Capacity
How much does your
slow cooker hold?
The capacity of your slow cooker
refers to the amount the cooking
vessel can hold if it is filled to the
rim. However, in order to avoid food
boiling over and spilling, we DO NOT
recommend filling to the rim. As a
rule, you should select recipes that
yield 1 quart less than the listed
capacity of your cooking vessel.
For example, if your slow cooker is
labeled as a 6-quart slow cooker,
your best results will be achieved
using recipes that yield 5 quarts
or less.
The Control Knob on the slow cooker
offers Low and High temperature
settings for cooking. The Keep Warm
setting is for holding the prepared
recipe at a perfect serving temperature.
The Keep Warm setting should only
be used after a recipe has been thor-
oughly cooked. Food should not be
reheated on the Keep Warm setting. If
food has been cooked and then refrig-
erated it must be reheated on Low or
High, then switched to Keep Warm.

Health Hazard
The Keep Warm setting should only be used after completely cooking the recipe
according to the instructions. The food must be hot enough to prevent bacterial
growth before using the Keep Warm setting. Do not use the Keep Warm setting
to reheat any food that has been refrigerated or frozen.
