HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER
USAGE NOTES:
• There is one temperature setting. When plugged in, the temperature
of this unit is equivalent to the LOW setting on Crock-Pot
®
slow
cookers that have HIGH and LOW settings.
• If you suspect that the power has gone out during the day, the food
may be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the power was
out, we suggest you discard the food inside.
• For recipes that require a range of times, select the mid-range time.
For instance, to cook a recipe calling for a cooking time of 7 to 9
hours on LOW, set your slow cooker to 8 hours.
• To avoid over-or under-cooking, always fill the stoneware
1
⁄2 to
3
⁄4 full
to conform to recommended cook times (with the exception of
certain cakes and custards, and as guided otherwise in our slow
cooker recipes).
• Do not overfill stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill stoneware
higher than
3
⁄4 full.
• Always cook with the lid on for the recommended time. Do not
remove the lid during the first two hours of cooking.
• Always wear oven mitts when handling the lid or stoneware.
• Unplug when cooking is done and before cleaning.
• Removable stoneware is ovenproof and microwave safe. Do not use
removable stoneware on gas or electric burner or under broiler.
