Slow Cook Function

WARNING

Food Poisoning Hazard

Do not let food sit for more than one hour before or after cooking.

Doing so can result in food poisoning or sickness.

The SLOW COOK function in the warming drawer cooks food slowly at a low temperature over a long period of time, similar to a countertop slow cooker.

When the warming drawer is installed outdoors, the SLOW COOK function should not be used when the temperature is below 32°F (0°C).

There are 2 settings, Hi and Lo. Guidelines for cooking times are 4 to 5 hours for Hi and 8 to 10 hours for Lo. Smaller quantities of food may require less time, while larger quantities may require more time.

When slow cooking, use serving pans or oven-safe cookware.

Before slow cooking, thaw frozen foods completely.

IMPORTANT: Brown roasts thoroughly before starting to slow cook.

To Use:

1.Push in and turn control knob to the SLOW COOK zone and set the desired temperature, LO or HI. Preheating is not necessary.

2.Place food into warming drawer. Food should be placed directly on the bottom of the warming drawer. Do not use a rack.

3.Close the warming drawer. Be sure that the warming drawer is completely closed during operation.

4.Turn control knob to OFF when finished.
