HOW TO CLEAN YOUR SLOW COOKER
•
ALWAYS turn your slow cooker off, unplug it from the electrical outlet,
and allow it to cool before cleaning.
•
The lid and stoneware can be washed in the dishwasher or with hot,
soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaning compounds or scouring
pads. A cloth, sponge, or rubber spatula will usually remove the
residue. To remove water spots and other stains, use a non-abrasive
cleaner or vinegar.
•
As with any fine ceramic, the stoneware and lid will not withstand
sudden temperature changes. Do not wash the stoneware or lid with
cold water when they are hot.
•
The outside of the heating base may be cleaned with a soft cloth and
warm, soapy water. Wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
CAUTION: Never immerse the heating base in water or other liquid.
•
No other servicing should be performed.

HOW TO USE YOUR CROCK-POT
®
SLOW COOKER
1.
Add your ingredients to the stoneware and cover with the lid.
2.
Plug in your Crock-Pot
®
slow cooker.
3. Select temperature setting (HIGH or LOW).
NOTE: WARM is ONLY for keeping already cooked food at the
perfect serving temperature. DO NOT cook on the WARM setting.
4. Press the "Time" arrows to scroll through the timed cooking options.
The time can be set in increments of 30 minutes up to 20 hours. Select
the time based on the length of time indicated in the recipe. The time
will begin to count down in one minute increments.
5.
When the cooking time has completed, the Crock-Pot
®
slow cooker
automatically shifts to the WARM setting and the WARM light illuminates.
NOTE: We do not recommend using the WARM setting for more
than 4 hours.
6.
To turn the Crock-Pot
®
slow cooker off, press the OFF button and
unplug the unit from the outlet.
USAGE NOTES:
•
If there is a power outage, the display and lights blink when the power
is restored. All slow cooker settings have been cleared and must be
reset. As a result, 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 in the middle of
the range. For instance, to cook a recipe calling for a cooking time of 7 to
9 hours on LOW, set your
Crock-Pot
®
slow cooker to 8 hours.
• If desired, you can manually switch to WARM when your recipe is done
cooking.
• To avoid over or undercooking, always fill the stoneware
½ to ¾
full and
conform to the recommended cook times (unless guided otherwise in our
slow cooker recipes).
• Do not overfill stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill stoneware
higher than
¾
full.
