USING YOUR RETRO HOT DOG ROLLER ™

First, find a stable surface near an electrical outlet before starting. Roller Assembly must be engaged correctly to operate properly. Confirm that the drip tray is in place when using the roller assembly to cook hot dogs. Always make sure your cord is away from any water source. If needed, it is acceptable to use an extension cord.

INSTRUCTIONS:

1.The dial on the right of The RETRO HOT DOG ROLLER™ turns on the power. Turn to the ON position. The red power indicator light should come on. The dial on the left regulates the heating temperature, from LOW to HIGH. Turn on HIGH. Let the unit warm up for 3 minutes or so, and place the hot dogs on the rollers (evenly spaced). Up to 8 regular sized hot dogs or 12 breakfast sausage links can be cooked at one time.

2.You will see the hot dogs begin to turn. They will continue to turn at approximately two cycles per minute. You will notice the color begin to darken as they are cooking. The hot dogs should be cooked for 15 to 20 minutes (depending on the type and size of the hot dogs). The thicker the hot dog, the longer it will take to cook through.

3.After they have cooked, turn the heater knob down to a medium heat to keep the hot dogs warm and still rotating. As hot dogs are taken off, they can be replaced with new hot dogs to cook if need be. Remember to readjust the temperature to HIGH when putting on new hot dogs.

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

To prolong the life of your RETRO HOT DOG ROLLER™, hand-washing parts is advised. Dishwasher use is not recommended.

TROUBLESHOOTING

 

 

Power Light does not turn ON.

Check electrical plug to ensure it is fully

 

plugged in.

Rollers are not turning.

Make sure Power Light is On and the unit

 

is properly plugged in. Turn unit off and

 

on again. Make sure the end roller pin is

 

correctly engaged in the motor base

 

receptacle.

Uneven heating.

Switching the hot dogs from one side to

 

the other is helpful if this occurs.

Hot dogs are not rotating on the rollers.

Due to packaging of hot dogs, sometimes

 

they are square in shape. Adjust the hot

 

dogs manually on the rollers, until they

 

begin to plump from cooking. They will

 

eventually even out in shape and

 

automatically rotate on the rollers.
