Crock-Pot SCV803SS-033, Owner'S Manual

Page: 2 / 16

This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this product.
A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from
entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. AN EXTENSION CORD MAY BE USED
WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS
GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE SLOW COOKER.
The extension cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop
where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
IMPORTANT NOTE: 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.
NOTE: 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.
NOTE: 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, the rough bottom surface may scratch some surfaces if caution is not
used. Always place protective padding under stoneware before setting on table or
countertop.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using.

in water or other liquid. CAUTION: Never submerge the heating unit in water or
other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Turn control to “OFF” before unplugging from wall outlet. Unplug from outlet
when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking
off parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the
appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance

12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
13. To disconnect, turn control to “OFF”, then remove plug from wall outlet.
14. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as adding refrigerated foods or cold
liquids into a heated pot.
15. Keep 6 inches from the wall and 6 inches clear from all sides.
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 feels warm do not use that outlet.
