Cooking Modes
No matter what you plan to cook, the Set ‘N Forget®Slow Cooker
has three cooking modes to make it easy. Here’s how to choose
the one that’s right for your lifestyle and the food you’re cooking.
Will you be away when your food is finished cooking?
Use PROGRAM Mode. Input preferred amount of cooking time
and the slow cooker automatically shifts to Warm at the end of
the selected cooking time. Food won’t overcook!
Do you want to cook the traditional way without setting a time?
— OR —
Do you want to heat previously cooked food?
Use MANUAL Mode. Lets you select traditional High or Low settings.
Are you cooking a large cut of meat or using a recipe that
requires food to reach a certain temperature?
Use PROBE Mode. For many foods, especially large cuts of meat
like roasts, chicken, turkey and pork, internal food temperature is
the best test for doneness. The temperature probe with this slow
cooker takes the guesswork out of slow cooking. Select the
desired internal food temperature and the slow cooker will
automatically shift to Warm once the temperature is reached.
By using the Cooking Guide for Probe chart, you can estimate
the amount of time the food will need to cook.
Visit foodsafety.gov for more information about cooking times
and proper internal temperature settings.
Do you want to keep previously cooked food warm?
(For instance, moving slow cooker from kitchen to buffet table.)
Use the PROBE Mode. Once food reaches desired temperature,
you can select the Warm setting to monitor food temperature.
Use the MANUAL Mode. Lets you select Warm setting.
Use the PROGRAM Mode. Lets you select Warm setting.
The slow cooker will shut off after desired time.

Tips for Slow Cooking
• Foods will continue to increase in temperature after desired
temperature has been reached.
• The Crock should be at least half-filled for best results.
If only half-filled, check for doneness 1 to 2 hours earlier
than recipe.
• Stirring is not necessary when slow cooking and removing
the glass lid results in major heat loss and the cooking time
may need to be extended. However, if cooking on High, you
may want to stir occasionally.
• If cooking soups or stews, leave a 2-inch space between the
top of the Crock and the food so that the recipe can come to
a simmer.
• Many recipes call for cooking all day. If your morning schedule
doesn’t allow time to prepare a recipe, do it the night before.
Place all ingredients in the Crock, cover and refrigerate
overnight. In the morning, simply place the Crock in the slow
cooker.
• Do not use frozen, uncooked meat in the slow cooker.
Thaw any meat or poultry before slow cooking.
• Some foods are not suited for extended cooking in the slow
cooker. Pasta, seafood, milk, cream, or sour cream should be
added 2 hours before serving. Evaporated milk or condensed
soups are perfect for the slow cooker.
• The higher the fat content of the meat, the less liquid is needed.
If cooking meat with a high fat content, place thick onion slices
underneath so the meat will not sit on (and cook in) the fat.
• Slow cookers allow for very little evaporation. If making your
favorite soup, stew, or sauce, reduce the liquid called for in
the original recipe. If too thick, liquid can be added later.
• If cooking a vegetable-type casserole, there will need to be
liquid in the recipe to prevent scorching on the sides of the
crock.
• To keep previously cooked food warm (food that is already
at the desired temperature), select the Warm setting in any
of the three cooking modes: Program, Manual or Probe.
• The cooking time is not affected or slowed down by steam
or heat escaping from Probe Hole when probe is not in use.

POTENTIAL PROBLEM
There is no display visible
on the control panel.
I can’t program the current
time on the control panel.
Food is undercooked.
The food isn’t done after
cooking the amount of time
recommended in my recipe.
My meal was overcooked.
Why?
PROBABLE CAUSE
• Is the unit plugged in?
• Is the unit turned on? Display should flash SEL.
• Test that the electrical outlet is working with a lamp in known working order.
• Power interruption of 5 seconds or longer.
• There is no “clock” feature on this slow cooker, only a countdown timer.
• Was food cooked on the Warm setting? Do not cook on Warm setting; always cook on Low or High
heat settings.
• Was power interrupted (due to brownout, electrical storm, etc.) for 5 seconds or longer?
NOTE: For a power interruption of 5 seconds or less, the slow cooker will remember the programmed
heat and time settings.
• Did you select the Low heat setting, but used a cooking time based on the High heat setting?
• Did you have the Glass Lid placed correctly on the slow cooker?
• This can be due to voltage variations (which are commonplace everywhere) or altitude. The slight
fluctuations in power do not have a noticeable effect on most appliances. However, it can alter the
cooking times in the slow cooker by extending the cooking times. Allow sufficient time and select the
appropriate heat setting. You will learn through experience if the shorter or longer time needed.
• Was the crock at least half-full? The slow cooker has been designed to thoroughly cook food in a filled
crock. If the crock is only half-filled check for doneness 1 to 2 hours earlier than recipe time.
• Did you select hours based on a Low heat recipe?
• Foods will continue to increase in temperature after desired temperature has been reached.

