BEFORE FIRST USE
IMPORTANT
Solid surface countertops can be easily scratched, cracked, scorched, or damaged, especially when exposed to heat. To prevent
damage, the following precautions should be observed when using this product:
•
Always use a trivet under heat generating sources such as Slow Cookers, Toaster Ovens, Skillets, etc.
•
Do not place hot pans, pots, ceramic or stoneware inserts, etc. directly on the countertop surface.
•
Slow Cooker stoneware inserts have a rough bottom. To avoid scratching surfaces, always place the stoneware insert on a heat
resistant placemat or trivet.
During the first few minutes of initial use, you may notice smoke and/or a slight odor. This is normal and should quickly disappear. It will
not recur after appliance has been used a few more times.
For your safety, always read and understand the Use and Care Manual before attempting to use any electric appliance.
