Use and Care Manual

TIPS FOR SLOW COOKING (cont.)
 There is an area on the base of the ceramic pot that has to remain unglazed for
manufacturing purposes. This unglazed area is porous, therefore will soak up water,
this should be avoided.
 Do not switch the slow cooker on when the ceramic pot is empty or out of the base.
CARE & CLEANING
Always make sure the slow cooker is unplugged and POWERED OFF before storing away
or cleaning. Make sure the unit has cooled down completely before cleaning.
 The ceramic insert is dishwasher safe or can also be cleaned with warm soapy water.
To remove any foods that have been cooked onto the bottom of the pot, simply
soak overnight in soapy water and rinse the next day.
 Do not place a hot or warm ceramic insert into a cold environment or it may result in
cracking.
 The exterior of the slow cooker can be wiped with a damp cloth and dried. DO NOT
use harsh abrasive cleaner or scouring pad to clean any part of the slow cooker as
this will damage the surfaces.
 Wash the glass lid by hand in warm, soapy water once it has cooled down to room
temperature. Do not place a hot or warm glass lid into a cold environment or it may
result in cracking.
 Do not use the stoneware pot to store food in the refrigerator, and then reheat in
the base unit. The sudden temperature change may crack the pot.
 Avoid hitting the stoneware pot and glass lid against the faucet or other hard
surfaces.
 Do not use stoneware pot or glass lid if chipped, cracked, or severely scratched.
WARNING: NEVER SUBMERGE THE BASE UNIT OR CORD INTO WATER OR ANY OTHER
LIQUID OR THIS MAY DAMAGE THE SLOW COOKER.
