IMPORTANT SAFEGUARDS
When using electrical appliances, basic safety precautions should always be followed, including the following:
- READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING.
- Do not touch hot surfaces. Use handles or knobs.
- To protect against electrical shock, do not immerse cord, plug, or heating base in water or other liquid.
- Close supervision is necessary when any appliance is used by or near children.
- Unplug from outlet when not in use and before cleaning. Use oven mitts or allow to cool before putting on or taking off parts.
- 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 the manufacturer (see warranty) for examination, repair, or adjustment.
- Do not use outdoors.
- Do not let cord hang over edge of table or counter or touch heated surfaces.
- Do not place on or near a hot gas or electric burner or in a heated oven.
- Extreme caution must be used when moving an appliance containing hot oil or other hot liquids. Always use oven mitts when moving your heated slow cooker.
- Do not use appliance for other than intended use.
- Avoid sudden temperature changes, such as adding refrigerated foods or cold liquids into a heated pot.
- To disconnect, press/switch OFF then remove plug from wall outlet.
- The use of accessory attachments not recommended by the manufacturer may cause injuries.
- Keep 6 inches clear from the wall and 6 inches clear on all sides.
- CAUTION: To prevent damage or shock hazard, do not cook directly in the heating base. Cook only in the stoneware provided.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance is for HOUSEHOLD USE ONLY.
There are no user-serviceable parts inside. Do not attempt to service this
product. 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 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 unintentionally.
POLARIZED PLUG
This appliance has a polarized plug (one blade is wider than the other). To reduce the risk of electric shock, this plug is intended to fit into a polarized outlet only one way. If the plug does not fit fully into the outlet, reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified electrician. Do not attempt to modify the plug in any way. If the plug fits loosely into the AC outlet or if the AC outlet feels warm do not use that outlet.
IMPORTANT NOTE: Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated by certain appliances. Do not set the heated unit on a finished wood table. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under your slow cooker to prevent possible damage to the surface.
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.
NOTE: Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth glass cook top stove, countertop, table, or other surface. Due to the nature of the stoneware, the rough bottom surface may scratch some surfaces if caution is not used. Always place protective padding under stoneware before setting on table or countertop.
USING AND CLEANING
HOW TO USE YOUR DOUBLE DIPPER™ WARMER
Before you use your Double DipperTM warmer, remove all packaging components and wash the lid and stoneware with warm soapy water and dry thoroughly. Never submerge unit in water and always unplug before cleaning. The Double Dipper™ warmer is designed for heating and holding your favorite dips or sauces at the perfect serving temperature.
NOTE: The unit is not designed for use with uncooked meats. If a recipe calls for meat, it should be fully cooked before combining with other ingredients and heating it in the unit.
- Fill each stoneware compartment with desired dip and cover. The capacity of each stoneware compartment is approximately 1 to 11⁄2 cups. Always fill the stoneware 1⁄2 to 3⁄4 full. To prevent spillover, do not fill stoneware higher than 3⁄4 full. Turn unit on.
- Heat about 30 to 60 minutes or until dip is hot or completely melted. Stir dip occasionally while melting or heating.
- Remove cover for serving. Once heated, we do not recommended warming dips in the Double DipperTM warmer longer than 4 hours.
- It is recommended that both compartments of the Double DipperTM warmer are used. In the event only one chamber is used, fill the remaining chamber with water before turning on the unit.
Usage Notes
- If there is a power outage and you are unaware of how long the power was out, we suggest you discard the food in the unit.
- Unplug when heating is done and before cleaning.
- Always wear oven mitts when handling the unit.
- Removeable stoneware is ovenproof and microwave safe. Do not use removeable stoneware on gas or electric burner or under broiler. Refer to chart below.

HOW TO CLEAN YOUR DOUBLE DIPPER™ WARMER
- ALWAYS unplug your Double DipperTM warmer and allow it to cool before cleaning. CAUTION: Never submerge the unit in water or other liquid.
- After emptying, fill with warm soapy water to loosen food remains. Do not use abrasive cleaners – a cloth, sponge or rubber spatula will usually remove any residue. To remove any water spots or other stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner or vinegar.
- As with any fine ceramic, the stoneware will not withstand sudden temperature changes. Do not wash the stoneware with cold water when it is hot.
- The outside of the unit 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.
