Features of the Nomad Slow Cooker

• Dry erase board and marker. Use to identify or describe the food in the slow cooker.

Any markings made on the board can simply be removed with the eraser on the marker
cap. To extend the life of the marker, make sure the cap is always tightly closed.

Remove dry erase marker from the holder on the front of the slow cooker before
cooking. If the marker is left in the holder during cooking, it may not write. Should

this occur, position the marker flat on the counter and allow it to cool. Usually, after
2 to 3 hours, the marker will write again.

• Removable utensil holder. Easily lift from the cover and use as a spoon rest. When
the utensil holder is removed, the viewing area to monitor cooking is enlarged.

To remove the utensil holder, first position the unit so the control is facing you. Next,
move the carrying handle to the unlocked position, either toward the front or the
back. Then, lift up on the right side of the utensil holder (Fig. B) and remove it from
the cover. If desired, remove the silicone cord before resting a utensil on the holder.

To reattach the silicone cord to the utensil holder, put the cord on top of the holder. Fit
the cord under one set of tabs, twist the cord once, then stretch it and secure the cord
under the other set of tabs (Fig. A).

If carrying a serving utensil when traveling with the slow cooker, secure the utensil
holder to the cover. Insert the large tab on the utensil holder, which is opposite the
NOMAD logo, into the slot on the left side of the cover frame. Firmly push down
on the NOMAD logo until the holder snaps into place. Position the utensil under the
silicone cord (Fig. A).

• Convenient cord storage. After cooking, push the cord into the built-in cord storage
port on the back of the unit, and then secure the cord end in the clip (Fig. C).
