INTRODUCTION TO SLOW COOKING
Slow cooking occurs at temperatures just around boiling. The slow cooker can operate at low all day or night if required. When cooking on a 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.
HOW TO USE THE AUTO FEATURE
The auto feature allows you to prepare meals in less time than it would take on low, but not as quickly as on high. When set on auto, the slow cooker begins cooking on high. Once the high temperature is reached, it then automatically switches to the low setting. When using the auto temperature
GETTING TO KNOW YOUR SLOW COOKER
Product may vary slightly from illustration.
POLARIZED PLUG: This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in 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 defeat this safety feature.

setting, you are able to initially heat the food faster, shortening the standard cooking time required for low by approximately 25%.
BEFORE FIRST USE
1. Carefully unpack your slow cooker and clean, see CLEANING YOUR SLOW COOKER.
2. It is necessary to operate the slow cooker one time before placing food in the stoneware liner. Pour 2 cups of water into the stoneware liner and place it inside the cooking base. Put lid on.
3. Plug into a 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet.
4. Turn control knob to high position and allow to heat for approximately 20 minutes. You will notice a slight odor; this is normal and should quickly disappear.
5. Turn control knob to off position and allow to cool for 15 minutes.
6. Carefully pour water from the stoneware liner.
7. Rinse stoneware liner, dry thoroughly and place back inside the cooking base.
USING YOUR SLOW COOKER
1. Prepare recipe according to instructions. Cover with the glass lid. Do not fill the stoneware liner to the brim with food. Always cook with the lid on and the liner in position. Remember that frequent lifting of the lid during cooking delays cooking time. When cooking a meat and vegetable com­bination, place the vegetables in the bottom of the liner first. If the liner is hot, DO NOT add cold food and vice versa. The stoneware liner can­not stand the shock of sudden temperature changes.
2. Plug into a 120 V ~ 60 Hz outlet.
3. Turn control knob to the desired cooking setting, high, low or auto. CAUTION: COOKING BASE WILL GET VERY WARM DURING COOKING. THIS IS WHERE THE HEATING ELEMENT IS LOCATED. IF NECESSARY TO HANDLE, USE POT HOLDERS OR OVEN MITTS.
4. When cooking time is complete, turn control knob to off position and unplug from outlet.
5. Using oven mitts, carefully remove the glass lid by grasping the knob and lifting the lid slightly away from you. This will allow the steam to escape before removing the lid.
6. Allow a few seconds for all steam to escape. Then, using oven mitts, remove the stoneware liner from the cooking base.
7. Allow to cool completely before cleaning, see CLEANING YOUR SLOW COOKER.
HINTS FOR SLOW COOKING
Meats will not brown during the cooking process. If you desire
browning, heat a small amount of oil in a skillet and brown meats prior to putting into stoneware liner.
Whole herbs and spices flavor better in slow cooking than crushed
or ground.
5
When cooking in a slow cooker , remember that liquids do not boil away
like they do in conventional cooking. Reduce the amount of liquid in any recipe that is not designed for a slow cooker. The exceptions to this rule are rice and soups. Remember, liquids can always be added at a later time if necessary. If a recipe results in too much liquid at the end of the cooking time, remove the cover and turn the control knob to high. After about 30-45 minutes the amount of liquid should be reduced.
High fat meats can result in dishes with less flavor. Pre-cooking or
browning will help reduce the amount of fat and help to preserve the color. The higher the fat content, the less liquid needed. If cooking meat with a high fat content, use thick onion slices under it so that the meat will not set in and absorb the fat. If necessary, use a slice of bread, a spoon, or a straining spoon to skim off excess fat from top of foods before serving.
Foods cut into uniform pieces will cook faster and more evenly than
foods left whole such as roast or poultry.
CONVERTING STANDARD RECIPES TO SLOW COOKING
Vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, turnips, and beets require longer
cooking times than most meats. Place them on the bottom of the stoneware liner and cover them with liquid.
If adding fresh milk or yogurt, it should be done during the last 2 hours.
Evaporated milk may be added at the start of cooking. If possible, substitute condensed soups for fresh milk or yogurt.
Rice and pasta are not recommended for long cooking periods. Cook
them separately and then add to the slow cooker during the last 30 minutes, or follow slow cooker recipe directions.
CARING FOR YOUR SLOW COOKER
Avoid sudden, extreme temperature changes. For example, do not place
a hot glass lid or stoneware liner into cold water or onto a wet surface.
Avoid hitting the stoneware liner and glass lid against the faucet or other
hard surfaces.
Do not use stoneware liner or glass lid if chipped, cracked, or severely
scratched.
CLEANING YOUR SLOW COOKER
CAUTION: NEVER IMMERSE COOKING BASE OR CORD IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID.
1. Always unplug and allow to cool completely before cleaning.
2. Wash stoneware liner and glass lid in warm, soapy water. If food sticks to the stoneware liner, fill with warm, soapy water and allow to soak before cleaning with a plastic scouring pad.
3. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
4. Wipe interior and exterior of the cooking base with a soft, slightly damp cloth or sponge. Never use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads to clean the cooking base, as they may damage the surfaces.
6
5. Allow to dry thoroughly before storing. Never wrap the cord tightly around the appliance; keep it loosely coiled.
Any servicing requiring disassembly other than the above cleaning must be performed by an authorized ser vice center.
