BEFORE FIRST USE
This appliance is intended for household use only.
• Remove all packing material, any stickers, and the plastic band around the power plug.
• All parts of the appliance need to be thoroughly cleaned before being used for the rst time
(see CARE AND MAINTENANCE). Place the clean, dry ceramic bowl in the cooking base.
• Select a location where the unit is to be used. Place the unit on a stable, heat resistant
surface, free from cloth, liquids and any other ammable materials. Place the unit with ample
space all the way around it, and far enough away from the wall, to allow heat to ow without
damage to cabinets and walls.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION
• The ceramic bowl gets hot. When in use, always use oven gloves or potholders when
touching any outer or inner surface of the appliance.
• If there is a power outage 2 hours or less, the slow cooker will resume cooking and continue
for the remaining amount of time programmed. If the power was out longer than 2 hours the
time will ash “----” to indicate that the food should be discarded. If you are not sure how
long the slow cooker has been off, discard the food.
• During the rst few minutes of use, you may notice smoke and a slight odour. This is caused
by oil that may have been used during manufacturing of the unit and will not affect the
performance.
• Do not add cold food if the ceramic bowl is hot, and vice versa. The ceramic material is not
designed to handle sudden changes in temperature.
• Ensure that the rubber gasket is tted around the lid when using the appliance. The locking
mechanism will not seal properly without the rubber gasket.
• When tting the rubber gasket, make sure that the seal is oriented downwards. (A)
LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE LID
1. Place the ceramic bowl into the cooking base. Then place the lid,
with tted around the lid.
2. Lift up both handles and locking wires and t the locking wires
onto the hooks, on the glass lid. Once tted, ensure that the
handles do not remain pulled up as this open position prevents
the lid from being securely locked into place (B).
3. Push the handles down to lock the lid into place, and to ensure
the lid is perfectly sealed (C). Always make sure the handles are in
the locked position before lifting the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Always carry the slow cooker by the cooking base
handles. Make sure you carefully grasp the bottom part, as well as
the top part of the handles, which serves the locking mechanism,
to avoid unlocking the lid unexpectedly while carrying. Never lift
the slow cooker by the lid handle. Detach the temperature probe
before lifting the slow cooker.
4. To unlock, lift the top part of the handles upwards into an open, unlocked position.
Then push the locking wires downwards around the handles.
