HELPFUL TIPS
HOT DOGS AND BUNS
THE RETRO SERIES™ POP-UP HOT DOG TOASTER is designed to use only
two standard-size hot dogs and two standard-size buns at a time.
Do NOT use jumbo sized hot dogs or buns. Although they may initially fit into the baskets,
heating will cause them to swell and get stuck in the toaster. If hot dogs get stuck inside
the Hot Dog Baskets, let them cool so that they will contract and be easily removed.
Adjust the variable heat controller according to size of hot dogs and buns. Room
temperature hot dogs and buns will cook more quickly than those just removed from
the refrigerator. Hot dogs should have an internal temperature of 165˚ F after cooking.
BURNING/SMOKING
If the machine is burning or smoking during cooking, press the
STOP button to end the cooking cycle. After machine has cooled
completely, use tongs to remove the hot dogs and buns.
Smoking may also be caused by excess crumbs and pieces of hot dog
stuck inside the machine. To prevent smoking, make sure to clean the
Hot Dog Basket and empty Crumb Catcher after each use.
