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.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
65
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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.
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service
this product. A 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.
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.

NOTE: Once this unit shifts to the WARM setting it will begin counting up for a maximum of 4 hours. Unit will then shut off after 4 hours.
Usage Notes
• If there is a power outage, the display and lights blink when the power is restored. All slow cooker settings have been cleared and must be reset. As a result, 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 in the middle of the range. For instance, to cook a recipe calling for a cooking time of 7 to 9 hours on LOW COOK, set your Crock-Pot
®
slow cooker to 8 hours.
• To avoid over or undercooking, always fill the stoneware ½ to ¾ full and conform to the recommended cook times (unless guided otherwise in our slow cooker recipes).
• Do not overfill stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill stoneware higher than ¾ full.
• Always cook with the lid on for the recommended time. Do not remove the lid during the first two hours of cooking to allow the heat to build up efficiently.
• Always wear oven mitts when handling the lid or stoneware.
• Unplug when cooking is done and before cleaning.
• Removable stoneware is ovenproof and microwave safe. Do not use removable stoneware on gas or electric burner or under broiler. Refer to chart below.
• If you desire to change your settings during the cooking cycle, you must press power off and then power back on to set a different cooking setting.
9
• ALWAYS turn your slow cooker off, unplug it from the electrical outlet, and allow it to cool before cleaning.
• The lid and stoneware can be washed in the dishwasher or with hot, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaning compounds or scouring pads. A cloth, sponge, or rubber spatula will usually remove residue. To remove water spots and other stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner or vinegar.
• As with any fine ceramic, the stoneware and lid will not withstand sudden temperature changes. Do not wash the stoneware or lid with cold water when they are hot.
• The outside of the heating base may be cleaned with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
CAUTION: Never immerse the heating base in water or other liquid.
• No other servicing should be performed.
10
PASTA AND RICE
• For best rice results, use long grain converted rice or a specialty rice as the recipe suggests. If the rice is not cooked completely after the suggested time, add an extra 1 to 11⁄2cups (237 to 355ml) of liquid per cup of cooked rice and continue cooking for 20 to 30 minutes.
• For best pasta results, first partially cook the pasta in a pot of boiling water until just tender. Add the pasta to the Crock-Pot®slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cook time.
BEANS
• Beans must be softened completely before combining with sugar and/or acidic foods. Sugar and acid have a hardening effect on beans and will prevent softening.
• Dried beans, especially red kidney beans, should be boiled before adding to a recipe.
• Fully cooked canned beans may be used as a substitute for dried beans.
VEGETABLES
• Many vegetables benefit from slow cooking and are able to develop their full flavor. They tend not to overcook in your slow cooker as they might in your oven or on your stovetop.
• When cooking recipes with vegetables and meat, place vegetables in slow cooker before meat. Vegetables usually cook slower than meat in the slow cooker.
• Place vegetables near the sides or bottom of the stoneware to facilitate cooking.
HERBS AND SPICES
• Fresh herbs add flavor and color, but should be added at the end of the cooking cycle as the flavor will dissipate over long cook times.
• Ground and/or dried herbs and spices work well in slow cooking and may be added at the beginning.
• The flavor power of all herbs and spices can vary greatly depending on their particular strength and shelf life. Use herbs sparingly, taste at end of cook cycle and adjust seasonings just before serving.

FISH
• Fish cooks quickly and should be added at the end of the cooking cycle during last fifteen minutes to hour of cooking.
LIQUID
• For best results and to prevent food from drying or burning, always ensure an adequate amount of liquid is used in the recipe.
• Ensure the stoneware is always filled a minimum of1⁄2full and a maximum of3⁄4full, and conform to recommended cook times.

Hints And Tips
MILK
• Milk, cream, and sour cream break down during extended cooking. When possible, add during the last 15 to 30 minutes of cooking.
• Condensed soups may be substituted for milk and can cook for extended times.
SOUPS
• Some soup recipes call for large amounts of water. Add other soup ingredients to the slow cooker first then add water only to cover. If thinner soup is desired, add more liquid at serving time.
MEATS
• Trim fat, rinse well, and pat meat dry with paper towels.
• Browning meat in a separate skillet or broiler allows fat to be drained off before slow cooking and also adds greater depth of flavor.
• Meat should be positioned so that it rests in the stoneware without touching the lid.
• For smaller or larger cuts of meat, alter the amount of vegetables or potatoes so that the stoneware is always1⁄2to3⁄4full.
• The size of the meat and the recommended cook times are just estimates and can vary depending upon the specific cut, type, and bone structure. Lean meats such as chicken or pork tenderloin tend to cook faster than meats with more connective tissue and fat such as beef chuck or pork shoulder. Cooking meat on the bone versus boneless will increase required cook times.
• Cut meat into smaller pieces when cooking with precooked foods such as beans or fruit, or light vegetables such as mushrooms, diced onion, eggplant, or finely minced vegetables. This enables all food to cook at the same rate.
• When cooking frozen meats, at least 1 cup (237ml) of warm liquid must first be added. The liquid will act as a “cushion” to prevent sudden temperature changes. An additional 4 hours on LOW COOK or 2 hours on HIGH COOK is typically required. For larger cuts of frozen meat, it may take much longer to defrost and tenderize.
