IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS

When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed,

including the following:

1. Read all instructions before using.

2. Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.

3. To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or cooking unit in

water or other liquid. CAUTION: Never submerge the heating unit in water or

other liquid.

4. Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.

Turn control to “OFF” before unplugging from wall outlet. 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 has been damaged in any manner. Return appliance to Rival®

(see warranty) for examination, repair, or adjustment.

7. The use of accessory attachments not recommended by Rival®may cause fire,

electrical shock or injury.

8. Do not use outdoors.

9. Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter, or touch heated surfaces.

10. Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner, or in a heated oven.

11. Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or

other hot liquids. Always use hot pads when moving your heated Crock-Pot®

slow cooker.

12. Do not use appliance for other than intended use.

13. To disconnect, turn control to OFF, then remove plug from wall outlet.

14. Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as adding refrigerated foods into a

heated pot.

POLARIZED PLUG

This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). As a

safety feature, this plug will fit in a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug

does not fit fully in the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact

a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to defeat this safety feature.

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.

HOW TO USE YOUR CROCK-POT® SLOW COOKER

1. There are three temperature settings. LOW is recommended for slow ”all-day”

cooking. 1 hour on HIGH equals about 2 to 21⁄2hours on LOW. SERVE is for

keeping food warm only. DO NOT cook on SERVE setting.

2. Frozen foods such as vegetables and shrimp may be used as part of a recipe.

However, do not cook frozen meats (such as roasts or chickens) unless you first

add at least 1 cup of warm liquid. The liquid will act as a “cushion” to prevent

sudden changes in temperature. Cook recipes containing frozen meats an

additional 4 to 6 hours on LOW, or 2 hours on HIGH.

3. Always cook with the lid on.

4. Follow recommended cooking times.

5. Do not use slow cooker stoneware for storage of food.

6. Do not reheat foods in your Crock-Pot®slow cooker.

7. Do not set heated unit filled with food on a finished wood table.

8. Unplug when cooking is done and before cleaning.

9. Removable stoneware is ovenproof and microwave safe. Do not use stoneware

on gas or electric burners or under broiler.

PREPARE AHEAD CONVENIENCE!

Fill bowl and refreigerate. When ready to cook, set in electrical base and turn to

LOW or HIGH. Do not preheat electrical base.

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR CROCK-POT® SLOW COOKER

Unplug unit. CAUTION: Never submerge heating unit in water or other liquid.

REMOVABLE STONEWARE

• The removable stoneware goes safely into the dishwasher, or may be washed in

hot soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaning compounds – a cloth, a sponge or

rubber spatula will usually remove the residue. To remove water spots and other

stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner (such as Bon-Ami®Polishing Cleaner) or vinegar.

• The outside case may be cleaned with a soft cloth and warm soapy water.

Wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners.

HINTS

TRAVELING WITH YOUR CROCK-POT® SLOW COOKER

• Trim fats and wipe meats well to remove residue. (If meats contain fats, brown in a

separate skillet or broiler and drain well before adding to cooker.) Season with salt

and pepper. Place meat in cooker on top of vegetables.

• For roasts and stews, pour liquid over meat. Use no more liquid than specified in

the recipe. More juices in meats and vegetables are retained in slow cooking than in

conventional cooking.

• Most vegetables should be thinly sliced or placed near the sides or bottom of the

stoneware. Meats generally cook faster than most vegetables in a slow cooker.

• Use whole leaf herbs and spices for best and truest flavor for all-day cooking. If

ground herbs and spices are used, they should be stirred in during the last hour of

cooking.

• Because there is no direct heat at the bottom, always fill the stoneware at least half

full to conform to recommended times. Small quantities may be prepared, but

cooking time will be affected.

• A specific liquid called for in a recipe may be varied if an equal quantity is substituted.

(Such as substituting a 103⁄4ounce can of soup plus 4 ounces of water for a 14 1⁄2

ounce can of tomatoes OR 1⁄2cup beef or chicken broth for 1⁄2cup of wine, etc.)

• Beans must be softened completely before combining with sugar and/or acid foods

(NOTE: Sugar and acid have a hardening effect on beans and will prevent

softening). Dried beans, especially red kidney beans, should be boiled before adding

to a recipe. Cover the beans with 3 times their volume of unsalted water and bring

to a boil. Boil 10 minutes, reduce heat, cover and allow to simmer 11⁄2hours or until

beans are tender. Soaking in water, if desired, should be completed before boiling.

Discard water after soaking or boiling.

foods. Do not preheat Crock-Pot®slow cooker before using unless specified in the

recipe. The stoneware should be at room temperature before adding hot foods.

• To wash your stoneware right after cooking, use hot water. Do not pour in cold

water if the stoneware is hot.

