IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
1.Read all instructions before using.
2.Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs. The lid handle may get hot while cooking; use of an oven mitt while handling is advised.
3.To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or heating base in water or other liquid.
4.Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
5.Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow unit to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
6.Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug or after the appliance malfunctions or has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to JCS/THG, LLC (see warranty) for examination, repair, or adjustment.
7.The use of accessory attachments not recommended by JCS/THG, LLC may cause fire, electrical shock, or injury.
8.Do not use outdoors.
9.Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch heated surfaces.
10.Do not place heating base unit on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.
11.Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids. Always use hot pads when moving your heated slow cooker.
12.Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
13.Always attach plug to appliance first, then plug cord into wall outlet. To disconnect, slide control to OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.
14.DO NOT expose empty crockery to high heat. Always ensure there is liquid or food inside crockery to prevent potential cracking.
15.To prevent cracking, NEVER IMMERSE crockery in water or place under running water if crockery has been left EMPTY on a heated stovetop or in a heated oven for an extended period of time. Allow to cool down before immersing in water.
16.To prevent potential cracking, NEVER freeze water or water based foods in the VersaWare™ slow cooker stoneware.
17.ALWAYS use the enclosed HEAT DIFFUSER when cooking on ELECTRIC STOVETOPS or breakage may result.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
No
A short
CORD MAY BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE SLOW COOKER. The extension cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over unintentionally.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical shock, this plug is intended to fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the
plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature or modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some countertop and table surfaces, such as Corian® and other surfaces, are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by certain appliances. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your slow cooker to prevent possible damage to the surface.
NOTE: During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and will not recur after a few uses.
NOTE: Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth glass cook top stove, countertop, table, or other surface. Due to the nature of the stoneware, the rough bottom surface may scratch some surfaces if caution is not used. Always place protective padding under stoneware before setting on table or countertop.
