Slow Cooker

This product is intended for household

use only.

This appliance is equipped with a polarized

plug. This type of plug has one blade wider

than the other. The plug will fit into an elec-

trical outlet only one way. This is a safety

feature. If you are unable to insert the plug

into the outlet, try reversing the plug. If

the plug should still fail to fit, contact an

electrician to replace the obsolete outlet.

Do not attempt to defeat the safety purpose

of the polarized plug.

IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS!

Slow Cooker Safety

When using electrical appliances, basic

safety precautions should always be

observed, including the following:

1. Read all instructions.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles

or knobs.

3. To protect against electrical shock do not

immerse cord, plug, or base in water or

other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when

used by or near children.

5. Unplug from outlet when not in use and

before cleaning. Allow to cool before

putting on or taking off parts.

6. Do not operate any appliance with

a damaged cord or plug, or after the

appliance malfunctions or is dropped

or damaged in any manner. Call our

toll-free customer service number for

information on examination, electrical

repair, mechanical repair, or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not

recommended by Hamilton Beach/

Proctor-Silex, Inc. may cause fire, electric

shock or injury.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of

table or counter, or touch hot surfaces,

including stove.

10. Do not place on or near hot gas or an

electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Extreme caution must be used when

using an appliance containing hot oil or

other hot liquids.

12. To disconnect slow cooker, turn control

knob to Off; remove plug from outlet.

13. Caution: To prevent damage or shock

hazard do not cook in base. Cook only

in removable liner.

14. Avoid sudden temperature changes,

such as adding refrigerated foods into

a heated crock.

15. Do not operate appliance in any way

other than intended use.

Consumer Safety Information

To avoid an electrical circuit overload do not

use a high wattage appliance on the same

circuit with the slow cooker.

This appliance has a short cord to reduce

the hazards of becoming entangled or

tripping over a longer cord. An extension

cord may be used if electrical rating of

extension cord is equal to or greater than

the rating of the slow cooker. Use only

an extension cord rated 10 amperes or

greater. Care must be taken to arrange

extension cord so that it will not drape over

a countertop or tabletop where it can be

tripped over or pulled on by children.

You are probably ready to develop new

recipes for use in your slow cooker. If

the recipe was originally cooked in a

saucepan on the stovetop, or slow

roasted in the oven, adapting the recipe

should be easy.

The Control Knob on the slow cooker

offers Low and High temperature

settings for cooking. The Keep Warm

setting is for holding the prepared

recipe at a perfect serving temperature.

The Keep Warm setting should only

be used after a recipe has been thor-

oughly cooked. Food should not be

reheated on the Keep Warm setting. If

food has been cooked and then refrig-

erated it must be reheated on Low or

High, then switched to Keep Warm.

Control Knob and Temperature Settings

CAUTION: The Keep Warm setting should only be used after completely cooking

the recipe according to the instructions. The food must be hot enough to prevent

bacterial growth before using the Keep Warm setting. Do not use the Keep Warm

setting to reheat any food that has been refrigerated or frozen.

If You’ve NEVER Used a Slow Cooker

If You’ve Used a Slow Cooker Before

Cooking in a slow cooker is easy but

different from conventional methods.

Take a few minutes and read “How to

Use” and “Tips for Slow Cooking.” Then

try some of the recipes in the Hamilton

Beach “One Step Prep™ Slow Cooker

Recipe Book” included with your slow

cooker.

You’ll soon be convinced that a slow

cooker is a necessity. There are also

many slow cooker recipe books avail-

able in the library or book store. If you

have any questions, call our toll-free

customer service number. We’ll be glad

to help.

Our slow cooker heats from the sides.

The Base slowly raises the temperature

of the Crock. Whether cooked on Low

or High, the final temperature of the

food is the same, about 200°F. The

only difference is the amount of time

the cooking process takes. Read the

section on “Adapting Recipes” for more

information.

HEAT SETTING LOW HIGH

4 lb. Whole Chicken 8 4

3-4 lb. Beef Roast 10 5

3-4 lb. Boneless, Smoked Ham 8 4

When removing the Cover, tilt so that

the opening faces away from you to

avoid being burned by steam.

The sides of the Base of the slow

cooker get very warm because

the heating elements are located

here. Use the handles on the Base

if necessary. Use hot mitts to remove

the Crock.

The Cover of the slow cooker does not

form a tight fit on the Crock but should

be centered on the Crock for best

results. Do not remove the Cover

unnecessarily— this results in major

heat loss. Do not cook without Cover

in place.

