Cooking in a slow cooker is easy but different from conventional methods. Take a few minutes and read “How to Use” and “Tips for Slow Cooking.”

You’ll soon be convinced that a slow cooker is a necessity. There are also many slow cooker recipe books avail- able in the library or book store. If you have any questions, call our toll-free customer service number. We’ll be glad to help.

If You’ve Used a Slow Cooker Before

You are probably ready to develop new recipes for use in your slow cooker. If the recipe was originally cooked in a saucepan on the stovetop, or slow roasted in the oven, adapting the recipe should be easy.

Our slow cooker heats from the sides. The base slowly raises the temperature of the pan. Whether cooked on Low or High, the final temperature of the food is the same, about 200°F. The only differ- ence is the amount of time the cooking process takes.

How to Use Your Slow Cooker

1.Before first use, wash the glass lid, plastic lid and cooking vessel in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry. Do not immerse base in water.

2.Prepare recipe according to instruc- tions. Place food in cooking vessel and cover with glass lid.

3.Plug cord into outlet. Select temper- ature setting.

4.When finished, turn to Off ( O ) and unplug base.

5.Let the cooking vessel and glass lid cool before washing.
