The temperature, size and density of ingredients will affect cooking times. 
Check cooked foods with a meat thermometer, if possible, to make sure 
they reach an internal temperature of 160˚F. 

Don’t Peek!

 

Remember to keep the lid in place while slow cooking.  Each time you 
remove the lid, the temperature drops, extending the cooking time.

CLEANING AND CARE

Unplug slow cooker before cleaning. Failure to do so may result in risk of 
serious injury and electric shock.

Before Cleaning

1.

 

UNPLUG

 – Carefully unplug the slow cooker’s power cord from 

electrical outlet by firmly grasping the plug.  

2.

 

REMOVE LEFTOVERS

 – Remove any leftover food and place in 

storage containers; refrigerate. Do not store leftovers in the crock. 

3.

 

COOL

 – Let the slow cooker cool completely before attempting any 

cleaning.  The stainless steel base will be hot after use.  

Cleaning the Slow Cooker

• 

Allow the slow cooker to cool and then remove the crock.

• 

Wash the crock and lid in the dishwasher, if desired. Or, wash in hot 

soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

• 

Wipe the slow cooker base with a clean, damp cloth. DO NOT use 

abrasive cleaners or scouring pads, as they may scratch the surface of 
the slow cooker. DO NOT immerse the slow cooker base, cord or plug in 
water. 

• 

Place crock in slow cooker base and put lid on top. 

Note:

  Do not operate the slow cooker without the ceramic crock in place.
