My slowcooker cover is slam shut after cooking on the hamilton beach slow cooker

If your Hamilton Beach slow cooker model 33966C is no longer switching to the "keep warm" setting after the cook time is up, there could be a few possible causes:

1. The thermostat may be malfunctioning. The thermostat controls the temperature of the slow cooker and if it's not working correctly, it could prevent the slow cooker from switching to the "keep warm" setting.
2. The timer may be malfunctioning. The timer controls the cook time and if it's not working correctly, it could prevent the slow cooker from switching to the "keep warm" setting after the cook time is up.
3. The heating element may be malfunctioning. If the heating element is not working properly, the slow cooker may not be able to maintain the correct temperature to switch to the "keep warm" setting.
4. The lid may not be properly sealed. If the lid is not properly sealed, heat may be escaping and the slow cooker may not be able to maintain the correct temperature to switch to the "keep warm" setting.

It is recommended to try to unplug the slow cooker for a few minutes and then plug it back in to see if that solves the problem. If the problem persists, it may be best to contact Hamilton Beach customer service for further assistance or to have the slow cooker repaired or replaced.

...You can Heat Or Cook a Roast Beef in your Hamilton Beach

Oven! Remember to Spray the inside of the Crockpot with a little PAM, before you cook, and add a little Water also...Not much...just a little; as foods will always Add their own juices.

From the Hamilton Beach website:Q Should I close the clips on my Stay or Go slow cooker during cooking?A We recommend closing the clips only during transport and storage. Closing the clips during cooking will not allow for proper ventilation of steam.

The Use and care Guide for your Hamilton Beach 33966 6-Quart Slow Cooker can be downloaded here:

See page 5 for programming information.

At the end of the programmed cook time the slow cooker will automatically switch to Warm setting.

After 14 hours total run time the slow cooker will shut off.

make sure u DO NOT lock the clips while cooking, its not a pressure cooker. if you lock the lid the heat and pressure from whatever you are cooking causes an air-tight seal and the lid will shatter or the ceramic pot it self will crack...

Hamilton Beach says this is your manual. Hope it's what you need. Bon appetit!
