Thank you for purchasing a Ginny’s Brand 6.5
Quart Digital Slow Cooker. Not only is this
item great for seng ahead of me (so you
can have your hot dinner ready when you
want it), but you can cook two separate types
of foods at once! It comes with a divided pot
AND a full pot —for exibility that can’t be
beat. Enjoy!
President, Ginny’s

ELECTRICAL SAFETY

This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug in which one prong is
wider than the other. This is a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical
shock. The plug should be aached to the appliance before connecng to

you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If it
sll does not t, contact a qualied electrician. Do not aempt to modify
the plug in any way. Ginny’s cannot accept any liability for damage or
injury resulng from failure to observe these safety procedures.

HOW TO OPERATE

• Slow cooking retains moisture. If you wish to reduce moisture in the
cooker, remove the lid aer cooking and turn the control to high (if
set to low) and simmer unl desired consistency is reached.
• The lid is not a sealed t. Don’t remove it unnecessarily as the built
up heat will escape. Each me you remove the lid, add an addional
10 minutes to the cooking me.
• If cooking soups, leave 2 inches of space between the top of the pot
and the soup to avoid spilling over.
• If browning is desired, this should be done before adding the food
to the slow cooker.
• If adapng an exisng recipe from convenonal cooking, you may
need to cut down on the amount of liquid used. Liquid will not
evaporate from the slow cooker as it would in a tradional oven.
CLEANING & CARE
1. Turn o and unplug the slow cooker.
2. Always allow the slow cooker to cool completely before cleaning.
3. Disassemble all parts.
4. Do not use abrasive brushes or pads, or harsh cleaning soluons.
5. Use a so cloth, sponge or rubber spatula to remove any stuck-on food or
residue. Hand wash the glass lid and ceramic pot in warm, soapy water.
These items are also dishwasher safe.
6. Wipe the exterior of the base with a damp cloth.
7. Do not immerse the heang base, its cord, or its plug, into water.
8. Ensure all parts are dried thoroughly before reassembling and using
this slow cooker.
