How To Use And Care For
Your 6 Qt. NESCO® Roaster Oven
BEFORE USING THE FIRST TIME:
1.
Unpack your NESCO Roaster oven completely and REMOVE
COOKWELL, ALL PACKAGING MATERIAL AND INFORMATION
LABELS. Place the Roaster Oven in a WELL VENTILATED AREA ON
A HEAT RESISTANT SURFACE. Set the control dial to its minimum
setting. Connect the cord to the Roaster Oven and plug the cord into
a 120 volt AC outlet. Return control to maximum setting (425ºF).
Operate the Roaster Oven empty for approximately 60 minutes, or
until any odor or smoking disappear. Some smoke and odor
are a normal part of “curing” the element and will not
reoccur in cooking use. When curing is completed, turn the
temperature control to its lowest setting, unplug the unit from the
electrical outlet and allow to cool.
2. Wash the Cover, Cookwell and Rack in warm sudsy water, then rinse
and dry. Refer to complete cleaning instructions on next page.
NON-STICK COOKWELL: When curing your Roaster Oven with a
non-stick Cookwell, we recommend that it be operated WITHOUT THE
COVER AND COOKWELL. Do this in a covered outside area or other
well-ventilated area. After curing and cleaning, and before cooking
in your non-stick Cookwell for the first time, lightly coat the interior
of the Cookwell with vegetable oil.
To Operate Your Roaster Oven
1. Place the Cookwell into the Heatwell. Always use the Cookwell for
food. NEVER PLACE FOOD DIRECTLY IN THE HEATWELL.
2. Preheating is recommended. To preheat, place the Cookwell into
the Heatwell and cover. Set the control dial to its minimum setting.
Connect the cord to the Roaster Oven and plug into a 120 volt AC
outlet. Reset the temperature control to desired temperature.
Preheat 20 minutes. Carefully, using hot pads, add food to the
Cookwell.
3. The Rack may be used for baking or fat-free roasting. Other foods,
such as soups and stews, are prepared without the Rack.
4. Replace the Cover. Always cook with the Cover in place.
