ROLLER on a stable surface near an electrical outlet before starting.

2. Stainless Steel Rollers must be correctly inserted in order to operate
properly. Also make sure that the Drip Tray is in place.

3. Always make sure that the cord is away from any water source.
It is acceptable to use an extension cord if necessary.

4. The dial on the right of The HOT DOG ROLLER turns on the power. Turn to
the ON position. The red power indicator light should come on.

5. The dial on the left regulates the heating temperature, from MIN to
MAX. Turn to MAX. Let the unit warm up for 3 minutes or so.

6. Once the appliance has nished heating, place the hot dogs on the
Stainless Steel Rollers (evenly spaced). Up to eight regular-sized hot
dogs or 12 breakfast sausage links can be cooked at one time.

7. The hot dogs will begin to roll. They will continue to roll
at approximately two cycles per minute.

8. As the hot dogs cook, they will begin to darken in color. The hot dogs should
be cooked for 15 - 20 minutes depending on the type and size of hot dog.
The thicker the hot dog, the longer it will take to cook through.

9. After they have fully cooked, turn the heater knob down to a medium heat
so that the hot dogs stay warm and continue rolling prior to serving.

10. After the cooked hot dogs are removed from the Stainless Steel Rollers,
they can be replaced with new hot dogs to cook if desired. Remember to
readjust the temperature to MAX when putting on new hot dogs.

By following these simple instructions, your HOT DOG ROLLER
will be fun for friends, family and kids of all ages!

HELPFUL TIPS

POWER LIGHT

If the red power indicator light does not come on after turning the dial to the ON
position, check the electrical plug to make sure it is fully plugged into outlet.

ROLLERS

If the Stainless Steel Rollers are not turning, make sure the power light
is on and the unit is fully plugged into outlet. Turn unit o and on again.
Make sure the end roller pin is correctly inserted into the Base.

Sometimes hot dogs are square in shape which prevents them from rolling properly. Rotate
the hot dogs, using tongs, on the Stainless Steel Rollers until they begin to plump from
cooking. They will eventually even out in shape and automatically move on the rollers.

HEATING

If hot dogs are cooking unevenly, move the hot dogs from
one side of the Stainless Steel Rollers to the other.

To prevent buns from drying out, wrap in foil or paper towel prior to placing in warmer.
