Cover Cooking Pot Roasting Rack Heating Base BEFORE USING FOR THE FIRST TIME Please check all packaging material carefully before discarding. Accessory parts may be contained within the packaging material. Before using, wash the cooking pot, cover, and roasting rack as directed in the "Cleaning your 6 Qt. Versatility™ Cooker" section of this manual. Wipe the non-stick finish of the slow cooker heating base with a damp cloth and dry. USING YOUR 6 QT. VERSATILITY™ COOKER To Use as a Slow Cooker: 1. Place heating base on dry, level, heat-resistant surface away from any edge. 2. Place foods into cooking pot, cover and place cooking pot onto heating base. If you wish to brown or precook any foods before slow cooking, place cooking pot directly on range top over medium heat. After foods are browned or cooked, transfer cooking pot to heating base. NOTE: Use only plastic, rubber, wooden, or non-metal cooking tools in the cooking pot. Use of metal cooking tools will scratch the non-stick surface. 3. Attach cord to base, then plug cord into a 120 volt, AC electric outlet only. The heating base will beep when plugged in. Nothing will show on the display until the "POWER" button is pressed. 4. Press the "POWER" button. "SEL" will be displayed and "LO" temperature setting is indicated with a flashing light. If you do not select a setting within 5 seconds, the slow cooker will default to "LO," 9 hours. 5. Press "TEMP" to select "HI," "LO," keep warm "WM" or "Griddle" setting. Note: Only "HI" or "LO" settings are available for programmed cooking times. Any time the "TEMP" button is pressed, the time will reset to the default for that setting; "LO," 9 hours and "HI," 5 hours. English - 3
