POLARIZED PLUG INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug will fit
into the polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not properly
fit into the outlet at first, reverse it. If it still does not fit, contact a
competent qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in
any way.
For appliances equipped with a standard plug, simply insert the plug
into the outlet without paying attention to the way you plug it.
SHORT CORD INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from becoming entangled in, or tripping over a longer cord.
Extension cords may be used if care is exercised in their use.
•
The electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least
that of the appliance. If the electrical rating of the extension
cord is too low, it could overheat and burn.
•
The resulting extended cord should be arranged so that it will
not drape over the counter top or tabletop where it can be
pulled on by children or tripped over.

KNOW YOUR APPLIANCE
•
Temperature control range is 390°F (Low setting) – 515°F (High
setting)
•
•
Timer range is 0 to 99 minutes.
Your oven’s cavity has been coated with a non stick material to
enable an easier cleaning of the cavity walls.
Your oven is also equipped with center heating element that
enables the food to be cooked from the inside out, while the
outer heating elements cook from the outside in. This special
feature enables the food to cook much quicker. It is not
recommended to switch on the center heating element if you
want the food to be cooked “rare” of “medium-rare”, especially
for roast beef.

•
•
Removable parts are dishwasher safe (except main housing),
making cleaning up easy
Contrary to traditional rotisserie systems, this appliance has no
moving parts (pit or fan) which make it very silent. Hot air will
circulate around the roast to enable even cooking results.
IMPORTANT GUIDELINES FOR COOKING MEAT
AND POULTRY – TIPS FOR OPTIMAL RESULTS
NOTE: Please read this entire Use / Care Guide thoroughly before
using.
Caution: Always make sure that meat and poultry are
thoroughly cooked before eating. The juices from
poultry should run clear when cooking process is
complete.
•
All meat and poultry should be thoroughly defrosted before
cooking. Have foods at room temperature before placing them in
the rotisserie.
•
•
We recommend the use of a meat thermometer to ensure the
food is cooked thoroughly.
Cooking times will vary according to shape, thickness and
composition of food. It is recommended that food be checked
after the minimum time stated to avoid over cooking.
The maximum recommended size for poultry is 10 lb.
Cooking times for beef will vary depending if you want it “rare” or
“well done.” Recommended internal temperatures for beef are:
rare 140oF; medium rare 145oF; medium 160oF; well done 170oF.
For adding flavor, do marinate or apply rubs, seasonings and spices
to foods, but this prior loading into the rotisserie.
For easier cleanup, spray the rotisserie parts and accessories with a
spray-on cooking oil before cooking. DO NOT spray the part with
an aerosol during the cooking or while the rotisserie is in function.
Remember small poultries (6 or 8 lb.) cook much quicker than
larger ones (10lb.) Use a meat thermometer to control the cooking
at regular intervals.
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Select roasts that have and even shape as they will cook in a more
uniform way.
It is important to position the center heating element cover as
centered as possible into the roast, especially at the large end if
6

ꢀ
the roast is not evenly shaped. Position the larger end of the roast
at the top, not at the bottom.
•
•
If the roast is short, please leave it positioned near the top instead
of near the bottom end of the center heating element.
Do not serve immediately after cooking is finished. Let the food rest
for 10 minutes after removing from the rotisserie, before serving, to
allow a more juicy poultry or roast.
•
For meat cut in pieces, like pork chops or sausages or chicken
breast, it is advised to use the skewers.
BEFORE THE FIRST USE
•
Unpack the appliance and accessories, then wash and wipe
these accessories. Wipe the inside and outside of the rotisserie
with a sponge or damp cloth and dry thoroughly.
•
•
NEVER IMMERSE IN WATER
It is normal if some smoke or smell emanates from the appliance
when using it for the first time. This is not harmful. In order to
eliminate any packing oil that may remain after production, we
recommend to operate the appliance for 15 minutes, using the
rotisserie on its maximum temperature setting (HIGH).
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
CAUTION:
NEVER LEAVE UNATTENDED WHILE IN USE!
WARNING: THE LID OF THE ROTISSERIE GETS VERY HOT DURING USE;
ALWAYS WEAR GLOVES AND HANDLE WITH CARE
•
To make the rotisserie easier to clean, hold the drip tray and the
inside of the lid and spray with a non-stick cooking spray. Do the
same for the Center heating element cover and the tower
accessory when they will be used
•
•
Position the drip tray around the heating element and slide it in
position
Follow step A, B or C below before powering on the rotisserie

