To prevent electrical shock, personal injury or property damage, read and follow all instructions and warnings.

Electricity Precautions

To protect against electric shock, do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric parts in water or other liquids.

Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug.

Do not use electric parts outdoors, or place them on or near a gas or electric burner, in a heated oven, refrigerator or freezer.

Do not plug cord into wall outlet unless crockery cooker is set in OFF position.

Always turn control to OFF and unplug the appliance from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.

Your crockery cooker has a short cord as a safety precaution to avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement. To avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement, position the cord so that it does not hang over the edge of the counter, table or other flat surface area.

While use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one, make sure the cord has the same or higher wattage as the crockery cooker (wattage is stamped on the underside of the crockery cooker base). To avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement, position the cord so that it does not hang over the edge of the counter, table or other flat surface area.

Use an electrical outlet that accommodates the polarized plug on the crockery cooker. On a polarized plug, one blade of the plug is wider than the other. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet or extension cord, reverse the plug. If the plug still does not fit fully, contact a qualified electrician. Do not alter the plug.

Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or extension cord feels hot.

Keep the cord away from hot parts of the appliance and hot surfaces during operation.
