PREPARING FOR USE
Make sure your Crockpot®multi cooker is switched off and unplugged from the mains supply socket before
cleaning. Never immerse the heating base, cord or plug in water or any other liquid.
• Before using your multi cooker for the first time, wash the lid, cooking bowl, 2-way rack and rice measure in warm,
soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use harsh abrasives, chemicals or oven cleaners.
• Before cooking for the first time, wipe the interior of the cooking bowl with a light coat of cooking oil to condition the
cooking surface.
• Using a damp cloth or sponge, wipe the exterior and interior of the heating base. Use a mild detergent solution. Dry
thoroughly.
IMPORTANT NOTES: 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 surface that may be damaged by heat. We recommend placing an
insulated pad or suitably sized trivet under your multi cooker to prevent possible damage to the surface.
During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke or odour may be detected. This is normal with many heating
appliances and will not recur after a few uses.
COOKING FUNCTIONS
Your multi cooker has five cooking functions:
Brown (sear)/Sauté Use this function to seal or brown meat and poultry before cooking. This is especially useful when you
intend cooking meat using the slow cooker function. Your multi cooker has five brown (sear)/sauté temperatures.
Slow cook Slow cooking works by building up heat and maintaining an even temperature. For the best results do not
remove the glass lid before half the cooking time has elapsed. The glass lid allows you to monitor cooking progress without
interrupting the cooking time.
Roast Use your multi cooker to roast meat and poultry, potatoes and other root vegetables.
Bake The baking function of your multi cooker can be used to bake everything from fish to cakes.
Steam Effortlessly create perfect fluffy rice or steam vegetables and fish for delicious, healthy meals.
USAGE NOTES
• Never fill the cooking bowl to the rim. Always allow a 2.5 cm gap between the contents of the cooking bowl and the
rim.
• Changes to the cooking time or selected cooking temperatures can be made at any time during cooking using the timer
or temperature increase/decrease buttons.
• If additional time is needed after the cooking cycle has finished, first, press the required function button (Roast, Bake,
Steam, etc.). Next, use the increase/decrease time buttons to set the additional cooking time required (in 5 minute
increments) then press the start/stop button. Your multi cooker will continue cooking for the added time.
• The Brown (sear)/Sauté function and the Steam functions can be used without setting the timer. However, if desired,
you can use the timer feature of your multi cooker by setting a time using the timer increase/decrease buttons.
• After use, unplug your multi cooker from the supply socket. Your multi cooker does not switch off automatically.

SLOW COOKING FUNCTION
1. Place the cooking bowl into the heating base, add your ingredients into the cooking bowl and cover with the lid.
Browning (sauté or searing) meat before slow cooking adds flavour and depth. Use the Brown (sear)/Sauté features of
your multi cooker to do this. Plug in your multi cooker. To avoid under and over cooking, fill cooking bowl ½ to ¾ full
(do not fill over ¾ full to avoid spill overs).
2. Press the standby button ( ) Your multi cooker will beep and the red standby button light will come on. The display
will flash.
3. Press the slow cook function button ( ). The display will stop flashing and show LO and 6:00. These are the
default slow cooking and time settings. To change the cooking setting use the increase/decrease temperature buttons
() to select either Low, High or Warm.
Note: The Warm setting is ONLY for keeping food warm that has already been cooked. DO NOT try to cook on the
Warm setting. We do not recommend using the Warm setting for more than 4 hours.
4. Next, set the required cooking time. The default cooking time is 6 hours but you can change it in 30 minute increments
by using the increase/decrease timer buttons ( ).
5. Press the start/stop button ( ) to begin cooking. The button will light up green and your multi cooker will start to heat
up. The timer will count down in 1 minute increments.
6. When cooking has finished your multi cooker will beep three times and then automatically switch to the keep warm
mode. Your multi cooker will remain in keep warm mode until you press the stop/start button, standby button or
disconnect the unit from the mains supply.
7. You can cancel the slow cooking function at any time by pressing the start/stop button.
Due to the multi-functionality of the CSC024 appliance, its slow cooking function works in a slightly different way to regular
Crockpots. If using a recipe for a similar-sized Crockpot®, you may need to increase the cooking time for use with the
CSC024.
Note that the Crockpot®recipes found in the CSC024 Recipes Book have been designed specifically for this Crockpot®multi
cooker and need no adjustment.

