To prevent personal injury or property damage, read and follow all instructions

and warnings.

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be

followed including the following:

• Read all instructions, including these important safeguards and the care and use

instructions in this manual.

• Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

• The use of accessory attachments not recommended by West Bend®

Housewares may cause injuries.

• Do not use glass cover if chipped, cracked or has deep scratches as weakened

glass can shatter during use.

• Do not attempt to repair this appliance yourself.

• Do not operate if the appliance is not working properly or if it has been damaged

in any manner.

• For household use only.

To prevent burns, personal injury or property damage, read and follow all

instructions and warnings.

Heat Precautions

• Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles and hot pads or oven mitts if you lift or

carry the slow cooker when it is hot.

• Do not move an appliance containing hot foods or hot liquids.

• Be extremely cautious of steam when removing cover. Lift cover slowly, directing

steam away from you.

• Set metal cooking pot and cover on hot pad, trivet or other heat protective

surface. Do not set directly on the counter, table or other surface.

• Do not heat covered and empty slow cooking pot on top of range. If preheating of

cooking pot is necessary, preheat without cover on.

• Do not allow covered pot to boil dry on top of range unit.

• Do not set glass cover on hot burner or on oven heat vent. Sudden temperature

change may cause the cover to crack or shatter.

• Do not set hot cover on cold or wet surface; let cover cool before placing in

water.

• Do not use the electrical base on the stovetop, under the broiler, in the oven, in

the refrigerator or freezer.

To prevent electrical shock, personal injury or property damage, read and

follow all instructions and warnings.

Electricity Precautions

• Do not immerse cord, plugs, or other electric parts in water or other liquids.

• Do not operate any appliance with a damaged cord or plug.

• Do not operate if the appliance is not working properly or if it has been damaged

in any manner.

• Do not use electric parts outdoors, or place them on or near a gas or electric

burner, in a heated oven, or in the refrigerator or freezer.

• Always attach cord to heating base first, then plug cord into electrical outlet.

After cooking, unplug cord from electrical outlet letting heating base cool

completely before removing cord and before cleaning.

• Your slow cooker has a short cord as a safety precaution to avoid pulling,

tripping or entanglement. Position the cord so that it does not hang over the

edge of the counter, table or other flat surface area.

• While use of an extension cord is not recommended, if you must use one,

make sure the cord has the same or higher wattage as the slow cooker (wattage

is stamped on the underside of the slow cooker base). Position the extension

cord so that it does not hang over the edge of the counter, table or other surface

area.

• Do not use an outlet or extension cord if the plug fits loosely or if the outlet or

extension cord feels hot.

• Keep the cord away from hot parts of the appliance during operation.

To prevent burns or other personal injuries to children, read and follow all

instructions and warnings.

Precautions For Use Around Children

• Always supervise children.

• Do not allow children to operate or be near the slow cooker, as the outside

surfaces are hot during use.

• Do not allow cord to hang over any edge where a child can reach it. Arrange cord

to avoid pulling, tripping or entanglement.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Using Your Slow Cooker – First Use

1. Before using, wash slow cooker pot, cover and roasting rack (if included) with

hot soapy water, rinse and dry.

2. Wipe non-stick finish of slow cooker heating base with a damp cloth and dry.

3. Wipe the non-stick finish on inside of cooking pot with a teaspoon of vegetable

cooking oil using a paper towel. This will condition the non-stick finish to prevent

sticking. NOTE: Do NOT use shortening or butter to condition the finish. Leave a

light film of oil on finish. The non-stick finish will need to be reconditioned after

each time the cooking pot is 1) cleaned in an automatic dishwasher, 2) the finish

is treated with a special cleaner, 3) the finish is cleaned with lemon juice or

vinegar is used to remove a mineral film, or 4) when sticking becomes a

problem during use. DO NOT CONDITION NON-STICK SURFACE OF SLOW

COOKER HEATING BASE BEFORE USING AS A SLOW COOKER. Non-stick

finish of heating base should only be conditioned when it is used as a grill.

• Some smoke and/or odor may occur upon heating due to the release of

manufacturing oils – this is normal.

• Some expansion/contraction sounds may occur during heating and cooling –

this is normal.

