Other Consumer Safety Information
This appliance is intended for household use only.
This appliance is only intended for the preparation, cooking, and
serving of foods. This appliance is not intended for use with any
nonfood materials or products.
wWARNING Electrical Shock Hazard: This appliance is
provided with a polarized plug (one wide blade) to reduce the risk
of electric shock. The plug fits only one way into a polarized outlet.
Do not defeat the safety purpose of the plug by modifying the plug
in any way or by using an adapter. If the plug does not fit fully into
the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, have an electrician
replace the outlet.
The length of the cord used on this appliance was selected to
reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in or tripping over a longer
cord. If a longer cord is necessary, an approved extension cord
may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be
equal to or greater than the rating of the appliance. Care must be
taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over
the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
accidentally tripped over.
CROCK AND LID: PRECAUTIONS AND INFORMATION
• Please handle crock and lid carefully to ensure long life.
• Avoid sudden, extreme temperature changes. For example, do not
place a hot lid or crock into cold water, or onto a wet surface.
• Avoid hitting crock or lid against faucet or other hard surfaces.
• Do not use crock or lid if chipped, cracked, or severely scratched.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads.
• The bottom of the crock is very rough and can damage the
countertop. Use caution.
• The crock and lid can become very hot. Use caution. Do not
place directly on any unprotected surface or countertop.
• The crock is microwave-safe and oven-proof, but never heat crock
when empty. Never place crock on a burner or stove top.
• Do not place lid in a microwave oven, conventional oven, or on
stove top.
REMOVING LID AND CROCK
When removing lid, tilt so that opening faces away from you to
avoid being burned by steam. The sides of the slow cooker’s base get very warm because the heating elements are located here. Use handles on base if
necessary. Use oven mitts to remove crock.

How to Use Slow Cooker BEFORE FIRST USE: Wash glass lid and removable
crock in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry.
1. Plug into outlet. 2. Turn unit on by pressing ON/
OFF ( ) button. The unit will
automatically default to a
cooking time of 4 hours on
HIGH.
3. Select desired cooking
temperature by pressing
TEMP button. NOTE: Do not
use WARM setting to cook or
reheat food.
4. Adjust cooking time by
pressing HOURS button.

2-hour increments. Visit
www.foodsafety.gov
for more information
on safe internal cooking
temperatures.
NOTES:
• Cooking temperature and selected cooking hours function
independently of one another and either may be changed at any
time. When a new cooking time is selected, unit will reset to count
down from new number of hours chosen.
• As a safety precaution, unit will not stay on for more than
14 hours of continuous cooking and warming time and will also
shut off automatically.
Selected cooking time will glow for 2 hours. When 2 hours are
finished, next 2-hour light will glow and continue countdown until
cooking time is complete.
At end of cooking time, slow cooker will automatically switch to
WARM setting. NOTE: Cook time plus warm time cannot exceed
14 hours. When unit switches to WARM, light glows to show how
much time is remaining of 14 hours.
