HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER
• Place the Cooking Pot into the heating base, add your ingredients and cover with the lid. Plug in your slow cooker.
• Use Temperature Control Dial to select High/Low/Warm setting and then press timer buttons "-/+" to set cooking time. Timer counts up in 15 minutes
increments. For faster time selection, hold down "-/+" buttons. By selecting temperature without selecting the desired time, the slow cooker operates
continually in that mode without a defined shut off time. Select the time based on the length of time indicated in the recipe.
• When unit reaches allocated cooking time, unit will default to “Auto Keep Warm”.
• To cancel the cooking timer, press CANCEL TIMER button. The Slow Cooker will continue to operate in the selected mode.
• To stop cooking, rotate Temperature Dial to WARM or OFF setting.
• Turn off slow cooker by rotating the knob counter-clockwise to OFF.
• The Cooking Pot can be used on the stove top (electric, gas or induction) to sauté and sear food. The Cooking Pot can then be transferred to the Heating Base to slow cook.
• The Cooking Pot can be used in the oven without the Glass Lid.
NOTE:
Use pot holders when transferring Cooking Pot.
NOTE:
The WARM setting is ONLY for keeping food warm that is already at cooked temperature. DO NOT cook or REHEAT on the WARM setting.
We do not recommend using the WARM setting for more than 4 hours.
USAGE NOTES
• If the main power has been interrupted (power cut), the display and lights will default to off setting when the power is restored; settings will have been lost.
As a result, the food may be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the power was off, we suggest you discard the food inside.
• If desired, you can manually switch to the WARM setting when your recipe has finished cooking, by turning the knob to WARM.
• To avoid over or under-cooking, always fill the cooking bowl ½ to ¾ full and follow the recommended cooking times.
• Always cook with the lid on for the recommended time. To allow the heat to build up efficiently, do not remove the lid during the first two hours of cooking.
• Always wear pot holders when handling the lid or removable cooking bowl.
• Unplug when cooking has finished and before cleaning.
