HOW TO USE THE AUTO FEATURE
AUTO allows you to prepare meals in less time than it would take
on LOW, but not as quickly as on HIGH, allowing more time for
unsupervised cooking. When set on AUTO, the Slow Cooker begins
cooking on HIGH. Once the HIGH temperature is reached, it then
switches automatically to LOW. When using the AUTO cycle, you
are able to initially heat the food faster, shortening the standard
cooking time required for LOW by approximately 25%.
Operating Instructions
1. Prepare recipe according to instructions.
2. Place food in Stoneware Liner and cover with Glass Lid. Do not
fill the Slow Cooker to the brim with food. Always cook with the
Lid on and the Stoneware Liner in position. Remember that
frequent lifting of the Lid during cooking delays the cooking
time. When cooking a meat and vegetable combination,
place the vegetables in the bottom of the Stoneware Liner first.
Then add the meat and other ingredients.
NOTE: The Stoneware Liner CANNOT stand the shock of sudden
temperature changes. Before cooking frozen food, add
some warm liquid. If the Liner is hot, DO NOT add cold
food.
3. Plug cord into a 120V AC outlet.
4. Turn Control Dial to select temperature setting: LOW, HIGH
or AUTO.
5. Cook according to recipe instructions.
CAUTION: The Base Unit will get very warm during cooking. This is
where the heating elements are located. Use pot holders
or oven mitts when moving or handling the unit.
6. When cooking time is complete, turn the Control Dial to the
OFF position, and unplug from electrical outlet.
7. Using oven mitts, carefully remove the Glass Lid by grasping the
Lid Knob and lifting the Lid slightly away from you. This will allow
the steam to escape before removing the Lid.
8. Allow a few seconds for all steam to escape. Then, using oven
mitts, remove the Stoneware Liner from the Base Unit.
9. Allow to cool completely before cleaning, see CLEANING
INSTRUCTIONS.
