User Maintenance Instructions
This appliance requires little maintenance. It contains no user serviceable parts. Do not try to repair it yourself.
Any servicing requiring disassembly other than cleaning, must be performed by a qualified appliance repair
technician.
1. Avoid sudden, extreme temperature changes. For example, do not place a hot glass lid or stoneware liner
into cold water or onto a wet surface.
2. Do not use the stoneware liner to store food in the refrigerator, and then reheat in the base unit.
The sudden temperature change may crack the liner.
3. Avoid hitting the stoneware liner and glass lid against the faucet or other hard surfaces.
4. Do not use stoneware liner or glass lid if chipped, cracked, or severely scratched.
CAUTION: NEVER IMMERSE BASE UNIT OR CORD IN WATER OR OTHER LIQUID.
5. Always unplug and allow to cool completely before cleaning.
6. Both the liner and the glass lid may be cleaned in the dishwasher. To clean by hand, wash the stoneware
liner and glass lid in warm, soapy water.
7. If food sticks to the stoneware liner, fill with warm soapy water and allow to soak before cleaning with a
plastic scouring pad. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
8. Wipe interior and exterior of the base unit with a soft, slightly damp cloth or sponge. Never use abrasive
cleansers or scouring pads to clean the base unit, as they may damage the surfaces.

2. Store appliance in its box or in a clean, dry place.