ꢀ
A - PREPARE MEAT
•
Place meat (roast) on a plate or cutting board. With a knife, cut
and X-shaped slit through the center of the roast, large enough
for the center heating element cover to fit in.
NOTE : if using smaller roasts or meat cut in pieces, you can use
the tower of the skewers instead
Position the cover with the mounted roast over the center
heating element.
•
•
B- PREPARE POULTRY
•
•
The giblets should be removed from the poultry
Feed the center heating element cover through the bottom of
the tower
•
•
Pull the chicken open and mount it over the top of the tower, so
that the drumsticks hang downwards on the side of the tower.
Make sure the center heating element cover’s end comes
through the neck of the chicken, or extends through the front of
the body cavity as much as possible, if the poultry is large.
Lift the poultry, using the metal loop at the end of the center
cover, with the hook handle, and position the center cover over
the heating element, with the poultry mounted. The bottom of
the tower shall rest on the drip pan.
•
C- USING SKEWERS
•
•
•
To make kebabs or roasts smaller pieces of meat, the skewers will
come handy.
Cut the meat in small pieces, marinate if desired, and then add
the cubed meat / small pieces / sausages onto the skewers.
When skewers are loaded with food, insert the short end of the
skewer’s shaft into the holes of the tower so that they fit into
vertical position
•
Slide the tower into position around the central heating element,
so that it stands on the drip tray.

USING THE ROTISSERIE
•
Place the lid, plug the unit on and press “ON/OFF” once. The unit
will beep twice and the digital display will start flashing “00”. The
“HIG” and “POULTRY” indicator turn on, and the 4 light indicators
for the heating elements will flash on.
•
These 4 lights indicate which heating elements will turn on when
the rotisserie starts cooking. The 3 outer lights indicate the outer
heating elements, the center light indicates the center heating
element.
•
•
•
•
The “center heater” button will switch the center heating
element on and off, also during the cooking cycle.
Press “SELECT” button to choose “POULTRY” or “MEAT” type,
indicated by the “MEAT” and “POULTRY” lights.
Press the “+” or “-” keypad to increase or decrease the cooking
time desired. The maximum cooking time is 99 minutes.
Press the “HEAT” button to select “HIGH” or “LOW” (see
recommendations in the table hereafter). The indicator light
indicates the program selected; most of the time you will use the
“HIGH” setting, but the “LOW” setting is interesting to experiment
with.
•
Press “START/PAUSE” button, the “On” light will illuminate and the
digital display will start to count down. When the heating
elements turn on, two of the lights will flash in a circular array,
alternating in a circular pattern. It is normal for the 3 outer heating
elements not to work at the same time.
CAUTION: the lid will become very hot during cooking. Handle with
care and with oven mitts or pads. The roasting process generates
steam that can cause burns. Tilt the glass lid when opening so that
the steam is directed away from the face and hands.
•
•
Check the internal temperature of the food periodically with a
food thermometer until the food is done.
When the cooking cycle is finished, the rotisserie will beep twice,
the digital display will show “00” and the heating elements will
turn off automatically. Using a hot pad or oven mitt, carefully
remove the glass lid

•
Insert the hook handle into the loop at the end of the heating
element cover or at the top of the drip tray to lift the food, using 2
hands for large birds or roasts. Place on a large tray or shallow
pan.
•
•
Allow food to rest for 10 to 15 minutes for best results.
For skewers, carefully remove them from the tower, and slide the
food onto a plate.

