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 cooking pot, so ingredients can
come to 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 stand 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 cord into a 120 V AC outlet. The 3 program indicator lights will ash until the unit
is programmed.
4. Following recipe instructions, press the LOW/HIGH/WARM selector button until the desired LOW,
HIGH or WARM program indicator light illuminates.
5. Press the TIME program UP arrow and “0:30” (30 minutes) will appear on the time display.
Continue to press the UP or DOWN arrows until the target cooking time appears on the time display.
The Programmable Slow Cooker can be programmed in half hour (30 minute) increments from
“0:30” (30 minutes) to “20:00” (20 hours). The Slow Cooker will begin to heat.
NOTE: Press the UP or DOWN arrows to adjust target cook time at any time while the Slow Cooker
is cooking.
NOTE: Press the OFF button at any time to turn the Programmable Slow Cooker OFF.
6. The time on the display will begin to count down in minutes until “0:00” minutes is shown on
the display.
CAUTION: The base unit will get very warm during cooking. This is where the heating elements
are located. Use pot holders or oven mitts when moving or handling the unit.
7. When the cooking time expires (00:00), the WARM indicator will ash for 5 second and then will
activate the keep warm mode for 4 hours.
NOTE: Press the POWER button at any time to turn the Programmable Slow Cooker OFF.
8. To manually select the warm setting, press the MODE button until WARM is illuminated.
The Programmable Slow Cooker will WARM by default for “04:00” (4 hours).
NOTE: Press the STOP button at any time to turn the Programmable Slow Cooker OFF.
9. To lock the slow cooker place the tempered glass lid over the stoneware pot, take the elastic lid lock
located on the base handle and bring it over to the lid lock bracket on the tempered glass lid. Secure
the elastic lid lock over the lid lock bracket. The locking lid handles seal tightly for spill-proof travel.
To unlock the lid, remove elastic lid locks from the lid lock bracket on the tempered glass lid, and let
hang from the slow cooker handles of the Programmable Slow Cooker. (see gure 2 below).
10. 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.