Stirring is not necessary when slow

cooking. However, if cooking on High,

you may want to stir occasionally.

Slow cooking retains most of the

moisture in foods. If a recipe results

in too much liquid at the end of the

cooking time, remove the Cover, turn

the Control Knob to High, and reduce

the liquid by simmering. This will take

30 to 45 minutes.

The slow cooker should be at least

half-filled for best results.

Tips for Slow Cooking

If cooking soups or stews, leave a

2-inch space between the top of the

Crock and the food so that the recipe

can come to a simmer.

Many recipes call for cooking all day.

If your morning schedule doesn’t allow

time to prepare a recipe, do it the night

before. Place all ingredients in the

Crock, cover and refrigerate overnight.

In the morning, simply place Crock

in the slow cooker and select the

temperature setting.

Meat and poultry require at least 7 to

8 hours on Low. Do not use frozen

meat in the slow cooker. Thaw any

meat or poultry before slow cooking.

Basic Cooking Chart/Hours Required

Removing Cover and Crock

• Please handle the Crock and Cover

carefully to ensure long life.

• Avoid sudden, extreme temperature

changes. For example, do not place a

hot Cover or Crock into cold water, or

onto a wet surface.

• Avoid hitting the Crock and Cover

against the faucet or other hard

surfaces.

• Do not use Crock or Cover if chipped,

cracked, or severely scratched.

• Do not use abrasive cleansers or

metal scouring pads.

Adapting Recipes

Some ingredients are not suited for

extended cooking in the slow cooker.

Pasta, seafood, milk, cream, or sour

cream should be added 2 hours before

serving. Evaporated milk or condensed

soups are perfect for the slow cooker.

Many things can affect how quickly a

recipe will cook. The water and fat

content of a food, the temperature of

the food, and the size of the food will

all affect the cooking time. Food cut

into pieces will cook faster than whole

roasts or poultry.

Most meat and vegetable combinations

require at least 7 hours on Low.

The higher the fat content of the meat,

the less liquid is needed. If cooking

meat with a high fat content, place

thick onion slices underneath, so the

meat will not sit and cook in the fat.

Some recipes call for browning the

meat before slow cooking. This is only

to remove excess fat or for color; it is

not necessary for successful cooking.

Slow cookers have very little evapora-

tion. If making your favorite soup, stew,

or sauce, reduce the liquid or water

called for in the original recipe. If too

thick, liquids can be added later.

If cooking a vegetable-type casserole,

there will need to be liquid in the

recipe to prevent scorching on the

sides of the Crock.

Cleaning Your Slow Cooker

1. Turn the Control Knob to Off. Unplug

cord from outlet.

2. Remove Crock and Cover from Base

and let cool.

3. Wash the Crock and the Cover in hot,

soapy water. Rinse and dry. The

Crock and the Cover may also be

washed in the dishwasher. If you

have a plastic Cover, please place on

top rack of dishwasher.

4. Wipe the Base with a damp cloth.

Do not use abrasive cleansers.

CAUTION: To reduce the risk of

electrical shock, do not immerse

Base in water.

Crock and Glass Cover Precautions and

Information

• The bottom of the Crock is very rough

and can damage the countertop. Use

caution.

• The Crock and the Cover can become

very hot. Use caution. Do not place

directly on any unprotected surface or

countertop.

• The Crock is microwave safe and

oven proof, but never heat the Crock

when empty. Never place the Crock

on a burner or stove top. Do not place

the Cover in a microwave oven,

conventional oven, or on the stove

top.

Optional Features on Selected Models

The Lid Latch secures the cover while moving,

transporting, or storing the slow cooker. To use

Lid Latch, place the white band into the groove

located under one of the handles. Stretch the

band to the other side of the slow cooker and

secure it in the groove under the other handle.

Once the band is attached, it can also be crossed

over the knob to further secure the lid.

The Carrying Case can be used when you need

to transport the slow cooker to another location.

First attach the Lid Latch. Secure the electric cord

of the slow cooker with a rubber band or twist tie.

Then set the slow cooker in the Carrying Case with

the cord under the slow cooker. Fit the handles of

the slow cooker through the openings in the case.

Zip the case and use caution when carrying any

hot foods. The Carrying Case can be cleaned by wiping with a damp sponge.

For bigger spills, hand wash the case in cold water and mild detergent.

(Only available for the 61⁄2quart oval slow cooker.)

DO NOT PLUG IN AND TURN ON WHEN THE SLOW COOKER IS STILL IN

THE CARRYING CASE.
