Using Your Slow Cooker

1. 

Place the crockery bowl in the 

slow cooker. Then place the glass 

lid on top.

2. 

Place the clip latches up and 

over, until they fit into the hooks on 

the lid. 

3. 

Once the latches are in the hooks, 

the handles on the cooking base 

will be in the open, unlocked 

position. 

4. 

Lock both the handles by pushing 

down on them. This will lock the 

lid in place. Always make sure the 

handles are securely in the locked 

position before moving the slow 

cooker. 

 NOTE

Always carry the slow cooker 

from the cooking base handles. 

Make sure to securely grasp the 

bottom portion of the handles to 

avoid the handles separating or 

unlocking unexpectedly while 

carrying. Never lift the slow 

cooker by the lid handle. Detach 

temperature probe before 

carrying slow cooker.

5. 

To unlock, push up the top part 

of the handles into the open, 

unlocked position. Then swing the 

locking wires down and around to 

the slow cooker.

 NOTE

When unlocking, keep your 

fingers from between the top part 

of the handles and the edge of 

the crockery bowl.

 CAUTION

Never lock lid into place while 

cooking. The locking lid clips are 

only to be used to transport your 

slow cooker from one place to 

another after cooking is complete. 

COOKING SETTINGS

 

The Temp Control™ Slow Cooker has 

three cooking settings to make cooking 

anything you plan to cook, easy. 

1. 

PROGRAM SETTING

 Program your 

preferred amount of cooking time 

and the slow cooker automatically 

shifts to Keep Warm at the end of 

the selected cooking time. 

2. 

PROBE SETTING

 Perfect If you are 

cooking a large cut of meat or 

using a recipe that requires food to 

reach a certain temperature.

3. 

MANUAL SETTING

 To slow cook the 

traditional way without setting a 

time, select traditional High or Low 

slow cook settings. 

 NOTE

Although Keep Warm will 

operate for up to 14 hours, it is 

not recommended to keep food 

warm on this setting for more than 

4 hours.
