Using Auto-Program - Bella 14124 Manual De Instrucciones

NOTE: When cooking a meat and vegetable combination, place the vegetables in the bottom of the
aluminum pot first. Then add the browned meat and other ingredients.
NOTE: When cooking on HIGH, check cooking progress, as some recipes may come to boil and may
require additional water.
8. Remember that frequent lifting of the lid during cooking delays the slow cooking time.

Using Auto-Program

Most recipes can be prepared effortlessly using the preset times. However, keep in mind that factors such
as size/quantity of the meat, specific cut, meat on the bone versus boneless, may cause actual cook times to
vary. Leaner meats such as boneless-skinless chicken or pork tenderloin, or meat cut into smaller chunks, may
require less cook time than tougher meats such as beef chuck or pork shoulder. Your Programmable Slow
Cooker allows you the flexibility to easily adjust times as you cook.

7. Some recipe ingredients are cooked at different times, or reheating to serve foods does not require as
much cook time, the target cook time may be adjusted at any time while the Slow Cooker is cooking. For
example: to change the CHICKEN cook time to 3-1/2 hours, first press the TIME button. Press the DOWN
arrow until the target cook time (03:30) is displayed. (See Figure 6C.)
8. After 5 seconds, the Slow Cooker will begin operation or press POWER button to begin cooking immediately.

time counts down to 00:00 the Slow Cooker will automatically turn OFF and the display will turn blank.
