IMPORTANT GUIDELINES

• The slow cooker should always be at least half-full for best cooking results; however, it should
never be more than three-quarters full (about 1 inch from the top rim).
• Because the slow cooker heats and cooks at low temperatures, food should be at room
temperature before it goes into the cooker. If the food is at refrigerator temperature, add
30 minutes to your projected cooking time.
• Any leftover food should be removed from the porcelain pot and stored in containers for up to
2 days, or be frozen for future use.
• NEVER use the slow cooker to reheat food, as potentially harmful bacteria could develop
during the slow cooking process. Remove food from the porcelain pot and reheat in a heat-safe
container on a stovetop, or in an oven or microwave.
• Do not put the hot porcelain pot directly on a table or countertop.
• Do not add frozen food, such as meat or vegetables, to the pot during the slow cooking
process. Heat them to room temperature before adding.
• For food safety reasons, whole chickens should not be cooked in a slow cooker. They may not
reach a safe internal temperature in the proper amount of time.
• Do not touch the sides of the slow cooker porcelain pot or base while food is cooking.
• Always use potholders or oven mitts when removing the lid or the porcelain pot from the base
after cooking.
