West Bend Rotisserie Oven instruction manual Using Your Rotary Oven

Using Your Rotary Oven

1.Place Rotary Oven on a dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.

2.Open cover and position baking tray into Rotary Oven aligning the recessed area in center of tray over the rotating drive in center of base. Do NOT operate Rotary Oven without baking tray properly positioned on the rotating drive.

3.Remove food to be cooked from box or wrapper and cardboard tray. Place food onto baking tray, centering and/or spacing evenly, for best results. Do not cover baking tray or line Rotary Oven with aluminum foil.

4.Close cover. With timer and heat selection control at OFF position, plug cord into a 120 volt AC electric outlet ONLY.

5.Select heat source by setting heat selection control at DUAL (upper and lower heat at the same time), UPPER, or LOWER.

6.Set timer for desired cook time. For suggested cooking times refer to cooking guide in this booklet rather than food-packaging recommendations, as most foods will cook faster in the Rotary Oven than in a conventional oven. Remember: When setting timer for less than 15 minutes, you must turn time past the 15 minute mark and then back to the number of minutes you wish to time. This must be done to activate timer and turn appliance on. The baking tray will rotate as the food is cooked. Note: If tray does not rotate, turn timer and heat selection control to “OFF”, unplug from electrical outlet and allow unit to cool completely. DO NOT BLOCK OR INSERT ANY OBJECT INTO VENTING HOLES AS YOU MAY CAUSE HARM TO YOURSELF OR THE APPLIANCE. Using care not to touch heating elements, check to be sure the baking tray is positioned correctly onto rotating drive in bottom of base, food is centered on baking tray and food does not extend beyond the baking tray area. The Rotary Oven does not require preheating.

7.Alert will sound; indicating selected cooking time has elapsed. Turn heat selection control to OFF, open cover and check food for doneness. If additional cooking time is needed, close cover, reset timer to desired time and heat selection control to desired heat setting. To prevent over browning check cooking progress by looking through window in cover. If necessary the cover can be opened to check doneness. When the cover is opened the baking tray will stop rotating. However, as the heating elements will remain hot, foods will continue to cook, therefore, cover should not be left open for extended periods of time. The baking tray will begin rotating again when the cover is closed.

8.When food is done, turn timer to “OFF” if it is not already at “OFF”. Turn heat selection control to “OFF”. Unplug unit from electrical outlet. Open cover. Using a non-metal spatula carefully remove food from baking tray and place onto a serving tray, cooling rack or cutting board. DO NOT CUT PIZZA OR OTHER FOODS ON BAKING TRAY AS SCRATCHING MAY OCCUR.
