Do NOT attempt to repair or adjust any electrical or mechanical functions on this unit. If you need to exchange the unit, please return it in its original carton, with a sales receipt, to the store where you purchased it. If you are returning the unit more than 30 days after the date of purchase, please see the enclosed Warranty. [. . . ] Do not use abrasive cleaning compounds or scouring pads. A cloth, sponge, or rubber spatula will usually remove residue. To remove water spots and other stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner or vinegar. · As with any fine ceramic, the stoneware and lids will not withstand sudden temperature changes. Do not wash the stoneware or lids with cold water when they are hot. · The outside of the heating base may be cleaned with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. CAUTION: Never immerse the heating base in water or other liquid. · No other servicing should be performed. · If you suspect that the power has gone out, the food inside may be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the power was out, we suggest you discard the food inside. · For recipes that require a range of times, select the mid-range time. For example, for a recipe calling for a cooking time of 7 to 9 hours on LOW, cook for 8 hours. · To avoid over or under-cooking, always fill the stoneware 1/2 to 3/4 full and conform to recommended cook times. To prevent spillover, do not fill stoneware higher than 3/4 full. · Always cook with the lids on for the recommended time. Do not remove the lids during the first two hours of cooking to allow the heat to build up efficiently. · Always wear oven mitts when handling the lids or stoneware, even if the one being moved is not powered on. · Unplug when cooking is done and before cleaning. · Removable stoneware is ovenproof and microwave safe. Do not use removable stoneware on gas or electric burner or under broiler. -6- -7- SCRBC750-BS. qxd:SCRBC500-BS, SCRBC500-W, SCRBC500-B, SCRBC600-PS 2/27/09 10:58 AM Page 8 HINTS AND TIPS PASTA AND RICE · For best rice results, use long grain converted rice or a specialty rice as the recipe suggests. If the rice is not cooked completely after the suggested time, add an extra 1 to 1½ cups of liquid per cup of cooked rice and continue cooking for 20 to 30 minutes. · When cooking recipes with rooted vegetables and meat, place vegetables in cooker & server before meat. Rooted vegetables usually cook slower than meat in the cooker & server. [. . . ] Brown sausage and meatballs in a skillet on stovetop (optional). Add all ingredients to cooker & server stoneware except pasta and grated cheese. Cover and cook on Low for 7 - 8 hours or on High for 4 hours. Serve with cooked pasta and grated cheese. 1. [. . . ]
