Care and Cleaning

1. Unplug and cool completely.
2. Crock and lid are dishwasher-safe. DO NOT use the "SANI"
setting when washing in the dishwasher. "SANI" cycle
temperatures could damage your product.
3. Wipe the base with a soft damp cloth and dry. Do not use
abrasive cleansers which will damage the finish.
4. Clean the temperature sensor probe in hot, soapy water. Rinse
and dry. NOTE: Do not clip lid during storage. Store with lid ajar.

Tips for Slow Cooking

• The crock should be at least half-filled for best results. If only half-
filled, check for doneness 1 to 2 hours earlier than recipe time.
• Stirring is not necessary when slow cooking. Removing glass lid
results in major heat loss and the cooking time may need to be
extended. However, if cooking on HIGH, you may want to stir
occasionally.
• If cooking soups or stews, leave a 2-inch (5.1-cm) space between
the top of the crock and the food so that the recipe can come to a
simmer.
• Many recipes call for cooking all day. If your morning schedule
doesn't allow time to prepare a recipe, do it the night before. Place
all ingredients in crock, cover with lid, and refrigerate overnight. In
the morning, simply place crock in slow cooker.

• Some foods are not suited for extended cooking in a slow cooker.
Pasta, seafood, milk, cream, or sour cream should be added
2 hours before serving. Evaporated milk or condensed soups
are perfect for slow cooking.
• The higher the fat content of meat, the less liquid is needed. If
cooking meat with a high fat content, place thick onion slices
underneath so meat will not sit on (and cook in) fat.
• Slow cookers allow for very little evaporation. If making your
favorite soup, stew, or sauce, reduce liquid called for in original
recipe. If too thick, liquid can be added later.
• If cooking a vegetable-type casserole, there will need to be liquid
in the recipe to prevent scorching on the sides of crock.
• If cooking a recipe with root vegetables, place root vegetables in
the bottom of the crock.
