1. Read all instructions before using.
2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. The lid handle may get hot
while cooking, use of an oven mitt while handling is advised.
3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or
cooking unit in water or other liquids. CAUTION: Never submerge the heating unit
in water or other liquid.
4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow unit to cool before
putting on or taking off parts.
6. Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance
malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner.

shock or injury.
8. Do not use outdoors.

hot oil or other hot liquids. Always use hot pads when moving.
12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce
the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one
way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit,
contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC
outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user-serviceable parts inside.
Power Unit never needs lubrication. Do not attempt to service this product. Do
not immerse base in water or other liquid. A short power supply cord is provided
to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer
cord. AN EXTENSION CORD MAY BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE
MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE
ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE Slow Cooker. The extension cord should not be
allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children
or tripped over.
NOTE: During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be
detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and will not recur after a few
uses.
