Cooking WITHOUT the Timer

NOTE: The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) recommends that when cooking anything containing meat in a slow cooker, cook on the High temperature set- ting for up to 2 hours or until the meat reaches 140°F, then reduce to the Low temperature setting. This ensures that the meat will reach food-safe temperatures

in the proper amount of time.

Using the Low temperature setting without the timer

is to be used only for recipes that require a constant

low temperature.

When cooking on the Low setting using the timer, the Slow Cooker will automatically start on High and then drop to Low once the food reaches 140°F.

1.Place the unit on a clean, dry counter.

2.Remove glass lid.