Using Your Slow Cooker – Everyday Use

1. Place heating base on dry, level, heat-resistant surface, away from any edge.

2. Place foods into slow cooker pot, cover and place cooking pot onto heating

base. If you wish to brown or precook any foods before slow cooking, place slow

cooker pot directly on range top unit over medium heat. After foods are browned

or cooked, transfer cooking pot to heating base. Note: Use only plastic, rubber,

wooden or non-metal cooking tools in metal cooking pot. Use of metal cooking

tools will scratch the non-stick surface.

3. Attach cord to base, then plug cord into a 120 volt AC electric outlet only.

4. Slow cooker base will offer heat settings Keep Warm, LO, Med and HI or be

numbered 1-5. Heat setting #1 should only be used to warm dinner rolls,

muffins, etc. Heat setting Keep Warm (#2) should only be used to keep cooked

foods warm for serving, whereas LO (#3), Med (#4) and HI (#5) are to be used

for actual cooking of foods. Set dial directly at setting or anywhere between for

complete temperature control. NOTE: DO NOT USE A HEAT SETTING BELOW

LO (#3) FOR ACTUAL COOKING OF RAW FOODS AS THE SLOW COOKER

WILL NOT GET HOT ENOUGH TO COOK FOODS.

Set heat setting and cook food for recommended time as given in recipe. As a

general guideline, most meat and vegetable combinations need 7 to 10 hours of

cooking at LO (#3), 4 to 6 hours of cooking at Med (#4) or 2 to 3 hours of

cooking at HI (#5). Meats will become most tender when cooked for the longer

time at the lower heat setting. Avoid removing cover when slow cooking as

cooking time will be increased due to loss of temperature. Remove cover only

when needed to stir occasionally or when adding ingredients.

Cleaning Your Slow Cooker

1. Allow the entire unit (base, metal cooking pot, rack, cover) to cool completely

before cleaning. Set metal cooking pot and cover on dry, heat-protective surface

for gradual cooling. NOTE: Do not run cold water over hot glass cover as it may

crack if cooled suddenly.

2. Wipe heating base and cord with a damp cloth.

3. Metal cooking pot, rack and glass cover may be washed using hot soapy water

by hand or cleaned in the dishwasher. If dishwasher cleaning, avoid contact

between pieces to prevent damage. The non-stick surface of the cooking pot

must be reconditioned with cooking oil after it is cleaned in a dishwasher to

restore the non-stick properties. DO NOT WASH PLASTIC COVER IN

DISHWASHER AS IT MAY WARP AND NOT FIT COOKING POT PROPERLY.

Use a non-abrasive cleanser or baking soda paste to remove stains. Do not use

metal scouring pads or cleansers as damage can occur. Wipe with distilled

vinegar to remove water spots or mineral deposits. Rewash with hot soapy

water, rinse and dry.

Condition Non-Stick Finish: Just before using base as a grill, condition the non-

stick finish with a teaspoon of cooking oil. Wipe oil evenly over finish, leaving a light

film of oil. DO NOT use shortening or butter to condition finish.

Clean After Grilling: Always unplug cord from electrical outlet and allow base to

cool completely before cleaning. With a spoon or baster, remove any fat or grease

that has collected on the grill surface. Wipe oil residue from base with paper

toweling. Wipe non-stick finish with a damp soapy dishcloth or nylon-scouring pad

recommended for non-stick finishes. Clean finish thoroughly, wiping base several

times with a clean damp cloth to remove soap residue.

If a tacky oil film forms on the non-stick finish of base, wipe with a dry cloth to

remove. If this residue is not removed, it will adhere to the finish when reheated and

become impossible to remove.

Care and Use For Insulated Carrying Bag (if included)

Tips For Safe Use:

• Food must be prepared in slow cooker to retain safe serving temperature during

transportation. To help retain this temperature, cover cooking pot with plastic lid

and slow cooker cover, place slow cooker in carrying bag and zip closed as

quickly as possible.

• Food must always be properly prepared and thoroughly cooked before placing

slow cooker in insulated carrying bag.

• Food should not be kept in insulated carrying bag for more than 2 hours to avoid

food spoilage. This time will be reduced if bag is kept in a cold area.

