INSTALLATION:

1. Place the desired quantity of hot dogs on the
holders.

2. When ready to start broiling, push the switch to
"ON" position and the infinite control switch to
"HIGH". NOTE: A lower infinite control setting
may be used for slower broiling.

3. The time required to broil the hot dogs will vary,
depending upon the size and the temperature of
the hot dogs when placed in the Broil-O-Dog.

With the switch "ON" and the infinite control on
"4-1/2", average size hot dogs at room
temperature will be ready for serving in about 15
minutes. This time can be decreased to 10
minutes by setting the control on "HIGH", but
care should be taken so as not to blister the hot
dogs at this setting. Turn control to 2-1/2 or 3 to
keep the hot dogs in a ready to serve condition.

Hot dogs can be held for several hours on this
unit without loss of flavor or shriveling. For
continuous use during rush periods, the units can
be left on any setting without harm.

1. Clean broiler inside and outside before placing in
service. (See Cleaning)

2. Place the broiler in a prominent location on a
level counter, where the revolving hot dogs will
attract attention.

3. Precaution should be taken so customers do not
come in contact with the hot broiler.

4. Plug the lead in cord into a suitable 120 volt (or
240V, if applicable) convenience outlet.

NOTE: When you turn the switch to the
"OFF" position, you also turn off the heating
element.

4. Load or unload the hot dog wheel by pressing in
and holding the serve switch to stop the hot dog
wheel.

5. The hot dog wheel can be removed from the unit
for cleaning. The glass is removable for cleaning
but care should be exercised when doing so.

UNITS EQUIPPED WITH BUN
COMPARTMENT

Put one quart of water in the bun compartment to
keep buns moist and warm. Use warm water for
best results. Check water level periodically and add
water when necessary. Buns will become stale and
hard if there is no water in the bun compartment pan.

NOTE: The choice of buns will make a
difference in the quality of the heated buns. A
bun with a doughy interior is not as good as one
with a coarse makeup

LIGHT BULB

Use 15 watt, 120 volt (or 240V if applicable)
appliance size oven type lamp.

CLEANING:

1. Place ON/OFF switch in "OFF" position.

2. Remove the hot dog wheel and drip tray.

3. Remove the wheel hanger at left of broiler

must be taken when doing so.

5. Clean all of the above parts and inside and
outside of the broiler with soap and water,
rinse and install parts.
