Operating Instructions
1. Prepare recipe according to instructions.
2. Place food into the stoneware pot and cover with glass lid. DO NOT FILL THE POT TO THE TOP
WITH FOOD. For best results, the Slow Cooker should be at least half-lled. If cooking soups or
stews, allow a 2-inch space between the food and the top of the stoneware pot, to allow ingredients
to come to a simmer.
NOTE: When cooking a meat and vegetable combination, place the vegetables in the bottom of the
stoneware pot rst. Then add the meat and other ingredients.
NOTE: When cooking on HIGH, keep checking progress, as some soups may come to boil.
Remember that frequent lifting of the lid during cooking delays the cooking time.
WARNING: The stoneware pot CANNOT withstand the shock of sudden temperature changes. If the
pot is hot, DO NOT add cold food. Before cooking frozen food, add some warm liquid.
3. Plug into a 120V AC outlet. The POWER indicator light will begin to ash.
4. Press the SELECT button once. The 4hr. HIGH indicator light will illuminate.
5. Following recipe instructions, press the SELECT button until the desired program indicator light
illuminates: 4hr. HIGH or 6hr. HIGH, 8hr. LOW or 10hr. LOW, or WARM.
6. The Slow Cooker will begin operation. When the desired cook time has elapsed, the Slow Cooker
will automatically advance to WARM, for 4 hours. The WARM indicator light will illuminate. At the
end of 4 hours, the Slow Cooker will automatically turn OFF.
NOTE: When cooking is complete, press the OFF button; then unplug the Slow Cooker.
7. Using oven mitts, carefully remove the glass lid by grasping the lid knob and lifting the lid slightly
away from you. This will allow the steam to escape before removing the lid.
8. Allow a few seconds for all steam to escape. Then, using oven mitts, remove the stoneware pot
from the base unit. Serve contents. If serving directly from the stoneware pot, always place a trivet
or protective padding under the pot before placing it on a table or countertop.
9. Unplug from electrical outlet. Allow to cool completely before cleaning, see Cleaning Instructions.

using; set aside and allow unit to cool before cleaning or storing.
