****IMPORTANT POINTS WHEN USING YOUR ROASTER OVEN****
Always use the Main Cooking Pan inside the Roaster Oven when cooking.
Warning: Never put food or liquids directly into the Roaster Oven Main Body.
Avoid the steam vents during the cooking process or when removing or lifting the
lid from the body of the roaster oven.
Always take care to lift the lid at an angle away from you so any hot steam is

Avoid frequent removal of the lid to check on the cooking process or to stir the
food. Significant amount of heat is released whenever the lid is lifted, therefore
the cooking time may need to be extended.

SLOW COOKING:
If you wish to use the Roaster Oven in a Slow Cooking mode, it is recommended to
use with less tender cuts of meat. The heat is more gradual with slow cooking. It
isn’t necessary to stir during the slow cooking cycle. Avoid removing the lid or this
may result in the loss of heat to cook. When using a standard recipe, slow cook 1½
hours for every 30 minutes. Slow cook using the 250°F setting.
BAKING:
When baking inside the roaster oven, always use the Roasting Rack at the
bottom of the roaster oven. Always place any baking pans on top of the rack.
Never place directly on the bottom of the roaster oven.
It is recommended to use metal pans in the roaster oven for they provide
better heat transfer and browning.
It is recommended to preheat the roaster oven before baking.
