To Use as a Slow Cooker:
1.
Place heating base on dry, level, heat-resistant surface away from any edge.
2.
Place foods into cooking pot, cover and place cooking pot onto heating base. If
you wish to brown or precook any foods before slow cooking, place cooking pot
directly on range top over medium heat. After foods are browned or cooked,
transfer cooking pot to heating base. NOTE: Use only plastic, rubber, wooden,
or non-metal cooking tools in the cooking pot. Use of metal cooking tools will
scratch the non-stick surface.
3.
Attach cord to base, then plug cord into a 120 volt, AC electric outlet only. The
heating base will beep when plugged in. Nothing will show on the display until
the "POWER" button is pressed.
4.
Press the "POWER" button. "SEL" will be displayed and "LO" temperature
setting is indicated with a flashing light. If you do not select a setting within 5
seconds, the slow cooker will default to "LO," 9 hours.
5.
Press "TEMP" to select "HI," "LO," keep warm "WM" or "Griddle" setting. Note:
Only "HI" or "LO" settings are available for programmed cooking times. Any time
the "TEMP" button is pressed, the time will reset to the default for that setting;
"LO," 9 hours and "HI," 5 hours.
6.
Press "TIME" button to scroll up to desired cooking time. You cannot program
the Versatility™ Slow Cooker to cook for longer than 12 hours. Note: The time
can be cycled from 1-12 hours. The clock starts at the default time; press the
"TIME" button past 12 hours to cycle to 1 hour.
•
The timer, once set, will count down in minutes. If the "TIME" button is
pressed at any point, the time will cycle up to the next whole hour, and
then will increase in 1 hour increments.
7.
Press "COOK" to start the cooking cycle. If "COOK" hasn't been pressed within
5 seconds, the base will beep 5 times, indicating that it has begun the cooking
cycle. When the cooking cycle is completed, the program will shift to the keep
warm "WM" setting and timer will count up from zero showing the elapsed time
on warm. Note: The keep warm "WM" setting will automatically shut off after 24
hours of heating.
8.
Press the "POWER" button to turn the appliance off. Pressing "POWER" at any
point in any cooking cycle, or keep warm "WM," will turn the appliance off. All
settings will then be reset back to default when power is turned back on. No
previous settings are saved when the 6 Qt. Versatility™ Cooker is powered off.
9.
Slow cooker base offers heat settings of keep warm "WM," "LO," "HI," and
"GRIDDLE." "WM" should only be used to keep cooked foods warm for serving,
whereas "LO" and "HI" are to be used for actual cooking of foods. NOTE: DO
NOT USE THE KEEP WARM "WM" SETTING FOR ACTUAL COOKING OF
RAW FOODS AS THE SLOW COOKER WILL NOT GET HOT ENOUGH TO
COOK FOODS. DO NOT USE THE GRIDDLE SETTING FOR SLOW
COOKING AS OVERCOOKING WILL OCCUR.
