The meat sticks to the Heating Element Cover:
• Spray the Center Heating Element with spray-on cooking oil before
loading the roast.
• Let the roast rest for about 10 minutes before trying to remove it from
the Heating Element Cover.
• If necessary, cut the roast lengthwise down one entire side to remove
the Heating Element Cover.
Liquid or drippings are collecting at the bottom the Main Body :
• If cooked food is allowed to stand in the roaster to cool, condensation
will collect and run down the interior walls into the bottom of the unit.
• Make sure the drip tray is in place and properly positioned. Clean be-
fore and after each use.
• Drippings may run down the Heating Element Cover and collect in the
bottom.
• During operation, some drippings may bypass the drip tray and splatter
onto the interior walls and run down into the bottom of the unit.
• Press the PAUSE button and carefully remove the cooking stand and
food. Always use oven mitts or pads. Empty the Drip Tray halfway
through cooking cycle if it is full or if the food being cooked has a high
percentage of fat content.
Steam and/or smoke is present during operation:
• It is normal to have some smoke coming from the unit during first use.
(Please refer to the Before First Use section on page 7.)
• Food residue or splatters on the interior surface may cause minimal
smoke. Make sure to wipe out the interior of the roaster after every use.
• Always ensure that the food is not touching the outer heating elements.
Tuck or tie the turkey wings in with food safe string so they won't touch
the outer heating elements.
