PREPARING FOR USE

Before you use your slow cooker, remove all packaging components and wash the lid and stoneware with warm soapy
water and dry thoroughly. Never immerse the heating base, power cord or plug in water or any other liquid.

IMPORTANT NOTES: Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by
certain appliances. Do not set the heated unit on a heat sensitive surface. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under
your slow cooker to prevent possible damage to the surface.

Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth glass-top stove, countertop, table, or other
surface. Due to the nature of the stoneware, the rough bottom surface may scratch some surfaces if caution is not used.
Always place protective padding under stoneware before setting on table or countertop.

During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke or odour may be detected. This is normal with many heating
appliances and will not recur after a few uses.

ASSEMBLY

1. Place the stoneware into the heating base.

2. Attach the lid by inserting the hinge mechanism into the hinge slot at the rear of the heating base.