Carefully remove Drip Tray from Main Body and pour grease into
a suitable container.
All removable parts are dishwasher safe or may be washed by
hand in hot soapy water.
Over time, the tower, center cover and skewers will discolor - this
is normal. The Glass Lid may have to be cleaned with a 3M
scouring pad or similar, along with a non-abrasive cleanser, to
remove burnt-on grease. Rinse and set aside to air-dry.
To remove baked-on food residue easily, place parts in hot soapy
water and let stand for 20 - 30 minutes before hand washing.
Wipe interior of main body and heating elements with a damp
cloth or sponge, and dishwashing detergent, to remove grease.
To clean grease spatters behind the heating elements, carefully
slide a paper towel or sponge dampened with water and
dishwashing detergent. Slide behind the element and dry with a
paper towel or soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleansers on
exterior or interior surfaces.
•
•
•
•
To clean cooked-on foods from interior surfaces or glass window,
use a plastic bristle brush, or a polyester or nylon mesh pad,
dampened with a dishwashing detergent and water. NEVER
spray cleaners directly into the interior surfaces of the Main Body.
Clean spills from exterior of Main Body with a damp cloth after
each use. Dry thoroughly with soft cloth.
DO NOT IMMERSE THE MAIN BODY OF THE APPLIANCE IN WATER OR
ANY OTHER LIQUID.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Meat roasts stick to center heating element cover.
•
•
Did you remember to grease this part before loading the roast?
Is the roast very lean? Remember to let the roast stand about 10
minutes before trying to remove it from the shaft.
•
Try loosening the meat from around the top and bottom of the
shaft, then push the top of the shaft down through the meat. If it’s
still stuck, cut the roast lengthwise down one entire side, and then
11

ꢀ
slip the shaft out. Cut the roast on the other side so that you have
2 long pieces. Slice the roast thinly to serve.
Turkey will not fit in unit.
•
•
•
•
Some turkey breasts are hard to position. Try to centre them as
much as possible, using the tower.
Use string and skewers to help keep the turkey breast in place if
necessary.
Large birds may simply not fit in. We do not recommend using for
birds over 10 lb.
Try placing the bird in the rotisserie without the tower.
The roasts and poultry are not thoroughly done.
•
The times in the user guide are approximate. Increase the
cooking times
•
Timer is not set up correctly. Recdommended times shall be used
as a starting point.
Meat is done inside but overdone outside
•
•
Meat is thick and requires more cooking time at reduced speed.
Try cooking on High for half of the cooking time, and switch to
LOW mid-cycle until theend of the cooking time.
Unit does not turn on or will not get hot
•
Did you plug the unit in?
•
You MUST set the timer before pushing the Start/Pause button.
Cannot change countdown minutes on display
•
Timer buttons must be pushed firmly. You may not have pushed
hard enough or long enough.
•
To advance time quickly, push and hold the timer button for 1 full
second.
Some smoke is visible during use
•
During first use, it is normal to have some smoke coming from the
unit. Smoke from food splatters on subsequent use is also normal.
Did you wipe out the interior of the unit after the last use?
Is roast or poultry touching the heating elements? Did you tie
chicken wings in so they won’t touch the heating elements?
•

ꢀ
•
Is fat and dripping spattering onto the heating elements during
cooking?
Grease/drippings may ooze out onto counter.
•
•
Make sure the drip tray is properly in place.
During use, some dripping may spatter onto interior walls and run
down into the bottom of the unit, bypassing the drip tray.
Drippings may also run down the centre are, collecting in the
bottom.
•
•
•
Does the food being cooked have a high quantity of fat? You
may have to pause halfway through cooking, remove the
roast/bird, and then carefully empty the drip tray.
If cooked food is allowed to stand in the unit to cool,
condensation will collect and run down the interior walls to the
bottom of the unit.
Be sure the rotisserie is completely cooled down before
attempting to clean the inside.
Meat roasts cook unevenly.
•
Did you thread the roast onto the shaft evenly? Roasts need to
be centered on the Shaft toward the top of the unit to cook
evenly.
•
Was the roast oddly shaped, with a small pointed end and a
large wide end? Then try cooking a roast without the centre
element on for more typical cooked results.
There’s a hole in the middle of the roast.
•
This is typical of any roast that is cooked on a rotisserie-type
appliance. Since the centre heating element helps cook the
roast, the hole in the meat may be a little more noticeable than
from other rotisseries. However, the roasts also cook much more
quickly.
•
To try to minimize the shaft hole, turn off the centre element. It will
take longer to cook, but the hole will be much less noticeable.
