Before Using for the First Time
1. Carefully unpack your Slow Cooker and remove all packaging materials.
2. Wash the ceramic insert and glass lid in warm, soapy water.
3. Place the slow cooker on a sturdy, clean, flat working surface.
4. Insert the lid rest into the insertion holes on the back of the base
unit. Check to make sure lid rest is securely attached.
5. It is necessary to operate the Slow Cooker one time before cooking food
in the ceramic insert. Pour 4 cups of water into the ceramic insert and
place it inside the slow cooker base. Cover with the glass lid.
6. Plug cord into a 120V AC electrical outlet.
7. Turn the control dial to HIGH. The Slow Cooker will begin to heat.
NOTE: You may notice a slight odor; this is normal and should quickly
disappear.
8. Wearing oven mitts, remove the tempered glass lid. Grasp the ceramic
insert handles carefully to lift and remove the ceramic insert from the
slow cooker base; discard water from the ceramic insert.
9. Rinse ceramic insert, dry thoroughly and replace inside the slow cooker
base for future use.
