safety
When using electrical appliances, to reduce the risk of fire,
electric shock, and/or injury to persons, basic safety
precautions
should always be followed, including the following:
•
READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS CAREFULLY.
• Do not touch hot surfaces, use the handles or knobs.
Always use oven mitts when handling hot materials.
Allow metal parts to cool before cleaning. Allow the
Rotisserie to cool thoroughly before putting in
or removing parts.
• When unit is not in use and before cleaning,
unplug the Rotisserie from wall outlet.
• To protect against electric shock, do not place cord,
plug or appliance in water or other liquids.
• Close supervision is always necessary when this
or any appliance is used by or near children
or incapacitated persons.
• Do not allow anything to rest on the power cord.
• Do not plug in cord where people may walk or trip on it.
• Do not operate this or any appliance with a damaged cord
or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been
damaged in any manner. Return appliance to an authorized
service facility for examination, repair or adjustment.
• Avoid contact with moving parts.
• Do not use attachments that are not recommended by the
manufacturer; they may cause fire, electric shock or injury.
• Do not use outdoors or for commercial purposes.
• Do not let the cord hang over the edge of a table or
countertop or touch hot surfaces. Do not place the
appliance on an unsteady or cloth-covered surface.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
iii
safety
• Do not place the appliance near a hot gas or electric burner or
in a heated oven.
• To unplug, grip plug and pull from wall outlet.
• Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance
containing hot oil or other hot liquids.
• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
• Use extreme caution when removing drip pan or disposing of
hot grease.
• Do not operate without food inside.
Use of Extension Cords:
A. A short power supply cord (or detachable power-supply cord)
is to be provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming
entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
B. Longer detachable power-supply cords or extensions cords
are available and may be used if care is exercised in their use.
C. If a longer detachable power-supply cord or extension cord
is used:
1. The marked electrical rating of the cord set or extension
cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating
of the appliance.
2. The cord should be arranged so that it will not drape
over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on
by children or tripped over unintentionally.
D. If the appliance is of the grounded type, the extension cord
should be a grounding-type 3-wire cord.
iv
safety
• Electrical power: If electric circuit is overloaded with other
appliances, your Rotisserie may not operate properly.
The Rotisserie should be operated on a separate electrical
circuit from other appliances.
FOR PRODUCTS PURCHASED IN U.S. AND CANADA ONLY:
This appliance has a polarized alternating current plug (one blade
is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, as a
safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way.
If the plug does not insert fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it
still fails to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete
outlet. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT THIS SAFETY FEATURE.
