GETTING STARTED

This appliance is intended for household use only.

• Remove all packing material, any stickers, and the plastic band around the power plug.

• Go to www.prodprotect.com/applica to register your product.

• Wash all removable parts as instructed in CARE AND CLEANING. Place the clean,

dry stoneware pot in the cooking base

• Select a location where the slow cooker is to be used. Place the unit on a stable,

heat resistant surface, free from cloth, liquids and any other ﬂammable materials.

Place the unit with ample space all the way around it, and far enough away from

the wall, to allow heat to ﬂow without damage to cabinets and walls.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION ABOUT YOUR SLOW COOKER

• The stoneware pot gets hot. When in use, always use oven mitts or potholders

when touching any outer or inner surface of the appliance

• If there is a power outage 2 hours or less, the slow cooker will resume cooking and

continue for the remaining amount of time programmed. If the power was out longer

than 2 hours the time will ﬂash 00:00 to indicate that the food should be discarded.

If you are not sure how long the slow cooker has been off,

discard the food.

• During ﬁrst few minutes of use you may notice smoke

and a slight odor. This is caused by oil that may have

been used during manufacturing of the unit and will not

impact the performance.

• Do not add cold food if the stoneware pot is hot, and

vice versa. The stoneware material is not meant to handle

sudden changes in temperature.

• Ensure that the rubber gasket is installed when using

the slow cooker. The locking mechanism will not seal

properly without the rubber gasket.

• When installing the rubber gasket make sure that the

seal is oriented downwards. (A)

LOCKING AND UNLOCKING THE LID

1. Place the stoneware pot in the cooking base. Then

place the lid, with gasket installed, on top.

2. Swing the locking wires on both handles up and

around, until they fit into the hooks on the lid. Once the

wires are in the hooks, the handles on the cooking base

will be in the open, unlocked position. (B)

3. Lock both the handles by pushing down on them.

This will lock the lid in place. Always make sure the

handles are securely in the locked position before

moving the slow cooker. (C)
