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 plugs in any way. If the plugs fits loosely into the AC
outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.

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 RESTfeature, 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 roasted in your Roaster Oven will be moist and tender . For additional
browning, brush oil or butter over the meat before cooking.
•To create a darker roasted, crispier skin poultry , do not add liquids (with the
exception of the basting butter or oil) until there are only 30 minutes left
of cooking.

ROASTING MEATS AND POULTRY
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 approximate and should be used as a
guideline only.