• Always use plastic lid when transporting slow cooker in carrying bag.

• DO NOT USE PLASTIC LID FOR COOKING. Plastic lid is designed for use

during transporting and/or storage in refrigerator or freezer ONLY.

• Plastic lid does not completely seal cooking pot. Do not overfill cooking pot as

spillage may occur.

• When removing plastic lid from heated foods, use care as condensation may

form on underside of lid.

• Insulated carrying bag must be completely zipped and carried level to help

reduce leaking or spilling.

• Do not put carrying bag or plastic transport cover in any oven.

• Do not plug appliance into an electrical outlet while the slow cooker is still in the

carrying bag or has the plastic transport cover on.

To Use:

1. Unzip insulated carrying bag and open cover. Position interior straps one to

the front and one to the back.

2. Remove cord from slow cooker heating base, fold and place in carrying bag

behind back strap. Don’t forget to include the cord.

3. Remove cooking pot, set on heat-resistant surface. Remove slow cooker

glass cover and carefully place plastic lid onto cooking pot.

4. Place heating base in carrying bag, covered cooking pot on base and slow

cooker glass cover on top of plastic lid.

5. While securing slow cooker cover, carefully lift back strap over covered

slow cooker, being sure to go over top knob of cover if featured on your

slow cooker. Bring front strap up, insert clip in notch of back strap, securing

slow cooker in carrying bag.

6. Close cover and zip bag closed. Bring exterior handles around bag and

secure with Velcro strap.

7. Upon arrival at destination, remove slow cooker from insulated carrying

bag. Remove plastic lid and replace with the glass slow cooker cover.

Plug into electrical outlet and heat at Keep Warm (#2) for serving.

To Clean:

1. Wash plastic lid in hot soapy water, rinse and dry. Lid can also be cleaned

in dishwasher, top rack only.

2. Wash insulated carrying bag with mild soap and a damp cloth. Wipe clean

and dry completely before storing.

Tips For Adapting Recipes To Slow Cooking

Many of your favorite oven and range top recipes can be adapted to slow cooking

with a few minor changes. Here are some important points to remember.

Amount of Liquid: Because little moisture evaporates during slow cooking, reduce

amount of liquid in your recipe by one-half (1 cup of liquid is enough for most

recipes). For soup recipes, add all ingredients except water or broth to pot; add only

enough liquid to cover ingredients.

Amount of Seasoning: Reduce amount of seasoning in proportion with reduced

amount of liquid. Use whole or leaf herbs and spices rather than crushed or

ground forms.

Slow Cooking Meat: Less tender, less expensive cuts of meat are better suited to

slow cooking than expensive cuts of meat. Remove excess fat before slow cooking if

desired. Meat can be browned in the cooker pot on top of the range before slow

cooking.

Slow Cooking Vegetables: Add partially frozen vegetables, Chinese vegetables

and fresh mushrooms during the last hour of cooking. Strong-flavored vegetables

such as spinach, eggplant, okra and collard greens should be precooked before

adding to cooker. The amount of onion normally used in your recipe should be

reduced because its flavor gets stronger during cooking. In most cases, fresh

vegetables take longer to cook than meats because liquid simmers rather than boils.

Slow Cooking Raw Meats and Vegetables: Most raw meat and vegetable

combinations need at least 4 to 6 hours of cooking at Med (#4) or 7 to 10 hours at

LO (#3).

Slow Cooking Fish and Seafood: Fresh or thawed seafood and fish fall apart

during long hours of cooking. Add these ingredients an hour before serving and cook

at HI (#5).

Slow Cooking Milk, Sweet or Sour Cream and Cheese: Because milk, sour or

sweet cream and cheese break down during long hours of cooking, add these

ingredients just before serving or substitute undiluted condensed canned soups or

evaporated milk. Processed cheese tends to give better results than aged cheese.

Rice and Pasta: Rice and pasta may either be cooked separately, or added

uncooked during last hour of cooking time. If added uncooked, make sure there is at

least 1 to 1½ cups of liquid in pot and heat is set at LO (#3) or higher.

Dumplings: Dumplings may be cooked in broth or gravy at HI (#5). Drop by

spoonfuls on simmering broth or gravy. Cook, covered, for 30 minutes.

