1. Place the stoneware into the heating base, add your ingredients to
the stoneware, and cover with the lid.
2. Plug in your Crock-Pot ® slow cooker. The POWER light flashes
indicating that the unit is plugged in, but not turned on.
3. Press the SELECT button to choose a programmed time and temperature.
Cook time options include 4 or 6 hours on HIGH, or 8 or 10 hours on
LOW. The corresponding light illuminates, the slow cooker heats, and the
internal timer starts counting down the time.
NOTE:
WARM is ONLY for keeping already cooked food at the
perfect serving temperature until you are ready to eat. DO NOT cook
on the WARM setting.
4. When the cooking time has completed, the Crock-Pot ® slow cooker
automatically shifts to the WARM setting and the WARM light illuminates.
NOTE:
We do not recommend using the WARM setting for more
than 4 hours.
5. To turn the Crock-Pot ® slow cooker off, press the OFF button and
unplug the unit from the outlet.
USAGE NOTES:
• If there is a power outage, when the power is restored the display and
lights blink. 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.
