Before First Use • Remove all packing material and become familiar with the slow cooker (Fig. A). • Read the instructions carefully before use. • Clean the cover with a damp, soapy cloth. Do not immerse the cover in water. Wash the removable cooking pot and utensil holder in warm, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.

Use to identify or describe the food in the slow cooker. Any markings made on the board can simply be removed with the eraser on the marker cap. To extend the life of the marker, make sure the cap is always tightly closed. • Removable utensil holder. Easily lift from the cover and use as a spoon rest.
How to Use 1. Place the slow cooker on a dry, level surface so the temperature control knob is facing out. Pull the cord out of the built-in cord storage port on the back of the unit (Fig. C). 2. Lift the cover open and verify the cooking pot is in place. Also, be sure the condensation collector is in position (Fig. D, page 6). Caution! Never add water directly into the slow cooker base or cook without the removable cooking pot in place. 3. Prepare food according to recipe and place into cooking pot.
• Important: Never fill above the MAX fill level indicated in the cooking pot (Fig. A, page 3). • When transporting the slow cooker, push the cord into the built-in cord storage port on the back of the unit, and then secure the cord end in the clip (Fig. C, page 4). Care and Cleaning 1. Remove plug from wall outlet and allow slow cooker to cool completely before cleaning. 2. Wash the removable cooking pot in warm water and a mild detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
8. To prevent unpleasant odors from lingering, store the slow cooker with the carrying handle in the unlocked position and the cover detached. Place the cover on the slow cooker base so the hinges rest on the hinge slots (Fig. A, page 3). Another option is to place a folded dish cloth between the cover and base so the cover is slightly open. Cover Care and Use Instructions Caution! The glass in your cover may break for no apparent reason if you fail to follow these instructions.
