Slow Cook Guide
Guideline Tips
The slow cook program uses a complex series of
temperature cycling to obtain the best results. For this
reason, it is recommended that the slow cook program
be allowed to run without cancelling or restarting.
Restarting the slow cook feature while it is in progress
may result in overcooked meat.
For juicy and tender meat, choose cuts of meat such
as chuck roast or a boneless blade roast. Leaner cuts
of meat, such as top round, are drier and may need
additional liquid.
Use only glass and ceramic dishes. Metal pots and pans
tend to transfer the heat into the foods too quickly.
Match the quantity of food to the size pan. Fill the pan
about 3/4 full for best results. Too large a pot allows the
steam to escape, causing foods to dry out.
Always cover the pot with a lid or aluminum foil.
A wide range of recipes may be used in the slow cook
feature. For best results some adjustments may need to
be made. For smaller sized recipes, begin checking
at minimum time. For large recipes or when doubling
recipes, foods may be cooked for longer periods of time.
When the slow cook feature completes, the oven will
automatically switch to “warm” mode. If additional slow
cook time is desired, this warm mode may be used to
obtain the extra time.
FOOD POISON HAZARD: Bacteria may grow in food at temperatures below 140°F.
Always start with hot food. Do not use warm settings to heat cold food.
Do not warm food for more than 2 hours.
Failure to follow these instructions may result in foodborne illness.
WARNING
How to Set the Oven For Warming
The WARM feature keeps cooked foods hot.
This feature is not designed to reheat cold food.
To use the WARM feature, touch the WARM
pad and then the START pad.
NOTE: Plastic containers, lids or plastic wrap will
melt if placed in the oven. Melted plastic may
not be removable and is not covered under your
warranty.
