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.
HOW TO USE THE SLOW COOKER
1. Always cook with the lid on, for the recommended time.
2. Follow recommended cooking times.
3. Do not use the slow cooker stoneware for storage of foods.
4. Do not reheat foods in your slow cooker.
5. Do not set heated unit filled with food on a finished wood table.
6. Unplug when cooking is done and before cleaning.
7. Removable stoneware is ovenproof and microwave safe. Do not use
removable stoneware on gas or electric burner or under broiler.
CAUTION: Always place protective padding under stoneware before
setting on table or countertop.
NOTE: Do not cook or reheat foods on the Warm Setting.
HINTS
• Trim fats and wipe meats well to remove residue. (If meats contain
fats, brown in a separate skillet or broiler and drain well before adding
to cooker.) Season with salt and pepper. Place meat in cooker on top of
vegetables.
• For roasts and stews, pour liquid over meat. Use no more liquid than
specified in the recipe. More juices in meats and vegetables are retained
in slow cooking than in conventional cooking.
• Most vegetables should be thinly sliced or placed near the sides or
bottom of the stoneware. Meats generally cook faster than most
vegetables in a slow cooker.
• Use whole leaf herbs and spices for best and truest flavor for all-day
cooking. If ground herbs and spices are used, they should be stirred in
during the last hour.
• Because there is no direct heat at the bottom, always fill the
stoneware at least half full to conform to recommended times. Small
quantities may be prepared, but cooking time will be affected.
• A specific liquid called for in a recipe may be varied if an equal
quantity is substituted. (Such as substituting a 103⁄4 ounce can of soup
plus 4 ounces of water for a 141⁄2 ounce can of tomatoes OR 1⁄2 cup
beef or chicken broth for 1⁄2 cup of wine.)
• Beans must be softened completely before combining with sugar
and/or acid foods (NOTE: 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. Cover the beans
with 3 times their volume of unsalted water and bring to a boil. Boil
10 minutes, reduce heat, cover and allow to simmer 11⁄2 hours or until
