BEFORE YOU USE YOUR VersaWare™ SLOW COOKER
Before you use your slow cooker, wash the lid and stoneware in warm, soapy water
and dry thoroughly.
NEVER immerse the heating base in water or any other liquid.
HOW TO USE YOUR VersaWare™ SLOW COOKER
SAUTÉING
1. Place the VersaWare™ slow cooker stoneware onto one of the large burners on
the stovetop.
IMPORTANT: When using the stoneware on an electric stovetop (coil or ceramic),
the heat diff user (included) must be used. Place the heat diff user onto one of the
large burners and position the stoneware on top of the heat diff user.
2. Coat the inside of the stoneware with oil or butter and place food into the
stoneware. DO NOT heat empty stoneware on the stovetop. Always ensure there
is liquid or food inside the stoneware when heating.
3. Set the stove temperature to Low before increasing to Medium. Turn down heat
as necessary to avoid overcooking. DO NOT use your stoneware on the High
setting on stovetop burners.
4. Stir food in the stoneware often, when cooking on the stovetop.
DO NOT use metal utensils, because they will scratch the stoneware.
SLOW COOKING
1. Insert VersaWare™ slow cooker stoneware into the heating base, place your food
into the stoneware, and plug in the unit. Slide the control to the desired setting.
Your VersaWare™ slow cooker has three temperature settings. LOW (I) is
recommended for slow “all-day” cooking. One hour on HIGH (II) equals about
1½ to 2 hours on LOW (I). WARM ( ) is ONLY for keeping already cooked
food at the perfect serving temperature until you are ready to eat. DO NOT
cook on the WARM ( ) setting. Always cook with the lid on when using your
stoneware in the slow cooker heating base.
2. When cooking is done, slide control to OFF ( ). Unplug from outlet and
allow it to cool before cleaning.
