2. Staining of the non-stick finish may result from improper cleaning or overheating. To remove stains, use a commercial
cleaner such as Dip-It® coffeepot destainer. Follow package directions for non-stick cookware.
After cleaning, wash non-stick finish thoroughly with hot soapy water, rinse and dry. Recondition non-stick finish with
cooking oil before using. Do not use bleach to clean non-stick finish; it will permanently fade the color. Dip-It® coffeepot
destainer can be found in most grocery or hardware stores.
GRILLING ON ELECTRIC SLOW COOKER BASE
Small quantities of food can be cooked on the non-stick coated surface of the slow cooker heating base. Follow the guidelines
below. Due to the low wattage of the base, cooking time will be longer than using a large griddle or skillet.
Clean Before Using
Before grilling, wipe non-stick surface of base with a damp soapy cloth, then wipe several times with a clean damp cloth to
remove soap residue. Wipe dry with a soft cloth.
CAUTION:
To prevent personal injury or electric shock, do not immerse slow cooker base, its cord or plugs in water or other
liquid.
Condition Non-Stick Finish
Just before using base as a grill, condition the non-stick finish with a teaspoon of cooking oil. Wipe oil evenly over finish,
leaving a light film of oil.
Do Not
use shortening or butter to condition finish.
Grilling Instructions
Follow recommended heat setting and cooking times for specific foods as listed in Grilling Chart. Always preheat grill base
for 5 minutes as recommended in chart. A small amount of butter or margarine may be used when grilling food to add flavor
and aid in browning if desired. Always use plastic, rubber or wooden cook tools on non-stick finish to prevent scratching.
Unplug cord from electric outlet to turn base off.
Clean After Grilling
Always unplug cord from electric outlet and allow base to cool before cleaning. With a spoon or baster, remove any fat or
grease that has collected on the grill surface. Wipe oil residue from base with paper toweling.
Wipe non-stick finish with a damp soapy dishcloth or nylon-scouring pad recommended for non-stick finishes such as Dobie®.
Clean finish thoroughly. Wipe base several times with a clean damp cloth to remove soap residue, then dry with a soft cloth.
CAUTION:
To prevent personal injury or electric shock, do not immerse slow cooker base, its cord or plugs in water or other
liquid.
If a tacky oil film forms on the non-stick finish of base, wipe with a dry cloth to remove. If this residue is not removed, it will
adhere to the finish when reheated and become impossible to remove.
