HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER
1. Place the stoneware into the heating base, add your ingredients to
the stoneware, and cover with the lid.
2. Plug in your Crock-Pot slow cooker and select the temperature
setting from the three setting options. Low is recommended for
slow “all-day” cooking. One hour on HIGH is equivalent to
approximately 1½ to 2 hours on LOW. Refer to your specific
recipe for more precise cook times. NOTE: Some models feature a
WARM setting. 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. NOTE: We do not recommend
using the WARM setting for more than 4 hours.
3. When cooking is done, unplug your slow cooker and allow it to
cool before cleaning.
USAGE NOTES:
• If you suspect that the power has gone out during the day, the food may
be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the power was out, we
suggest you discard the food inside.
• For recipes that require a range of times, select the time closest to the
setting on your slow cooker. For instance, to cook a recipe calling for a
cooking time of 7 to 9 hours on LOW, set your slow cooker to 8 hours.