The Travel-Lock™clips have been included to ensure a

secure lid when taking your meals on the road.

To use, simply clamp one clip on each end of the slow

cooker, attaching the lid and the stoneware together.

“What if the food isn’t done after 8 hours…when the recipe says

8 to 10 hours?”

This is due to voltage variations which are commonplace everywhere; altitude; or

GUIDE TO ADAPTING RECIPES

This guide is designed to help you adapt recipes to the Crock-Pot®slow cooker — your

own favorites and prized recipes collected from friends, food companies, newspapers

and magazines. Our aim is to save preparation time with fewer steps and dishes…and

to keep cooking simple. In most cases, all ingredients can go into your slow cooker in

the beginning and can cook all day. Many preparatory steps are unnecessary when

using the Crock-Pot®slow cooker. A few hints:

• Allow sufficient cooking time.

• Cook with cover on.

• Do not add as much water as some recipes indicate.

• Remember — liquids don’t “boil away” as in conventional cooking. Usually you’ll

have more liquid at the end of cooking instead of less.

• It’s “one-step” cooking: many steps in recipes may be deleted. Add ingredients to

the stoneware at one time and cook 8 to 12 hours (add any liquid last).

• Vegetables do not overcook as they do when boiled in your oven or on your range.

Therefore, everything can go into the Crock-Pot®slow cooker at one time.

even extreme humidity. The slight fluctuations in power do not have a noticeable

effect on most appliances; however, it can slightly alter the cooking times. Allow

plenty of time, and remember, it is practically impossible to overcook. You will

learn through experience whether to decrease or increase cooking times.

“Must the Crock-Pot®slow cooker be covered? Is it necessary to stir?”

Cook with the cover on. The slow cooker will not recover heat losses quickly

when cooking on LOW setting. Significant amounts of heat escape whenever the

lid is removed; therefore the cooking time must be extended. Avoid frequent

removal of the cover for checking cooking progress or stirring. Never remove

cover during the first 2 hours when baking breads or cakes.

It is not necessary to stir while cooking on LOW heat. While using HIGH heat for

short periods, occasional stirring improves the distribution of flavors.

“How about thickening the juices or making gravy?”

Add some quick-cooking tapioca to any recipe when you want to make a thick

gravy. Add the tapioca at the beginning and it will thicken as it cooks! Or you

may remove the solid foods, leaving the juices. Prepare a smooth paste of

approximately 1⁄2cup flour or cornstarch to 1⁄2cup water or 4 tablespoons melted

butter. Pour mixture into liquid in stoneware and stir well. Turn to HIGH and

when it comes to a boil (about 15 minutes) it’s ready.

“Can I cook a roast without adding water?”

Yes – if cooked on LOW. We recommend a small amount because the gravies are

especially tasty. The more fat or “marbling” the meat has, the less liquid you

need. The liquid is needed to properly soften and cook vegetables.

-7-

EXCEPTION: milk, sour cream or cream should be added during last hour of

cooking.

TIME GUIDE

Most uncooked meat and vegetable combinations will require at least 8 hours on LOW.

PASTA AND RICE

If recipe calls for cooking noodles, macaroni, etc., cook on rangetop before adding to

slow cooker. Don’t overcook — just until slightly tender. If cooked rice is called for, stir

in with other ingredients; add 1⁄4cup extra liquid per 1⁄4cup of raw rice. Use long grain

converted rice for best results in all-day cooking.

LIQUIDS

Use less in slow cooking — usually about half the recommended amount. One cup of

liquid is enough for any recipe unless it contains rice or pasta.

SAUTEING VEGETABLES

Generally not necessary! Stir in chopped or sliced vegetables with other ingredients.

ONLY EXCEPTION: eggplant should be parboiled or sauteed, due to strong flavor.

Since vegetables develop their full flavor potential with slow cooking, expect delicious

results even when you reduce quantities. Because vegetables take longer to cook than

meat, slice or chop them when possible.

HERBS AND SPICES

Leaf or whole herbs and spices are preferred, but their flavor power may increase —

use half the recommended amount. If you use ground herbs and spices, add during

last hour of cooking.

MILK

Milk, cream and sour cream tend to break down during extended cooking. When

possible add during last hour of cooking. Condensed soups may be substituted for

milk, etc., and can cook for extended times.

SOUPS

Some soup recipes call for 2 to 3 quarts of water. Add other soup ingredients to

Crock-Pot® slow cooker; then add water only to cover. If thinner soup is desired, add more

liquid at serving time. If milk-based recipes have no other liquid for initial cooking, add 1

or 2 cups water. Then during last hour of cooking, stir in milk or cream as called for.
