HOW TO USE • Place the base on a dry, sturdy, heat-resistant surface. Keep away from the edge of the surface. DO NOT place the slow cooker on the floor to operate. • Place the ingredients into the ceramic pot, and place the pot onto the base. Cover with the glass lid. If you need to precook or brown foods prior to slow cooking, this must be done in a pan. Do not try to brown or precook food in the slow cooker. • Set the control knob to OFF position before plugging the unit into the main socket.
SUITABLE FOODS FOR SLOW COOKING Most foods are suited to slow cooking methods; however there are a few guidelines that need to be followed. • Cut root vegetables into small, even pieces, as they take longer than meats to cook. They should be gently sautéed for 2-3 minutes before slow cooking. Ensure that root vegetables are always placed at the bottom of the pot and all ingredients are immersed in the cooking liquid.
TIPS FOR SLOW COOKING • • • • • • • • • • • • • The slow cooker pot must be at least half full for the best results. Slow cooking retains moisture. If you wish to reduce moisture in the cooker, remove the lid after cooking and turn the control to high (if set to low or warm) and simmer for 30 to 45 minutes. The lid is not a sealed fit. Don’t remove unnecessarily as the built up heat will escape.
CARE & CLEANING Always make sure the slow cooker is unplugged and in the OFF position before storing away or cleaning. Make sure the unit has cooled down completely before cleaning. • The ceramic pot insert is dishwasher safe or can also be cleaned with warm soapy water. To remove any foods residues from the bottom of the pot, simply soak overnight in soapy water and rinse the next day. • The exterior of the slow cooker can be wiped with a damp cloth and dried with a dry cloth.
