Before First Use:
1. Read all instructions and important safeguards.
2. Remove all packaging materials. Leave all warning labels intact.
3. Make sure appliance and accessories are received in good condition.
4. Tear up all plastic bags as they can pose a risk to children.
5. Wash all accessories in warm soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
6. Remove inner pot from slow cooker and clean with warm soapy water. Rinse and
dry thoroughly before returning to slow cooker. Wipe body and inner metal lining
clean with a damp cloth. Dry completely before using.
7. Always cook with the cover on and the ceramic pot in position. Remember that
frequent removing of the cover delays the cooking time.
8. When cooking a meat and vegetable combination, place the meat near the bottom
within the ceramic pot.
9. Unplug the slow cooker when cooking is complete. Before cleaning, allow to cool
completely.
Do not use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads.
Do not immerse the slow cooker, cord or plug in water at any time.
WARNING:
• The ceramic pot cannot withstand the shock of sudden temperature changes.
• Do not use frozen meat or poultry in a slow cooker. Thaw any meat or poultry
before slow cooking.
Setting The Temperature:
The Aroma slow cooker has a wrap-around heating element concealed in the unit.
This element provides low, even temperature that makes lengthy cooking times
possible without constant stirring or sticking.
LOW: Gently simmers food for an extended period of time without overcooking or
burning. No stirring is required. Ideal for vegetable dishes and re-heating.
HIGH: Used for preparing dried beans and will cook food in half the time required for
the low setting. Food will boil when cooked on the High setting. Occasional stirring of
stews and casseroles will improve flavor. Food should be monitored when using the
high setting.
KEEP WARM: Used for holding prepared recipes at a perfect serving temperature.
This setting should only be used after a recipe has been thoroughly cooked. If food
has been refrigerated, it must be heated on Low or High and then switched to Keep
Warm. Never cook on the Keep Warm function.