TIPS
If a browner skin is required when you are roasting poultry, place the poultry with the breast side down for the first 30
minutes of cooking. Then, turn it the right way up for the rest of the cooking time.
For a superb roast, sear the meat first using the Brown (sear)/Sauté function before wrapping it in kitchen foil. This will stop
any roasting juices from escaping out of the steam vent in the lid. Carefully wipe the cooking bowl clean with kitchen paper
before placing the meat onto the rack.

green start/stop switch light will go out and the display will flash.
8. You can switch off the baking function at any time by pressing the start/stop button.
TIPS
Certain ingredients can be cooked directly in the cooking bowl. However, cakes and other recipes with a high fat/sugar
content should be cooked in suitable bakeware placed on the 2-way rack. When baking directly in the cooking bowl, line it
with baking paper to prevent ingredients sticking.
STEAMING FUNCTION
Steaming food is healthy. It doesn’t require any fat and less of the nutrients and vitamins in the food are lost. When
steaming, the food is placed on the 2-way rack so it is kept clear of the water then water is added to the cooking bowl. The
amount of water you can add to the bowl is dependant on the rack position.
1. Place the cooking bowl into the heating base, then place the rack into the cooking bowl in the high or low position as
required. With the rack in the low position, add 180ml of cold water to the cooking bowl. This will give about 5 minutes
of steaming—perfect for leafy vegetables and asparagus. With the rack in the high position, add 1.2 litres of cold water.
This will provide steam for about 45 minutes.
2. Press the standby button ( ) Your multi cooker will beep and the red standby button light will come on. The display
will flash.
3. Press the steam function button ( ). The display will stop flashing and show HI. Program the cooking time using the
increase/decrease timer buttons ( ) as required. You don’t need to set the timer
4. Press the start/stop button ( ). The button will light up green and the display will show “PreHeating”.
5. Your multi cooker will start to heat up. Once it has heated up sufficiently to produce steam, your multi cooker will beep.
6. The timer will start to count down as soon as the unit has pre heated so add the food as soon as possible. The
cooking bowl and other parts of your multi cooker will be HOT!
7. When the timer has counted down to zero and cooking has finished your multi cooker will beep three times and the
green start/stop switch light will go out and the display will flash.
8. You can switch off the steaming function at any time by pressing the start/stop button.

Boil Dry Safety Feature
If the water runs out during steaming, your multi cooker will turn itself off as a safety feature. If this happens, the display will
show OFF. If you have finished steaming and your food is cooked through you don’t need to do anything else except switch
off your multi cooker. However, if you need to carry on steaming or want to steam other items, do the following:
1. Switch off your multi cooker by pressing the standby button ( ).
2. Refill the cooking bowl with cold water as required (180ml minimum).
3. Let your multi cooker stand for 2 minutes to allow the boil dry safety feature to reset itself.
4. Switch your multi cooker on by pressing the standby button ( ).
5. Press the steam function button ( ).
6. Press the start/stop button ( ). The button will light up green and the display will show “PreHeating”. Once the unit
has pre heated, you can carry on cooking as before.
7. If the display doesn’t show “PreHeating”, switch off your multi cooker and allow it to cool down for longer before
continuing from step 4 again.
Cooking Rice with your Multi Cooker
Your multi cooker will cook brown and white rice beautifully using the Steam function. You don’t need to set the timer
because your multi cooker will automatically switch off when the rice is cooked.
Cooking time will vary depending on the amount of water and rice added to the bowl but as an example, 2 cups of washed
basmati rice take about 10 minutes, (including preheating).
• Always rinse white/basmati uncooked rice in cold water prior to cooking. This removes the starchy residue and
produces fluffy rice. Place the rice into a suitable sieve and rinse well until the water runs clear. Allow to drain for 5
minutes.
• When steaming rice, place the water into the cooking bowl first, then add the washed rice. Ensure the rice is evenly
spread around the base of the bowl before steaming.
• The preheating cycle of your multi cooker is included in the cooking time, so place your rice in the unit before
preheating.
• When steaming smaller amounts of rice, there may be some slight spitting of water from the steam vent in the lid. This
is entirely normal, however we advise that you position your multi cooker away from any electrical sockets etc.
• You may notice that a sticky residue of cooked rice is left on the bowl after steaming your rice. Most of this should be
removable using a non-metallic spoon or spatula. The remainder can be removed by soaking the bowl in hot soapy
water for a few minutes.
• Cooking rice using your multi cooker will only work when the correct ratio of rice and water is used. Therefore, it is
imperative that you measure out the rice and water using the rice measure provided. Do not try to guess.
• Always use cold water.
• Always place the lid on your multi cooker when steaming rice.
• The rice does not need to be stirred during the steaming process.
• Once cooked your multi cooker will automatically switch off. However, leaving the rice in the bowl with the lid on for 1
or 2 minutes will allow the rice to soften further.

CLEANING
Never immerse any part of the heating base or power cord and plug in water or any other liquid.
• ALWAYS unplug your multi cooker from the electrical outlet and allow it to cool before cleaning.
• Wash the lid, 2-way rack, cooking bowl and rice measure in hot, soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use
abrasive cleaning compounds or scouring pads. A cloth, sponge, or rubber spatula will usually remove residue. To
remove water spots from the surface of the cooking bowl, soak it in a solution of vinegar or lemon juice and warm
water for 30 minutes. Rinse thoroughly then dry.
• The lid and 2-way rack can also be washed in the dishwasher. Although the cooking bowl is dishwasher safe, we
recommend hand washing only.
• The outside of the heating base can be cleaned with a soft cloth dampened with warm, soapy water. Wipe dry. Do not
use abrasive cleaners.
• No other servicing should be performed.
