The answer is....(drumroll, please), 1= Low, 2= High. I have been looking for this answer for awhile because I too lost the instruction book that came with the slow cooker. I did an experiment. Stew and a meat thermometer, and the results were obvious!
Now as to how long the auto-shift stays on high before it shifts to low, I am not sure.

Yes, MB is correct - I went to the proctor silex website and found the user manual. Here's a link to it: http://useandcares.hamiltonbeach.com/files/840036400.pdf

The user manual says that Auto Shift starts cooking on high and finishes on low and that cooking times will be approximately halfway in between high and low cooking times. It doesn't say after how much time it switches. Some of the recipes in the manual give times to cook with Auto Shift.

Cambria countertops are natural quartz and like any natural stone, it can be damaged by sudden and/or rapid change of temperature. Direct heat transfers from pots & pans, electric frying pans, griddles, crock-pots, roaster ovens, heat lamps can cause damage. The use of a hot pad or trivet is always recommended to prevent heating of the product.
Yes, Cambria quartz countertops are heat resistant to a certain extent, but it is still recommended to use trivets or hot pads to protect them from excessive heat exposure. Placing hot pans directly on the surface can potentially damage the quartz material over time.

The instructions that came with the crock watcher under "How to use slow cooker" says "Select LOW, HIGH, or AUTO SHIFT. The control settings indicated on the crock watcher are 1, 2, and Auto Shift, therefore "1" must be "low" and "2" must be "high."
