Vicki, someone asked this question on a cooking program, and the response was that it is not--generally speaking--a good idea to have ingredients sitting in a slow-cooker for several hours before the timer kicks in. It depends on what you are cooking, of course, but if meat is one of the ingredients, you wouldn't want it sitting at room temperature; it would allow bacteria to grow.
