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 in 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.

Short Cord Instructions

A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the risk resulting from becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.

Do not use an extension cord with this product.

Electric Power

If the electrical circuit is overloaded with other appliances, your appliance may not operate properly. It should be operated on a separate electrical circuit from other appliances.

Introduction To Slow Cooking

Slow cooking occurs at temperatures just around 200˚F. The Slow Cooker can operate on Low all day or night if required. When cooking on High setting, it is very much like a covered pot on the stove top. Foods will cook on High in about half the time required for Low cooking. Additional liquid may be required as foods do boil on High. To turn the Slow Cooker Off, turn the Control Knob to the OFF position. Always unplug from electrical outlet when not in use.

NOTE: Lid must not be removed while cooking on LOW setting.

Keep Warm Setting

To use the Keep Warm setting, prepare the recipe according to instructions. When cooking is complete, food can be kept on the Keep Warm setting for short periods of time.
