SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY. No user-serviceable parts
inside. Power Unit never needs lubrication. Do not attempt to service this
product. Do not immerse base in water or other liquid. A short power-
supply cord is provided to reduce the hazards resulting from entanglement
or tripping over a longer cord. AN EXTENSION CORD MAY BE USED
WITH CARE; HOWEVER, THE MARKED ELECTRICAL RATING SHOULD
BE AT LEAST AS GREAT AS THE ELECTRICAL RATING OF THE CROCK-
POT ® Slow Cooker. The extension cord should not be allowed to drape
over the counter or tabletop where it can be pulled on by children or
tripped over.
NOTE: During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke and/or odor
may be detected. This is normal with many heating appliances and will not
recur after a few uses.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than
the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is
intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the
plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If
it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician.
Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into
the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some countertops, especially the Corian
other surfaces, are not designed to withstand the slow heat generated by
your Crock-Pot ® brand slow cooker. On such surfaces we recommend the
use of a heat-resistance pad or trivet. Rival
