Operation

First Time Use

Place 6-8 cups of cold water into the ceramic bowl. Select high setting and cook for approximately 20-30 minutes. Turn slow

cooker switch to ‘off’ position and allow water to cool down completely. Discard this water. Rinse ceramic bowl, dry and

replace the ceramic bowl in slow cooker.

protective coating, placed on the heating elements, to protect the heating elements during shipping.

automatically switch to low setting after an initial period.

NOTE. Slow cooker will operate until switched off. Do not overcook food. Monitor cooking.

Tips

Always cook with the lid on. Do not remove the lid often when cooking, as this will prolong the cooking time.

Do not overfill the ceramic bowl. Boiling liquids may overflow and cause personal injury or damage to the appliance or

cooking area.

Always place vegetables into ceramic bowl first when cooking with meat, as these will take longer to cook than the meat.
