POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade 

is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of 

electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a 

polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does 

not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If 

it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt 

to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC 

outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.

POWER CORD INSTRUCTIONS: 

A short power-supply cord is used to reduce the risk resulting from 

it being grabbed by children, becoming entangled in, or tripping 

over a longer cord. 

NOTICES: 
1.   Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the 

prolonged heat generated by certain appliances. Do not set the heated 

unit on a finished wood table. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet 

under your slow cooker to prevent possible damage to the surface.

2.   During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor 

may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and 

will not recur after a few uses.

3.   Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth 

glass cook top stove, countertop, table or other surface. Due to the 

nature of the stoneware, its rough bottom may scratch some surfaces if 

caution is not used. Always place heat resistant protective padding under 

the stoneware before setting on a table, countertop or other surface.

18.  The slow cooker lid is made of tempered glass. 

Always inspect the lid for chips, cracks or any other 
damage. Do not use the glass lid if it is damaged, 
as it may shatter during use.

19.  CAUTION: To protect again electrical shock and 

product damage, do not cook directly in the 
heating base. Cook only in the stoneware provided.

20.  WARNING: Spilled food can cause serious burns. 

Keep appliance and cord away from children. Never 
drape cord over edge of counter, never use outlet 
below counter, and never use with an extension 
cord. 

For appliances with locking lids:
21.  Never attempt to lift or carry this appliance by the 

lid handle. Always use the handles located at each 
side on the base of the appliance.

22.  Do not lock the lid while cooking. Locking the glass 

lid while cooking may lead to glass breakage, which 
can cause injuries.
