SPECIAL CORD SET
INSTRUCTIONS
A short power supply cord is provided to reduce the risks of becoming entangled in or tripping over a longer cord.
Longer extension cords are available and may be used if care is exercised.
If a long extension cord is used, the marked electrical rating of the extension cord should be at least as great as the electrical rating of the appliance. The longer cord should be arranged so that it will not drape over the countertop or table top where it can be pulled on by children or tripped over.
NOTICE
This appliance has a polarized plug (one prong is wider than the other). As a safety feature, this plug will fit into 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.

OPERATION

NOTE: The U.S. Department of
Agriculture (USDA) recommends that when cooking anything containing meat in a slow cooker, cook on the High temperature setting for up to 2 hours or until the meat reaches 140°F, then reduce to the Low temperature setting.
This ensures that the meat will reach food-safe temperatures in the proper amount of time.
Using the Low temperature setting without the timer is to be used only for recipes that require a constant low temperature.
When cooking on the Low setting using the timer, the
Slow Cooker will automatically start on High and then drop to Low once the food reaches 140°F.

“Cook” will illuminate to denote the unit is in Cook mode and set on the Low or High temperature setting.
For the Warm setting, the indicator light next to Warm will illuminate.

WARRANTY
Three-Year Limited
Warranty
This warranty supersedes all previous warranties on the Cuisinart ® Slow
Cooker. This warranty is available to consumers only. You are a consumer if you own a Cuisinart ® Slow Cooker that was purchased at retail for personal, family, or household use.
Except as otherwise required under applicable state law, this warranty is not available to retailers or other commercial purchasers or owners.
We warrant that your Cuisinart ® Slow
Cooker will be free of defects in material or workmanship under normal home use for three years from the date of original purchase. We suggest that you complete and return the enclosed product registration card promptly to facilitate verification of the date of original purchase. However, return of this product registration card does not eliminate the need for the consumer to maintain the original proof of purchase in order to obtain the warranty benefits. In the event that you do not have proof of purchase, the purchase date for purposes of this warranty will be the date of manufacture.
If your Slow Cooker should prove to be defective within the warranty period, we will repair it or, if we think it necessary, replace it. To obtain warranty service, please call our
Consumer Service Center toll-free at
1-800-726-0190, or write to:
Cuisinart
150 Milford Road
East Windsor, NJ 08520
To facilitate the speed and accuracy of your return, please enclose $10.00
for shipping and handling of the product. Please also be sure to include a return address, daytime phone number, description of the product defect, product serial number
5
(stamped on bottom of product base), and any other information pertinent to the product’s return.

NOTE: For added protection and secure handling of any Cuisinart ® product that is being returned, we recommend you use a traceable, insured delivery service. Cuisinart cannot be held responsible for in-transit damage or for packages that are not delivered to us. Lost and/or damaged products are not covered under warranty.
Your Cuisinart ® Slow Cooker has been manufactured to strict specifications and has been designed for use with the Cuisinart ® Slow Cooker accessories and replacement parts.
These warranties expressly exclude any defects or damages caused by accessories, replacement parts, or repair service other than those that have been authorized by Cuisinart.
These warranties do not cover any damage caused by accident, misuse, shipment, or other than ordinary household use. These warranties exclude all incidental or consequential damages. Some states do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the foregoing limitation may not apply to you.
California Residents Only
California law provides that for
In-Warranty Service, California residents have the option of returning a nonconforming product (A) to the store where it was purchased or (B) to another retail store which sells
Cuisinart products of the same type.
The retail store shall then, according to its preferences, either repair the
product, refer the consumer to an independent repair facility, replace the product, or refund the purchase price less the amount directly attributable to the consumer’s prior usage of the product. If either of the above two options does not result in appropriate relief to the consumer, consumer may then take the product to an independent repair facility if service or repair can be economically accomplished.* Cuisinart and not the consumer will be responsible for the reasonable cost of such service, repair, replacement, or refund for nonconforming products under warranty.
California residents may also, according to their preference, return nonconforming products directly to Cuisinart for repair or, if necessary, replacement by calling our
Consumer Service Center toll-free at 1-800-726-0190. Cuisinart will be responsible for the cost of the repair, replacement, and shipping and handling for such nonconforming products under warranty.
Before Returning Your
Cuisinart Product
If you are experiencing problems with your Cuisinart product, we suggest that you call our Consumer Service
Center at 1-800-726-0190 before returning the product for servicing.
Often, our Consumer Service
Representatives can help solve the problem without having the product serviced. If servicing is needed, a
Representative can confirm whether the product is under warranty and direct you to the nearest service location.
*Important: If the nonconforming product is to be serviced by someone other than Cuisinart’s Authorized
Service Center, please remind the servicer to call our Consumer
Service Center at 1-800-726-0190 to ensure that the problem is properly diagnosed, the product is serviced with the correct parts, and to ensure that the product is still under warranty.
