• Do not operate the appliance if it has a damaged power cord or plug, if wires are
exposed, if it malfunctions, if it is dropped or damaged, or if the motor housing is
dropped in or exposed to water.
• This appliance has no user-serviceable parts. Do not attempt to examine or repair
this appliance yourself. Please review the Warranty Policy on Page 6.
• Do not put any stress on the power cord where it connects to the appliance, as the
power cord could fray and break.
SPECIAL INSTRUCTIONS:
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risk of becoming entangled in or
tripping over a longer cord. An extension cord is not recommended for use with this
appliance, but if one must be used:
− The marked electrical rating must be at least as great as that of the appliance.
− Arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or
tabletop where it can be tripped over or pulled.
WARNING: This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug (one blade is
wider than the other blade) to reduce the risk of electrical shock. This is a
safety feature. The plug will fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If you
are unable to insert the plug into the electrical outlet, try reversing the plug. If the
plug still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Never use the plug with an
extension cord unless you can fully insert the plug into the extension cord. Do not
alter the plug. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug.
CAUTION: DO NOT USE THIS APPLIANCE TO COOK WHOLE, RAW MEATS. Whole
chickens, fish, meats should be cut down into chunks as well as large vegetables.
Always defrost any frozen foods before placing into Slow Cooker.
NOTE: Per the US Department of Agriculture's Food Safety and Inspection Service, all
meats (fish, poultry, beef, etc.) should be cooked thoroughly before consuming,
determine the internal temperature of meats using a food thermometer (not
included). USDA website can provide food temperature information.
