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 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.
