Cleaning
IMPORTANT
:
Never Immerse cooking base in water or other liquids.
1.
Always unplug and allow to completely cool before cleaning.
Wash stoneware pot and glass lid in warm, soapy water. If food sticks to the
stoneware pot, fill with warm, soapy water and allow it to soak before cleaning
with a nonabrasive scouring pad.
NOTE:
Do not use abrasive cleaners on the stoneware pot.
NOTE:
Both the stoneware pot and glass lid are dishwasher safe.
2. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
3. Wipe interior and exterior of the cooking base with a soft, slightly damp cloth
or sponge. Never use abrasive cleansers or scouring pads to clean the cooking
base, as they may damage the surfaces.
4. Allow to dry thoroughly before storing.
Storing
Make sure that the appliance is thoroughly dry. Never wrap the cord tightly
around the appliance; keep it loosely coiled. Placing the lid on upside-down
for storage can help save space.
HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
General Tips:
• The stoneware pot should always be filled from
½
to
3⁄4
full, to avoid over and
under cooking.
- When only half full, check for doneness 1 to 2 hours before recommended
cooking time.
-To avoid spillovers, do not fill slow cooker more than
3⁄4
full.
• Always slow cook with the lid on.
- Do not open lid during first 2 hours of cooking; this allows heat to rise efficiently.
- Open the lid as little as possible to assure even cooking. Every time the lid is
removed, the cooking time increases by 15–20 minutes.
• Most recipes can be cooked on either HIGH or LOW. Many recipes will give the
time for both.
- Low: Often used for longer cooking times, 8–10 hours, or less tender cuts
of meat.
