Never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads to clean the cooking pot or base as these can damage the

Stoneware cooking pot may be cleaned in a dishwasher. To prevent damage, position it in rack so that it
will not hit other items during cleaning.
If cooking pot becomes stained, clean with a non-abrasive cleanser or apply a paste of baking soda with
a soft cloth. To remove water spots or mineral deposits, wipe with distilled white vinegar, or pour a small
amount into pot and let it soak. After cleaning, wash pot in warm, soapy water, rinse and dry.
STORAGE:
Clean and dry all parts before storing. Store appliance in its box or in a clean, dry place. Never store it
while it is hot or wet.
To store, place covered cooking pot inside the base and place the glass lid over the pot. Never wrap cord
tightly around the appliance, keep it loosely coiled.
Adapting recipes (general recommendations)
The LOW setting is recommended for all-day-cooking. Most meat and vegetable combinations require at
least 7 hours on LOW.
For best flavour, use fresh herbs and spices during initial preparation. If ground herbs are used, stir in during
last hour of cooking.
Many factors can affect how quickly a recipe will cook. The water and fat content of food, its temperature,
and the size of the item(s) will all affect the cooking time. Food cut into pieces will cook faster than larger
pieces.
Recipes for vegetable-type casseroles must contain liquid to prevent scorching on the sides of the cooking
pot.
If using a specific recipe, one item may be substituted for another, if an equal quantity is u sed.
Canned beans may be added directly to any recipe. Dried beans, especially red kidney beans, should be
soaked in water and boiled first. After covering and boiling in 3 times their volume of unsalted water, add
beans to recipe and discard water. Beans must be softened completely before they are combined with
sugary and/or acid foods, as these have a hardening effect on beans. In this case, beans should be allowed to
simmer until tender (about 1 ½ hours) after boiling.