Thickening Juices for Gravies and Sauces: To thicken juices for gravies and

sauces, add 2 to 3 tablespoons of quick cooking tapioca at start, or thicken after

cooking by adding a smooth paste made of 2 to 4 tablespoons cornstarch or flour

and ¼ cup cold water. Bring to a boil at HI (#5). Solid foods may be removed first.

Don’t Remove Cover During Cooking: To retain heat, moisture and food flavor,

don’t remove cover during cooking unless necessary for adding additional

ingredients.

Using Cooking Tools on Non-Stick Finish: The following types of cooking tools

may be used on the non-stick finish: plastic, rubber and wooden. Do not use sharp

edged metal cooking tools (forks, knives, mashers) as these could scratch the non-

stick finish.

Tips For Adapting Recipes To Slow Cooking cont.

Using Cooking Pot on Top of Range: The slow cooker pot (without heating base)

can be used for range top cooking. Place pot on large range unit. Use medium to low

heat. The use of low to moderate heat will prevent foods from overcooking, reduce

spattering and help retain natural juices. Do not use high heat except for bringing

liquids to a boil. If cooking on a gas range, do not let flame extend up side of pot.

ALWAYS USE OVEN MITTS WHEN USING POT AND COVER ON RANGE UNIT.

When cooking meats, preheat empty cooking pot over medium to medium-low heat

for 2 to 3 minutes or until a drop of water sizzles in pot. To prevent sticking of lean

meats, you may wish to add a small amount of cooking oil. Add meat and brown as

desired. Cover pot and reduce heat to low for cooking on range top OR transfer

cooking pot to heating base and cook at desired setting. The shortest cooking time

will be at HI (#5).

Using Cooking Pot in Oven: The slow cooker pot (without heating base) can

be used in a conventional or convection oven up to preheated temperatures of

350°F/177°C. If cooking pot is to be covered, use only glass cover in oven; do

not use a plastic cover, as damage will occur. Cooking pot may be covered with

aluminum foil for oven use. ALWAYS USE OVEN MITTS WHEN USING POT

IN OVEN.

DO NOT USE METAL COOKING POT IN A MICROWAVE OVEN, OVER A

CAMPFIRE OR UNDER AN OVEN BROILER UNIT TO PREVENT DAMAGE TO

THE COOKING POT OR OVEN.

Using Glass Casserole Cover as a Casserole Dish: (if included, Not Plastic

Cover) Your slow cooker may have a glass casserole style cover that when inverted

can be used as a 1½-quart casserole dish. The casserole cover may be used in a

conventional or convection oven up to preheated temperatures of 400°F/205°C, or

in a microwave oven. Do not use cover under a broiler or browning unit or in a

toaster oven. NOTE: to prevent damage to cover, property damage, or personal

injury, do not use glass cover on range top unit as it could shatter due to sudden

temperature change.

Using Roasting Rack (if included): Your slow cooker may include a small wire

roasting rack for use in roasting meat and poultry. To use rack, simply place into

bottom of slow cooker pot and place roast, chicken or ham onto rack. Add a small

amount of liquid to pot before cooking. If you wish, the meat can be browned in

cooking pot on top of range before roasting. The rack can also be used for steaming

fresh vegetables such as broccoli and corn-on-the-cob. Add 1 cup of water to

cooking pot to steam vegetables. Cook on top of range over medium to medium-low

heat or on heating base at HI (#5) to desired doneness.

Using Electric Base With Other Utensils: The slow cooker base may be used as a

warming and cooking unit for heatproof utensils other than the slow cooker pot, such

as a heatproof casserole dish. DO NOT USE PLASTIC COOKING OR SERVING

DISHES ON THE BASE. To ensure safe use make certain dish rests securely on

base before using it to cook or warm.

Bread, Cakes & Desserts: For oval shaped slow cooker use a 8 x 4-inch loaf pan;

for oblong shaped slow cooker use a 9 x 5-inch loaf pan. To prevent condensation

from dripping onto food while baking, place double layer of paper toweling and single

layer of aluminum foil across top of slow cooker pot. Cover and bake according to

recipe.
