This appliance is intended for household use only.
• Remove all packing material, any stickers, packaged chalk, 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.
• Before first use and after cleaning, prime the chalkboard surface. To prime, use
the side of the chalk stick and liberally cover the chalkboard surface. Lightly rub
with a dry rag or paper towel, and then the surface is ready for use. If surfaces are
not properly primed, drawings may be hard to remove.
• Do any writing or drawing on your chalkboard slow cooker before cooking. Only
use traditional chalk sticks to draw on your slow cooker. Other chalk-like items, such
as chalk pens, could be difficult to remove and drawings may become permanent.

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)
