OPErATiNg iNSTruCTiONS
1. Prepare recipe according to instructions.
2. Place food into the stoneware pot and cover with glass lid. DO NOT FILL THE
STONEWARE POT TO THE TOP WITH FOOD. For best results, the slow cooker
should be at least half-lled. If cooking soups or stews, allow a 2-inch space between
the food and the top of the cooking pot, so ingredients can come to simmer.
NOTE: When cooking a meat and vegetable combination, place the vegetables in the
bottom of the stoneware pot rst. Then add the meat and other ingredients.
NOTE: When cooking on HIGH, keep checking progress, as some soups may come
to boil. Remember that frequent lifting of the lid during cooking delays the cooking time.
WARNING: The stoneware pot CANNOT stand the shock of sudden temperature
changes. If the stoneware pot is hot, DO NOT add cold food. Before cooking frozen
food, add some warm liquid.
3. Plug cord into a 120 V AC outlet. Press the POWER button; the screen will illuminate

hiNTS FOr SLOW COOKiNg
• Less tender, cheaper cuts of meat are better candidates for slow cooking than more
expensive varieties.
• Meats will not brown during the cooking process. Browning fatty meats will reduce
the amount of fat and help to preserve color while adding richer avor. Heat a small
amount of oil in a skillet and brown meats prior to putting into the stoneware pot.
• Whole herbs and spices avor better in slow cooking than crushed or ground.
• When cooking in a Slow Cooker, remember that liquids do not boil away like they do
in conventional cooking. Reduce the amount of liquid in any recipe that is not
designed for a Slow Cooker. The exceptions to this rule would be rice and soups.
Remember, liquids can always be added at a later time if necessary. If a recipe results
in too much liquid at the end of the cooking time, remove the cover and re-program
the Slow Cooker to continue to cook HIGH for 45 minutes.Check every 15 minutes.
After about 30-45 minutes the amount of liquid will be reduced.
• Most recipes that call for uncooked meat and vegetables require about 6-8 hours
on LOW temperature.
• Foods cut into uniform pieces will cook faster and more evenly than foods left whole
such as roast or poultry.
• Vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, turnips and beets require longer cooking time
than many meats. Be sure to place them on the bottom of the Slow Cooker and cover
them with liquid.
• Add fresh dairy products (milk, sour cream or yogurt) prior to serving.
Evaporated milk or condensed creamed soups may be added at the start of cooking.
• Rice, noodles and pasta are not recommended for long cooking periods.
Cook them separately and then add to the Slow Cooker during the last 30 minutes.
