IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1. READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or heating base in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Use oven mitts or allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to the manufacturer (see warranty) for examination, repair, or adjustment.
7. Do not use outdoors.
8. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch heated surfaces.
9. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
10. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids. Always use oven mitts when moving your heated slow cooker.
11. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
12. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as adding refrigerated foods or cold liquids into a heated pot.
13. To disconnect, press/switch OFF then remove plug from wall outlet.
14. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may cause injuries.
15. Keep 6 inches clear from the wall and 6 inches clear on all sides.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this
product. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting
from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. AN EXTENSION CORD MAY BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE SLOW COOKER. The extension cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: 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 finished wood table. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your slow cooker to prevent possible damage to the surface.
NOTE: During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and will not recur after a few uses.
NOTE: Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth glass cook 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.

PREPARING YOUR CROCK-POT®SLOW COOKER 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.
ASSEMBLY
1. Place stoneware into the heating base.
2. Lower the lid horizontally down onto the stoneware. (Figure 1)
HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER
1. Place the stoneware into the heating base, add your ingredients to the stoneware, and cover with the lid.
®
2. Plug in your Crock Pot
slow cooker. You will have to reduce the cooking
time of the recipe if the stoneware is less than three quarters full.
Minimum and maximum spill lines are included inside of the stoneware for easy reference.
3. The unit will be off until the knob is moved from the OFF position. Turn the knob to select the heat setting from the three setting options. The timer window will begin to count up displaying the time the unit has been cooking on the current setting. LOW is recommended for slow “all-day” cooking. One hour on HIGH is equivalent to approximately 1½ to 2 hours on LOW. Refer to your specific recipe for more precise cook times. You will have to reduce the cooking time of the recipe if the stoneware is less than three quarters full. NOTE: We do not recommend using the WARM setting for more than 4 hours. When cooking is done, turn the knob to OFF. Unplug your Crock Pot
®
slow cooker and allow it to cool before cleaning.
USAGE NOTES:
• If there is a power outage while coking, when the power is restored the unit will return to cooking at the currently selected setting and the timer window will start counting up displaying the elapsed time since the power was restored.
• If you suspect that the power has gone out during the day, the food may be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the power was out, we suggest you discard the food inside.
• 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.
