Th

  is appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.

No user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this product.

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 SLOW COOKER.  Th

  e extension cord 

should not be allowed to drape over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on 
by children or tripped over unintentionally.

IMPORTANT NOTE: Some countertop and table surfaces, such as Corian® and 
other surfaces, are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by certain 
appliances. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your slow cooker to 
prevent possible damage to the surface.

NOTE: During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor may be 
detected. Th

  is is normal with many heating appliances and will not recur after a few 

uses.

NOTE: Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth 
glass cook top stove, countertop, table, or other surface. Due to the nature of the 
stoneware, the rough bottom surface may scratch some surfaces if caution is not 
used. Always place protective padding under stoneware before setting on table or 
countertop.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, 
including the following:

POLARIZED PLUG

Th

  is appliance has a polarized plug, (one blade is wider than 

the other). As a safety feature to reduce the risk of electrical 
shock, this plug is intended to fi t in a polarized outlet only 
one way. If the plug does not fi t fully in the outlet, reverse the 

plug. If it still does not fi t, contact a qualifi ed electrician. Do not attempt to defeat 
this safety feature or modify the plug in any way. If the plug fi ts loosely into the 
AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
