slow cooker. You will have to reduce the cooking
time of the recipe if the stoneware is less than three quarters full.
3. The unit will be off until the POWER button is
pressed. Press the SELECT button to cycle
between time settings. Cook time options
include 4 or 6 hours on HIGH, or 8 or 10 hours
on LOW. The corresponding light illuminates,
the slow cooker heats, and the internal timer
starts counting down the time.
4. When the cooking time has completed, the slow
cooker automatically shifts to the WARM setting
and the WARM light illuminates. The timer will
count up and the timer window will display the
amount of time the unit has been on warm.
5. The unit will automatically shut off after six hours on warm. When you
are done using the unit, press the POWER button.
USAGE NOTES:
• If there is a power outage while cooking, when the power is restored
the unit will be off. All slow cooker settings have been cleared and must
be reset. However, the food may be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of
how long the power was out, we suggest you discard the food.
• 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.
• To avoid over- or under-cooking, always fill the stoneware ½ to ¾ full
to conform to recommended cook times (with the exception of certain
cakes and custards, and as guided otherwise in our slow cooker recipes).
• Do not overfill stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill stoneware
higher than ¾ full.
