Operating
1. Clean thoroughly before use.
2. Place the cooker housing on a stable, flat, heat resistant surface and
away from surfaces that may be damaged by steam.
3. After making reference to the food safety and general cooking advice,
place the ingredients to be cooked into the removable bowl. Heat liquids
such as water and stock before adding to the bowl and do not fill to the
brim.
4. Cover the bowl with the glass lid and place into the cooker housing.
5. Fully unwind the cable, plug in and switch on. For your safety do not
allow the cable to dangle over the edge of units.
6. Using the function switch, select the cooking function of choice (the
indicator light will illuminate) and if cooking times allow, select the HIGH
setting in preference to the low setting.
Cooking food on HIGH will require less time than cooking at LOW.
The slow cooker can operate on LOW all day and night if required.
7. When the cooking is complete, select the WARM function to keep the food
warm (maximum 4 hours) until it is ready to serve.
8. When ready to serve, turn the slow cooker off using the function switch.
The indicator light will extinguish.
Notes:
Before using for the first time, wash loose parts (removable bowl and lid)
in hot water with a little washing up liquid. Rinse and dry thoroughly. Not
suitable for the dishwasher..
General Cooking Advice
1. When adding liquid or stock to the slow cooker is recommended that
hot liquid is added to reduce the cooking time and to ensure that the
slow cooker reaches the higher cooking temperatures more quickly.
2. Avoid lifting the glass lid during the cooking process as this breaks the
seal formed around the lid and adds time to the cooking process.
3. Vegetables such as carrots, potatoes and turnips require longer
cooking than many types of meat and should be cut into the smallest
sizes practical. Place in the bottom or the sides of the bowl and
cover with liquid.
