Consumer Safety Information
This product is intended for household use only.
This appliance is equipped with a polarized plug. This type of plug has one blade wider than the other. The plug will fit into an electrical outlet only one way. This is a safety feature intended to help reduce the risk of electrical shock. If you are unable to insert the plug into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If the plug should still fail to fit, contact a qualified electrician to replace the obsolete outlet. Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose of the polarized plug by modifying the plug in any way.
To avoid an electrical circuit overload do not use a high wattage appliance on the same circuit with the slow cooker.
The length of the cord used on this appli- ance was selected to reduce the hazards of becoming tangled in, or tripping over a longer cord. If a longer cord is necessary an approved extension cord may be used. The electrical rating of the extension cord must be equal to or greater than the rating of the slow cooker. Care must be taken to arrange the extension cord so that it will not drape over the countertop or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or accidental- ly tripped over.
Do not cook in the Double Bowls unless water is in the crock.
Do not use the slow cooker with only half of the Double Bowl; both must be used. CAUTION: Keep the Lid Latch away from children. This feature, available on selected models (see page 3), is not a toy.
