The Control Knob on the slow cooker offers Low and High temperature settings

serving temperature.
The Keep Warm setting should only be used after a recipe has been thoroughly
cooked. Food should not be reheated on the Keep Warm setting. If food has been
cooked and then refrigerated it must be reheated on Low or High, then switched to
Keep Warm.
CAUTION: The Keep Warm setting should only be used after completely cooking
a recipe according to the instructions. The food must be hot enough to prevent
bacterial growth before using the Keep Warm setting. Do not use the Keep Warm
setting to reheat any food that has been refrigerated or frozen. Visit foodsafety.gov
