CROCK AND LID: PRECAUTIONS AND INFORMATION
• Please handle crock and lid carefully to ensure long life.
• Avoid sudden, extreme temperature changes. For example,
do not place a hot lid or crock into cold water, or onto a wet
surface.
• Avoid hitting crock or lid against faucet or other hard
surfaces.
• Do not use crock or lid if chipped, cracked, or severely
scratched.
A short power-supply cord is used to reduce the risk resulting from
it being grabbed by children, becoming entangled in, or tripping
over a longer cord.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads.
• The bottom of the crock is very rough and can damage the
countertop. Use caution.
• The crock and lid can become very hot. Use caution. Do not
place directly on any unprotected surface or countertop.
• The crock is microwave-safe and oven-proof, but never heat
crock when empty. Never place lid on a burner or stove top.
Do not place lid in a microwave oven, conventional oven, or
on stove top.
REMOVING LID AND CROCK
When removing lid, tilt so that opening faces away from you to
avoid being burned by steam.
The sides of the slow cooker’s base get very warm because
the heating elements are located here. Use handles on base if
necessary. Use oven mitts to remove crock.

Introduction
No more dry, mushy slow-cooked meals. The IntelliTime™ slow cooker automatically adjusts the heat to prevent overcooking. Most slow
cooker recipes call for a 6- to 8-hour cook time, but many working families are out of the house for 10 or more hours a day. With the
IntelliTime slow cooker, food is finished precisely when you want, even up to 12 hours later.
The IntelliTime slow cooker has two modes of cooking—IntelliTime mode and Manual mode. The IntelliTime mode adjusts heat based on
the number of hours you want to cook, from 4 hours to 12 hours. When the cooking time has ended, it shifts to WARM for 4 hours. It is
ideal for cooking large meats, meat and vegetable combinations, or long-cooking soups and stews. The Manual mode is the traditional
way of slow cooking with heat settings of WARM, LOW, MEDIUM, and HIGH. Choose the Manual mode for foods with cooking times of
less than 4 hours or recipes such as desserts and egg dishes.
How to Use IntelliTime Mode
INTELLITIME: Choose cooking time from 4 hours to 12 hours in 30-minute increments. In this mode, the slow cooker automatically adjusts
the heat to the hours selected.
Examples of Common IntelliTime Settings
Choose your starting time in the left column. Look across the top to choose a serve time. Your IntelliTime setting is the number of hours at the
point where the two intersect.
BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash lid and crock in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry.

EXAMPLE FOR SETTING INTELLITIME: Your recipe for Beef Stew
calls for cooking on LOW for 6 to 8 hours. You will be away from
home for 10 hours. Ignore the recipe time and set the dial for 10
hours. The slow cooker adjusts heat to make your Beef Stew ready
to eat, not overcooked, at 10 hours. Can’t make it home in 10 hours?
No problem, the slow cooker automatically switches to WARM for up
to 4 hours after cooking time has ended.
When cooking is finished, slow
cooker will automatically switch
to the WARM setting.
MAX cooking
with an additional 4 hours of

Tips for Slow Cooking
• The crock should be at least half-filled for best results. If only
half-filled, foods may cook faster.
• Stirring is not necessary when slow cooking. Removing glass
lid results in major heat loss and the cooking time may need to
be extended.
• Many recipes call for cooking all day. If your morning schedule
doesn’t allow time to prepare a recipe, do it the night before.
Place all ingredients in crock, cover with lid, and refrigerate
overnight. In the morning, simply place crock in slow cooker.
• When choosing recipes for this slow cooker, look for recipes
that call for cooking time on HIGH 4 to 5 hours or LOW 6 to 8
hours. Recipes calling for less cooking time should be checked
periodically for doneness.
Food Safety Tips
• Do not use frozen, uncooked meat in the slow cooker. Thaw any
meat or poultry before slow cooking.
• Visit www.foodsafety.gov for more information on safe internal
cooking temperatures.
• To store leftovers after cooking, do NOT place the entire crock in the
refrigerator since contents will take too long to cool. Instead, divide
leftovers into smaller containers and place into refrigerator.
• Some foods are not suited for extended cooking in a slow cooker.
Pasta, seafood, milk, cream, or sour cream should be added 2
hours before serving. Evaporated milk or condensed soups are
perfect for slow cooking.
• The higher the fat content of meat, the less liquid is needed. If
cooking meat with a high fat content, place thick onion slices
underneath so meat will not sit on (and cook in) fat.
• Slow cookers allow for very little evaporation. If making your
favorite soup, stew, or sauce, reduce liquid called for in original
recipe. If too thick, liquid can be added later.
• If cooking a vegetable-type casserole, there will need to be liquid
in the recipe to prevent scorching on the sides of the crock.
• Never allow undercooked or raw meat to sit at room temperature
in the slow cooker. Once meat is placed into the crock, it should be
cooked immediately (unless prepping slow cooker the night before,
where crock should be placed into the refrigerator).
IF YOU LIVE IN A HIGH-ALTITUDE AREA:
The Extension service will have detailed information about cooking
for your area. To locate the Cooperative Extension service in your
county, please visit: http://www.csrees.usda.gov/Extension/.

Troubleshooting
PROBLEMPROBABLE CAUSE/SOLUTION
Food is undercooked.• Was food cooked on the Warm setting? Do not cook on Warm.
• Was power interrupted?
• Did the slow cooker cook for the complete time selected? Select HIGH or the 4-hour setting to
add more time to the recipe.
• Recipe had too much liquid.
• Crock was overfilled.
• Did you have the lid placed correctly on the slow cooker?
My meal was
overcooked. Why?
• Was the crock at least half full? The slow cooker has been designed to thoroughly cook food
in a filled crock. If the crock is only half-filled, foods may cook faster. Check for doneness
periodically.
• Foods will continue to increase in temperature after desired temperature has been reached.
• Recipe called for shorter than normal cook time and IntelliTime™ mode was used.
