settings HOW TO USE YOUR CROCK-POT ® SLOW COOKER
1. Place food in stoneware according to recipe
2. Plug in slow cooker. Put on a heat resistant surface.
3. There are three temperature settings. LOW (I) is recommended for
slow "all-day" cooking. 1 hour on HIGH (II) equals about 2 hours on
LOW (I). WARM ( ) is for keeping food warm only. DO NOT cook
on WARM ( ) setting. Push the MODE key pad to set the desired
temperature.
4. Push the "Time" arrows to scroll through the timed cooking options.
The time can be set in increments of 30 minutes up to 20 hours. Select
the time based on the length of time indicated in the recipe.
5. Frozen food such as vegetables and shrimp may be used as part of a
recipe. However, do not cook frozen meats (such as roasts or chick-
ens) unless you first add at least 1 cup of warm liquid. The liquid will
act as a "cushion" to prevent sudden changes in temperature. Cook
recipes containing frozen meats an additional 4 hours on LOW (I), or
2 hours on HIGH (II).
6. When the cooking time is completed, the slow cooker will automati-
cally shift to the WARM ( ) setting and the KEEP WARM light will
come on. NOTE: We do not recommend using the WARM ( ) set-
ting for more than 4 hours.
7. To turn the slow cooker off, push the OFF ( ) button. Unplug the unit
from the wall outlet.
8. Always cook with the lid on.
9. Follow the recommended cooking times.
10. Do not use slow cooker stoneware for the storage of food.
11. Do not reheat foods in your slow cooker.
12. Do not set heated base filled with food on a finished wood table.
13. Unplug when cooking is done and before cleaning.
14. Removable stoneware is ovenproof and microwave safe. Do not use
stoneware on gas or electric burners or under a broiler. The lid is NOT
ovenproof or microwave safe.
Unplug unit. CAUTION: Never submerge heating unit in water or
other liquid.
REMOVABLE STONEWARE
• The removable stoneware goes safely into the dishwasher, or may be
washed in hot soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaning compounds
– a cloth, a sponge or rubber spatula will usually remove the residue.
To remove water spots and other stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner
(such as Bon-Ami
® Polishing Cleaner) or vinegar.
• The outside case may be cleaned with a soft cloth and warm soapy
water. Wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners. As with any fine ceram-
ic, the stoneware bowl will not withstand the shock of sudden tem-
perature changes.
CARE OF STONEWARE
As with any fine ceramic, the stoneware bowl will not withstand the shock
of sudden temperature changes.
• If the stoneware has been preheated or is hot to the touch, do not put
in cold foods. Do not preheat slow cooker before using unless specified
in the recipe. The stoneware should be at room temperature before
adding hot foods.
