HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER WITHOUT THE ALEXA APP
Your Crock-Pot® 6 Quart Connected Slow Cooker does not need to be connected to a Wi-Fi® network to use. It can be used when not connected to your Wi-Fi® network, by using the Power button on the unit only. However, you will not be able to monitor or adjust the cook settings on the Alexa App or Echo device, if your slow cooker is not connected to a Wi-Fi® network. The following steps explain how to use your slow cooker with only the Power Button on the front of the unit.
- Place the stoneware into the heating base, add your ingredients to the stoneware, and cover with the lid.
- Plug in your Crock-Pot® slow cooker and select the temperature setting using the Power button on the base. Toggle the button to change the setting from LOW, HIGH, to WARM. LOW is recommended for slow “all-day” cooking. One hour on HIGH is equivalent to approximately 1½ to 2 hours on LOW. Refer to your specific recipe for more precise cook times. WARM is ONLY for keeping already cooked food at the perfect serving temperature until you are ready to eat. DO NOT cook on the WARM setting. NOTE: We do not recommend using the WARM setting for more than 4 hours.
- When cooking has been activated using the Power button on the base, the slow cooker will continue cooking on the selected temperature setting until you press the Power button again to select a different setting, or until you unplug the unit. Your slow cooker will automatically switch to WARM after 4 hours if set on HIGH, or after 8 hours if set on LOW. The slow cooker will shut off after 4 hours on WARM setting. However, you can activate cooking with the Power button and then adjust the temperature or cook time using the Alexa App or Echo device, if your slow cooker is connected to a Wi-Fi® network. In this case, the slow cooker will automatically switch to WARM when the cooking time, selected or spoken on the Alexa App or Echo device, has been completed.
USAGE NOTES
- If there is a power outage or the slow cooker is unplugged, all settings will be cleared and must be reset. As a result, the food may be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the power was out, we suggest you discard the food inside.
- Once power is restored, a slow cooker will automatically reconnect to the Wi-Fi® router.
- For recipes that require a range of times, select the time closest to the setting on your slow cooker. For example, to cook 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 ½ to ¾ full and conform to recommended cook times.
- Do not overfill stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill stoneware higher than ¾ full.
- Always cook with the lid on for the recommended time. Do not remove the lid during the first two hours of cooking to allow the heat to build up efficiently.
- Always wear oven mitts when handling the lid or stoneware.
- 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 a broiler. Refer to the chart below.
HOW TO CLEAN YOUR SLOW COOKER
-
ALWAYS turn your slow cooker off, unplug it from the electrical outlet, and allow it to cool before cleaning.
-
The lid and stoneware can be washed in the dishwasher or with hot, soapy water. 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 lid will not withstand sudden temperature changes. Do not wash the stoneware or lid with cold water when they are hot.
-
The outside of the heating base may be cleaned with a soft cloth and warm, soapy water. Wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners.
CAUTION
Never immerse the heating base in water or other liquid. -
No other servicing should be performed.
-
This appliance has no user serviceable parts. Any servicing beyond that described in the Cleaning Section should be performed by an Authorized Service Representative only. See warranty available online.
TROUBLESHOOTING
For more Troubleshooting information and help, please visit www.crock- pot.com
WI-FI® CONNECTIVITY
Each Connected Crock-Pot® has a Wi-Fi® indicator on the control panel to
display connectivity status.
HINTS AND TIPS
PASTA AND RICE
- For best rice results, use long-grain converted rice or a bowl of specialty rice as the recipe suggests. If the rice is not cooked completely after the suggested time, add an extra 1 to 11⁄2 cups of liquid per cup of cooked rice and continue cooking for 20 to 30 minutes.
- For best pasta results, first, partially cook the pasta in a pot of boiling water until just tender. Add the pasta to the Crock-Pot® slow cooker during the last 30 minutes of cook time.
BEANS
- Beans must be softened completely before combining with sugar and/or acidic foods. 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.
- Fully cooked canned beans may be used as a substitute for dried beans.
VEGETABLES
- Many vegetables benefit from slow cooking and are able to develop their full flavor. They tend not to overcook in your slow cooker as they might in your oven or on your stovetop.
- When cooking recipes with rooted vegetables and meat, place vegetables in slow cooker before meat. Vegetables usually cook slower than meat in the slow cooker.
- Place rooted vegetables near the sides or bottom of the stoneware to facilitate cooking.
- Fresh herbs add flavor and color, but should be added at the end of the cooking cycle as the flavor will dissipate over long cook times.
- Ground and/or dried herbs and spices work well in slow cooking and may be added at the beginning.
- The flavor power of all herbs and spices can vary greatly depending on their particular strength and shelf life. Use herbs sparingly, taste at the end of the cook cycle, and adjust seasonings just before serving.
MILK
- Milk, cream, and sour cream break down during extended cooking. When possible, add during the last 15 to 30 minutes of cooking.
- Condensed soups may be substituted for milk and can cook for extended times.
SOUPS
- Some soup recipes call for large amounts of water. Add other soup ingredients to the slow cooker first then add water only to cover. If thinner soup is desired, add more liquid at serving time.
MEATS
- Trim the fat, rinse well, and pat meat dry with paper towels.
- Browning meat in a separate skillet or broiler allows fat to be drained off before slow cooking and also adds a greater depth of flavor.
- Meat should be positioned so that it rests in the stoneware without touching the lid.
- For smaller or larger cuts of meat, alter the number of vegetables or potatoes so that the stoneware is always 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 full.
- The size of the meat and the recommended cook times are just estimates and can vary depending on the specific cut, type, and bone structure. Lean meats such as chicken or pork tenderloin tend to cook faster than meats with more connective tissue and fat such as beef chuck or pork shoulder. Cooking meat on the bone versus boneless will increase the required cook times.
- Cut meat into smaller pieces when cooking with precooked foods such as beans or fruit, or light vegetables such as mushrooms, diced onion, eggplant, or finely minced vegetables. This enables all food to cook at the same rate.
- When cooking frozen meats, at least 1 cup of warm liquid must first be added. The liquid will act as a “cushion” to prevent sudden temperature changes. An additional 4 hours on LOW or 2 hours on HIGH is typically required. For larger cuts of frozen meat, it may take much longer to defrost and tenderize.
FISH
- Fish cooks quickly and should be added at the end of the cooking cycle during last fifteen minutes to hour of cooking.
LIQUID
- For best results and to prevent food from drying or burning, always ensure an adequate amount of liquid is used in the recipe.
- Ensure the stoneware is always filled a minimum of 1⁄2 full and a maximum of 3⁄4 full, and conform to recommended cook times.
