Troubleshooting the W-6 Slow Cooking Warning
Overview
The W-6 slow cooking error occurs when the elapsed time of the cook cycle exceeds the slow cook warning limit for that product and there was either a W-2 slow heat up warning recorded earlier in the day, or a W-7 low amps warning was triggered during the last cook cycle.
