PREPARING FOR USE
Before you use your Crockpot
slow cooker, remove all packaging components and wash the lid and stoneware with warm
®
soapy water and dry thoroughly.
IMPORTANT NOTES
•
During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke/odor may be detected. This is normal with many heating
appliances and will not recur after a few uses.
•
Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by certain appliances.
Do not set the heated unit on a finished wood table. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your slow cooker to
prevent possible damage to the surface.
•
Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth glass cook top stove, countertop, table, or
other surface. Due to the nature of the stoneware, the rough bottom surface may scratch some surfaces if caution is not
used. Always place protective padding under stoneware before setting on table or countertop.
ASSEMBLY
1.
Place stoneware into the heating base.
2.
Lower the lid onto the stoneware (see Figure 1).
HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER
1.
Place the stoneware into the heating base, add your ingredients to the stoneware and cover with the lid.
2.
Plug in your slow cooker. You will have to reduce the cooking time of the recipe if the stoneware is less than three
quarters full.
3.
Press the desired cook setting button (HIGH or LOW). WARM is also an option that can be selected, although it is only
intended to keep food warm and not to cook.

4.
Press the timer button to select the desired time setting. Please note the following
are the pre-programmed times that automatically appear based on the cook setting
selected and are adjustable:
WARM = 6 hours
LOW= 10 hours
HIGH= 6 hours
5.
Once all selections are made the corresponding light illuminates, the slow cooker
heats, and the internal timer starts counting down time in 1 minute increments.
6.
When the cooking time has completed, the slow cooker automatically shifts to the WARM
setting and the WARM light illuminates. The timer will display the amount of time the
unit has been on WARM, and will shut off after six hours.
USAGE NOTES
•
If there is a power outage while cooking, when the power is restored the unit will be off.
All slow cooker settings have been cleared and must be reset. However, the food may
be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the power was out, we suggest you discard the food.
•
Do not overfill stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill stoneware higher than ¾ full.
•
Always cook, with the lid on, for the recommended time. Do not remove the lid during the first two hours of cooking, to
allow the heat to build up efficiently.
•
Always wear oven mitts when handling the lid or stoneware.
•
Unplug when cooking is done and before cleaning.
•
Removable stoneware is ovenproof and microwave safe. Do not use removable stoneware on gas or electric hob or
under grill. Refer to chart below.

HINTS AND TIPS
PASTA AND RICE:
•
For best rice results, use long grain converted rice or a special rice as the recipe suggests. If the rice is not cooked
completely after the suggested time, add an extra 1 to 1½ cups of liquid per cup of cooked rice and continue cooking for
20 to 30 minutes.
•
For best pasta results, first partially cook the pasta in a pot of boiling water until just tender. Add the pasta to the slow
cooker during the last 30 minutes of cook time.
BEANS:
•
Beans must be softened completely before combining with sugar and/or acidic foods. Sugar and acid have a hardening
effect on beans and will prevent softening.
•
Dried beans, especially red kidney beans, should be boiled before adding to a recipe.
•
Fully cooked canned beans may be used as a substitute for dried beans.
VEGETABLES:
•
Many vegetables benefit from slow cooking and are able to develop their full flavour. They tend not to overcook in your
slow cooker as they might in your oven or on your hob.
•
When cooking recipes with vegetables and meat, place vegetables in slow cooker before meat. Vegetables usually cook
more slowly than meat in the slow cooker.
•
Place vegetables near the sides or bottom of the stoneware to facilitate cooking.
