CROCK-POT® SLOW COOKER COMPONENTS Fig. 1 Lid Lifting Handle Removable Lid Stoneware Heating Base Temperature Setting PREPARING YOUR CROCK-POT® SLOW COOKER FOR USE Before you use your slow cooker, remove all packaging components and wash the lid and stoneware with warm soapy water and dry thoroughly.
HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER 1. Place the stoneware into the heating base, add your ingredients to the stoneware, and cover with the lid (See Fig. 1). 2. Plug in your Crock-Pot® slow cooker and select the temperature setting. Refer to your specific recipe for precise cook times. NOTE: Some models feature a WARM setting. WARM is ONLY for keeping already cooked food warm. DO NOT cook on the WARM setting. We do not recommend using the WARM setting for more than 4 hours. 3.
HOW TO CLEAN YOUR SLOW COOKER • • • • • ALWAYS turn your slow cooker off, unplug it from the electrical outlet, and allow it to cool before cleaning. The lid and stoneware can be washed in the dishwasher or with hot, soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaning compounds or scouring pads. A cloth, sponge, or rubber spatula will usually remove residue. To remove water spots and other stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner or vinegar.
MEATS: • Trim fat, rinse well, and pat meat dry with paper towels. • Browning meat in a separate skillet or grill pan allows fat to be drained off before slow cooking and also adds greater depth of flavour. • Meat should be positioned so that it rests in the stoneware without touching the lid. • For smaller or larger cuts of meat, alter the amount of vegetables or potatoes so that the stoneware is always filled to the minimum fill line.
