OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION
This product is intended for household use only.
This product is only intended for the preparation, cooking, and serving of foods. This product is not intended for use with any non-food materials or products.
WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that reduces the risk of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet. Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidentally tripped over.
IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
1. Read all instructions.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plug,
or base in water or other liquid.

in base. Cook only in removable crock.
14. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as adding refrigerated
foods into a heated crock.
15. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed to reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, and/or injury to persons, including the following:

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.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads.
• The bottom of crock is very rough and can damage 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.

to prevent bacterial growth before using Warm setting. The Warm setting should only be used after a recipe has been thoroughly cooked. Do not reheat food on Warm setting. If food has been cooked and then refrigerated, reheat it on LOW or HIGH and then switch to Warm. Visit foodsafety.gov for more information.
w WARNING
NOTE: Display does not show any text other than “Err” and “OFF.” When control knob is set, display will show set cook time and the cooking LED light blinks before cooking starts. After cooking starts, display will show remaining cook time and the cooking LED light will remain lit.

Tips for Slow Cooking
• The crock should be at least half-filled for best results. If only half­filled, check for doneness 1 to 2 hours earlier than recipe time.
• Stirring is not necessary when slow cooking and removing glass lid results in major heat loss and the cooking time may need to be extended. However, if cooking on High, you may want to stir occasionally.
• If cooking soups or stews, leave a 2-inch (5-cm) space between the top of the crock and the food so that the recipe can come to a simmer.
• 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.
• 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 crock.
• If cooking a recipe with root vegetables, place root vegetables in the bottom of the crock.
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.
• 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/.

PROBLEM
Food is undercooked.
The food isn’t done after cooking the amount of time recommended in my recipe.
My meal was overcooked. Why?
Display shows “Err” and food is not cooked.
PROBABLE CAUSE
• Was food cooked on the WARM setting? Do not cook on WARM setting; always cook on LOW or HIGH heat settings.
• Was power interrupted (due to brownout, electrical storm, etc.) for 5 seconds or longer?
• Did you select the LOW heat setting, but used a cooking time based on the HIGH heat setting?
• Did you have the glass lid placed correctly on the slow cooker?
• This can be due to voltage variations (which are commonplace everywhere) or altitude. The slight fluctuations in power do not have a noticeable effect on most appliances. However, it can alter the cooking times in the slow cooker by extending the cooking times. Allow sufficient time and select the appropriate heat setting. You will learn through experience if the shorter or longer time is needed.
• 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, check for doneness 1 to 2 hours earlier than recipe time.
• Did you select hours based on a LOW heat recipe?
• Foods will continue to increase in temperature after desired temperature has been reached.
• Was power interrupted during cooking (due to brownout, electrical storm, etc.)? Please check if food is still safe to prepare and eat; then turn the control knob or press any button. The slow cooker will turn ON.
