4.When selected temperature is reached, two beeps will sound. Add ingredients to cooking pot—for best results, do not crowd pot.

5.Once cooking is complete, press START/STOP to stop cooking, or if you’ve browned ingredients as a first step, switch to the SLOW COOK function now. There is no need to press START/STOP again, as the unit is already cooking.

5.Press the START/STOP button to begin cooking. Selected time and temperature setting (High, Low, Simmer or Warm) will be displayed.

NOTE: If you browned ingredients before switching to slow cooking, the unit is already on, so Step 5 is not necessary.

6.When slow cooking on High, Low or Simmer, the unit will beep five times at the end of the cooking time and will automatically switch to the Keep Warm setting for 8 hours.

7.When Warm time elapses, one beep will sound and heater will turn off.

6.Carefully lift lid away from you and place food on rack, starting in the middle and working your way out. Be sure to cover pot with lid again.

7.When cooking time is completed, the unit will beep five times and the heater will turn off automatically.

8.Carefully remove food from pot with spoon, fork or tongs.
