IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should
always be followed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

3. To protect against electrical shock do not immerse roaster base,
cord, or plug in water or other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by
or near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow
to cool before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.

6. Do not operate roaster oven with a damaged cord or plug or
after the appliance malfunctions, or has been damaged in any
manner. Return appliance to the manufacturer (see warranty) for
examination, repair, or adjustment.

7. Do not use outdoors.

8. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch hot
surfaces, including the stove.

9. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a
heated oven.

10. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance
containing hot oil or other hot liquids.

11. CAUTION: Steam escaping from under cover or food warming
pans is hot and can cause burns.

12. Do not use appliance for other than its intended use.

13. Use oven mitts to remove the REMOVABLE ROASTING PAN from
the roaster oven; or to remove a baking pan or cooked food
from the REMOVABLE ROASTING PAN.

14. To disconnect, turn TEMPERATURE CONTROL to OFF, then
remove plug from wall outlet.

15. Some countertop surfaces such as Corian® and other surfaces
are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by
certain appliances. We recommend placing a hot plate or trivet
under your Rival® product to prevent possible damage to the
surface.

THIS UNIT IS INTENDED FOR

HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY

These appliances are for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user­serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service these products.
Do not immerse base in water or other liquid.
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.

DO NOT ATTEMPT TO DEFEAT THIS SAFETY FEATURE.

EXTENSION CORD USE

A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards
resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. AN
EXTENSION CORD MAY BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE
MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS
THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE ROASTER OVEN. The extension
cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.

LEARNING ABOUT YOUR ROASTER OVEN PREPARING YOUR ROASTER OVEN FOR USE

1. Remove all packaging materials.

2. Wash the REMOVABLE ROASTING PAN, ROASTING RACK and
LID in hot, soapy water using a sponge or wash cloth. Rinse
thoroughly.

3. The outside of the ROASTER OVEN BODY may be cleaned with a
soft cloth and warm soapy water. Wipe dry. Do not use abrasive
cleaners. Do not immerse the ROASTER OVEN BODY in water.

NOTE: Due to manufacturing process, some smoke and odor may
be noticed during the first use. This should disappear after the first
heating of the roaster oven.

IMPORTANT POINTS

• Always use the REMOVABLE ROASTING PAN in the roaster

oven when cooking.

NOTE: Never place food or liquid directly into the ROASTER

OVEN BODY.

• Avoid the steam vents when removing or lifting the LID.

• Significant amounts of heat escape whenever the LID is

removed; therefore the cooking time must be extended. Avoid
frequent removal of the LID for checking cooking progress or
stirring.

• To use the LID REST feature, hold the LID upright by the

HANDLE and place the edge of the LID under the metal tabs
just above either side HANDLE.

• Convenience foods can be baked in the roaster oven. Place

container on ROASTING RACK. Follow package directions.

Meats will cook more rapidly in the Roaster Oven than a
conventional oven. Reducing temperature and increasing time
will result in a browner, crispier crust. Times indicated below are
