Programmable, 5-Setting Cook
and Serve Control
The dial turns the Slow Cooker on, and
allows the selection of one of four cook
settings ("Simmer," "Low," "High," and
the stepped-temperature setting "Auto")
plus one serve setting ("Buffet"). When the
dial is turned to one of the cook settings,
the cooking time display shows the default
time for the setting and begins its count
down. When the dial is set to the "Buffet"
serve setting, "buF" is displayed.
The "Auto" setting is a pre-programmed
stepped setting, which starts cooking on
the "High" temperature for two hours
and reduces to the "Low" temperature
for a default time of 8 hours. The time
range for the "Low" temperature step is
programmable and may be adjusted by
pressing the "-" or "+" buttons on the
control panel. After time on the "Low"
temperature step expires, the program
automatically switches the Slow Cooker to
the "Keep Warm" mode for four hours.
All settings, except for "Buffet", will
automatically switch to the "Keep Warm"
mode after the programmed cook time
has expired.
Time Adjustment Buttons
To change the default time, press the "-"
or "+" buttons located just beneath the
three-digit display. These buttons can be
used at any point in the cooking cycle to
shorten or lengthen cook time.

Using the "Buffet" Setting
Food Poisoning Hazard
Do not cook food in slow
cooker using "Buffet" setting or
if "buF" shows on the cooking
time display.
Doing so can result in food
poisoning or sickness.
This setting is ideal for entertaining, or
other times when pre-heated foods need
to be kept warm for several hours.
Do not cook, defrost or preheat foods
on the "Buffet" setting. It is to be used for
keeping cooked, pre-heated foods warm
for serving.
1. Turn cook and serve control to the
"Buffet" setting, and the 3-digit display
will show "buF." No LED indicator
lights will be on.
2. The slow cooker will operate at the
"Buffet" setting for up to six hours.
3. Once the 6-hour time limit is reached,
the display is turned off, and the unit
shuts off. Any remaining food should
be removed promptly and refrigerated
or frozen.
