or nylon cleaning pads with nonabrasive cleaners. • Never subject the stoneware inserts to sudden changes in temperature. NEVER place them where they can come in cotact with direct heat (e.g., on top of a range or under a broiler). • When removing the stoneware inserts from the heating base, be sure to use pot holders or oven mitts. • Always use pot holders or oven mitts when removing stoneware inserts from cooking base.

3. 4. 5. Plug slow cooker into wall outlet and select LOW or HIGH. When food is ready to be served, turn slow cooker OFF and unplug it from outlet. Remove glass lids. NOTE: The WARM setting should NOT be used to cook foods or reheat refrigerated foods. WARM should be used to maintain the serving temperature of previously cooked foods. CAUTION: When removing glass covers, grasp the designated area on the covers and lift to allow steam to escape before setting cover aside.
HELPFUL HINTS IN USING A SLOW COOKER: • The cover of the slow cooker does not form a tight fit on the stoneware insert but should be centered on the insert for best results. Do not remove the cover unnecessarily – this will result in a major heat loss. • Stirring is not necessary when slow cooking. However, if cooking on HIGH, stirring occasionally will help to distribute flavors throughout the recipe. • For best results, the slow cooker should be at least half-filled.
