PREPARING FOR USE
Before you use your Crockpot® slow cooker, remove all packaging and wash the lid and stoneware with warm soapy water
and 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 heat sensitive surface. We recommend placing a hot pad or trivet under
your slow cooker to prevent possible damage to the surface.
Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth glass cook top stove, countertop, table, or other
surface. Due to the nature of the stoneware, the rough bottom surface may scratch some surfaces if caution is not used.
Always place protective padding under stoneware before placing it on a table or countertop.
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.
ASSEMBLY
1. Place the stoneware into the heating base.
2. Attach the lid by inserting the hinge mechanism into the hinge slot at the rear of the heating base.
HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER
1. Place the stoneware into the heating base, add your ingredients into the stoneware and cover with the lid. Plug in your
slow cooker.
2. Select the temperature setting using the temperature select button G. The high temperature light ( ) or low
temperature light ( ) will come on.
NOTE: The KEEP WARM setting ( ) is ONLY for keeping food that has already been cooked warm. DO NOT cook on
the WARM setting. We do not recommend using the WARM setting for more than 4 hours.
3. Press the timer up/down buttons H to select a cooking time. The time can be set in increments of 30 minutes up to
20 hours. Select the time based on the length of time indicated in the recipe. The time will begin to count down in one
minute increments.
4. When cooking has finished, your slow cooker will automatically switch to the KEEP WARM setting and the keep warm
light ( ) will come on.
5. To stop cooking, press the standby button I. Follow steps 2 and 3 above to return to cooking. To turn your slow
cooker OFF, unplug it from the supply socket.
USAGE NOTES
• If the mains power has been interrupted (power cut), the display and lights will flash when the power is restored. All the
slow cooker settings will have been lost. As a result, the food may be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the
power was off, we suggest you discard the food inside.
• To avoid over or under-cooking, always fill the stoneware ½ to ¾ full and conform to the recommended cooking times.
• Do not overfill the stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill the stoneware higher than ¾ full.
• If desired, you can manually switch to the warm setting when your recipe has finished cooking.
• Always cook with the lid on for the recommended time. Do not remove the lid during the first two hours of cooking to
allow the heat to build up efficiently.
• Always wear oven gloves when handling the lid. Beware of escaping steam when opening the lid.
• Unplug when cooking has finished and before cleaning.
• The removable stoneware is ovenproof. Do not use removable stoneware on a gas burner, electric hob or under grill.
Refer to chart below.
* Refer to your Microwave manual for operation with stoneware.
GUIDE TO ADAPTING RECIPES
This guide is designed to help you adapt your own and other recipes for your slow cooker. Many of the normal preparatory
steps are unnecessary when using your slow cooker. In most cases all ingredients can go into your slow cooker at once
and cook all day. General:
• Allow sufficient cooking time.
• Always cook with the lid on.
• For best results and to prevent food from drying or burning, always ensure an adequate amount of liquid is used in the
recipe.
RECIPE TIME COOK ON LOW ( )COOK ON HIGH ( )
15 - 30 minutes 4 - 6 hours 1½ - 2 hours
30 - 45 minutes 6 - 10 hours 3 - 4 hours
50 minutes - 3 hours 8 - 10 hours 4 - 6 hours
PASTA AND RICE:
• For best results, use long grain rice unless the recipe states otherwise. If the rice is not cooked completely after the
suggested time, add an extra 1 to 1½ cups of liquid per cup of cooked rice and continue cooking for 20 to 30 minutes.
• For best pasta results, add the pasta to the slow cooker during the last 30 to 60 minutes of cook time.
BEANS:
• Dried beans, especially red kidney beans, should be boiled before adding to a recipe.
• Fully cooked canned beans may be used as a substitute for dried beans.
VEGETABLES:
• Many vegetables benefit from slow cooking and are able to develop their full flavour. They tend not to overcook in your
slow cooker as they might in your oven or on your hob.
• When cooking recipes with vegetables and meat, place vegetables into the stoneware before meat. Vegetables usually
cook more slowly than meat in the slow cooker and benefit from being partially immersed in the cooking liquid.
• Place vegetables near the sides or bottom of the stoneware to help cooking.
MILK:
• Milk, cream, and sour cream break down during extended cooking. When possible, add during the last 15 to 30
minutes of cooking.
• Condensed soups may be substituted for milk and can cook for extended times.
SOUPS:
• Some recipes call for large amounts of water/stock. Add the soup ingredients to the stoneware first then add water/
stock only to cover. If a thinner soup is desired, add more liquid when serving.
MEATS:
• Trim fat, rinse well, and pat meat dry with paper towels.
• Browning meat beforehand allows fat to be drained off before slow cooking and also adds greater depth of flavour.
• Meat should be positioned so that it rests in the stoneware without touching the lid.
• For smaller or larger cuts of meat, alter the amount of vegetables or potatoes so that the stoneware is always ½ to ¾
full.
• The size of the meat and the recommended cook times are just estimates and can vary depending upon the specific
cut, type, and bone structure. Lean meats such as chicken or pork tenderloin tend to cook faster than meats with more

connective tissue and fat such as brisket or pork shoulder. Cooking meat on the bone versus boneless will increase
required cook times.
• Cut meat into smaller pieces when cooking with precooked foods such as beans, or light vegetables such as
mushrooms, diced onion, aubergine, or finely minced vegetables. This enables all food to cook at the same rate.
FISH:
• Fish cooks quickly and should be added at the end of the cooking cycle during the last fifteen minutes to one hour of
cooking.
LIQUID:
• It might appear that slow cooker recipes only have a small quantity of liquid in them but the slow cooking process
differs from other cooking methods in that the added liquid in the recipe will almost double during the cooking time. If
you are adapting a recipe for your slow cooker from a conventional recipe, please reduce the amount of liquid before
cooking.