Quick Temperature Probe Recipes
How much does your slow cooker hold? The capacity of your slow cooker refers to the amount the crock can hold if it is filled to the rim.
However, we DO NOT recommend filling to the rim. As a rule, you should select recipes that yield 1 quart less than the capacity of your crock.
For example, if your Slow Cooker is 6-quarts, your best results will be achieved using recipes that yield 5 quarts or less.
Maple Boneless Pork Roast
Place 4-5 lb. (2-2.2 kg) boneless pork roast in slow cooker. Season with salt and pepper. Pour 1/2 cup (125 ml) of good quality maple syrup over
pork. Spread top of pork roast with 3 teaspoons (15 ml) of Dijon mustard. Top with 3 tablespoons (45 ml) brown sugar. Cover, insert probe, and
cook according to Cooking Guide.
Chicken Pieces with Lemon and Fresh Rosemary
Rinse and pat dry 4 lb. (2 kg) chicken pieces. Place pieces evenly in bottom of slow cooker. Juice one lemon and pour over chicken. Sprinkle

Modes de cuisson
Quoi que vous vouliez cuire, la mijoteuse Set ‘N Forget®a trois
modes de cuisson pour vous faciliter la tâche. Voici comment
choisir celui qui convient à votre style de vie et aux aliments que
vous cuisez.
Serez-vous absent quand vos aliments finiront de cuire?
Utilisez le mode PROGRAM. Inscrivez votre durée préférée de
cuisson et la mijoteuse conservera automatiquement au chaud les
aliments à la fin de la durée de cuisson choisie. Vos aliments ne
brûleront pas!
Voulez-vous cuire d’une manière traditionnelle sans préciser le
temps de cuisson?
— OU —
Voulez-vous conserver au chaud les aliments après leur cuisson?
Utilisez le mode MANUAL/MANUEL. Ce mode vous permet de
choisir les réglages traditionnels HAUT ou BAS.
Faites-vous cuire un gros morceau de viande ou utilisez-vous une
recette qui exige que les aliments atteignent une certaine
température?
Utilisez le mode PROBE/SONDE. Pour beaucoup d’aliments,
en particulier pour les morceaux de viande particulièrement
gros, comme les rôtis, les poulets, les dindes et le porc, c’est la
température intérieure des aliments qui indique le mieux le degré
de cuisson. La sonde de température de votre mijoteuse vous
permet d’obtenir automatiquement la bonne température. Vous
choisissez la température intérieure de l’aliment que vous désirez
et la mijoteuse s’arrêtera automatiquement de chauffer mais con-
tinuera à conserver l’aliment au chaud quand cette température
sera atteinte. En utilisant le Guide de cuisson avec sonde, vous
pouvez estimer la durée de cuisson des aliments.
Visitez le site foodsafety.gov pour obtenir plus d'informations à
propos des durées de cuisson et des réglages de température
interne adéquats.
Vous souhaitez conserver vos aliments préalablement cuits au
chaud? (Par exemple, déplacer la mijoteuse de la cuisine vers la
table de service.)
Utilisation du mode PROBE/SONDE. Une fois que les aliments
ont atteint la température désirée, sélectionnez le réglage Warm
(chaud) pour surveiller la température des aliments.
Utilisation du mode MANUAL/MANUEL. Vous permet de régler
le degré de conservation de Warm (chaleur).
Utilisation du mode PROGRAM/PROGRAMME. Vous permet de
régler le degré de conservation de Warm (chaleur). La mijoteuse
s'arrêtera à la fin de la durée de cuisson choisie.
