IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,
including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or cooking unit in
water or other liquid. CAUTION: Never submerge heating unit in water or
other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts. Unplug from outlet when not in
use and before cleaning.
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 to Rival
®
(see warranty) for examination, repair, or adjustment.
7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may
cause fire, electrical shock or injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.
9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch heated surfaces.
10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or
other hot liquids. Always use hot pads when moving your heated Crock-Pot
®
slow cooker.
12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
13. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as adding refrigerated foods into a
heated pot.
14 To disconnect, turn to off, then remove plug from outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some countertops, especially the Corian
®
brand, and other
surfaces, are not designed to withstand the slow heat generated by your Crock-Pot
®
brand slow cooker. On such surfaces we recommend the use of a heat-resistant pad or
trivet. Rival
®
is not liable for any damage caused to such surfaces.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a
safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user-serviceable parts inside. Power Unit never
needs lubrication. Do not attempt to service this product. Do not immerse base in water or other
liquid. 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 CROCK-POT
®
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.
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.

HOW TO USE YOUR CROCK-POT
®
SLOW COOKER
MPORTANT 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.
1. Vegetables should be thinly sliced and placed near sides or bottom of the
stoneware. Meats generally cook faster than most vegetables.
2. Trim fats and wipe meats well. Season with salt and pepper. Place in cooker on top
of vegetables.
3. For roasts and stews, pour liquid over meat. Use no more liquid than specified in
the recipe. Why? Because in slow cooking, more juices in meats and vegetables are
retained than in conventional cooking.
4. Always cook with cover on, for recommended times.
5. Unplug when cooking is done or before cleaning. Always use hot pads when lifting
the Crock-Pot
®
slow cooker or removing the stoneware for serving.
CAUTION: Always place protective padding under bowl before setting on a table or
countertop.
