1. Read all instructions before using.

The lid handle may get hot while cooking, use of an oven mitt while
handling is advised.

ing unit in water or other liquid. CAUTION: Never submerge the heat-
ing base in water or other liquid.

children.
5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Allow to cool

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user-serviceable parts
inside. Do not attempt to service this product. Do not immerse base in
water or other liquid. A short power-supply cord is provided to reduce the
hazards resulting from entanglement or tripping over a longer cord. AN
EXTENSION CORD MAY BE USED WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE
MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS
THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE CROCK-POT
extension cord should not be allowed to drape over the counter or table-
top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
NOTE: During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor
may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and will
not recur after a few uses.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider
than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock,
this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only
one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do
not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the
AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some countertops, especially the Corian
other surfaces, are not designed to withstand the slow heat generated by
your Crock-Pot ® brand slow cooker. On such surfaces we recommend the
use of a heat-resistance pad or trivet. The manufacturer is not liable for any
damage caused to such surfaces.
