OTHER CONSUMER SAFETY INFORMATION

This product is intended for household use only.

This product is only intended for the preparation, cooking, and serving of foods. This product is not intended for use with any non-food materials or products.

WARNING! Shock Hazard: This appliance has a polarized plug (one wide blade) that reduces 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 using an adaptor. If the plug does not fit, 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.

• Avoid hitting crock or lid against faucet or other hard surfaces.
• Do not use crock or lid if chipped, cracked, or severely scratched.

DISHWASHER SAFE

Tips for Slow Cooking

• 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. Removing 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 (5 cm) 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 crock, cover with lid, and refrigerate overnight. In the morning, simply place crock in slow cooker.

• Do not plug vent holes with paper towels or other objects. Vent holes allow steam to escape and wattage has been adjusted to compensate for heat loss.

• Do not use frozen, uncooked meat in slow cooker. Thaw any meat or poultry before slow cooking.

• Some foods are not suited for extended cooking in a slow cooker. Pasta, seafood, milk, cream, or sour cream should be added 2 hours before serving. Evaporated milk or condensed soups are perfect for slow cooking.
• The higher the fat content of meat, the less liquid is needed. If cooking meat with a high fat content, place thick onion slices underneath so meat will not sit on (and cook in) fat.
• Slow cookers allow for very little evaporation. If making your favorite soup, stew, or sauce, reduce liquid called for in 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 crock.

Troubleshooting

POTENTIAL PROBLEM	PROBABLE CAUSE
Food is undercooked.	Was food cooked on the Keep Warm setting? Do not cook on Keep Warm; always cook on Low or High heat settings.Was power interrupted?Did you select the Low heat setting but use a cooking time based on the High heat setting?Did you have the lid placed correctly on the slow cooker?
The food isn't done after cooking the amount of time recommended in my recipe.	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 a shorter or longer time is needed.
My meal was overcooked. Why?	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 correct number of hours based on cooking temperature (Low or High)?Foods will continue to increase in temperature after desired temperature has been reached.
Lid gasket collapsed.	This can be caused by sudden temperature change, like running cold water over a warm lid.Allow lid to sit at room temperature. It will return to its original shape within 24 hours.To help maintain shape of gasket, do not cook with clips latched and do not store empty unit with clips latched.
Spoon stored in lid handle.	Make sure that notch in spoon handle is lined up with one of the tabs (dimples) in lid handle and then press spoon handle past all four tabs at the same time.
