ELECTRICITY PRECAUTIONS
• To protect against electric shock do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric
parts in water or other liquids.
• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug.
• Do not operate if the appliance is not working properly or if it has been damaged
in any manner. For service information see warranty page.
• Do not use this appliance outdoors.
• Always attach cord to heating base first, then plug cord into electrical outlet.
After cooking, unplug cord from electrical outlet letting heating base cool
completely before removing cord and before cleaning.
• Always unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool
before putting on or taking off parts and before cleaning.
• Your slow cooker has a short cord as a safety precaution to avoid pulling,
tripping or entanglement. Position the cord so that it does not hang over the
edge of the counter, table or other flat surface area.
• While use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one, make
sure the cord has the same or higher wattage as the slow cooker (wattage is
stamped on the underside of the slow cooker base). If the appliance is of the
grounded type, the extension cord should be a grounded-type 3-wire cord.
Position the extension cord so that it does not hang over the edge of the
counter, table or other surface area.
• Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or
extension cord feels hot.
• Keep the cord away from hot parts of the appliance and hot surfaces during
operation.
