seafood, milk and cream should be added towards the end of the
cooking time.
• Food cut into small pieces will cook quicker. A degree of ‘trial and
error’ will be required to fully optimise the potential of your Slow
Cooker.
• All food should be covered with a liquid, gravy or sauce. In a
separate pan or jug, prepare your liquid, gravy or sauce and
completely cover the food in the Cooking Pot (3).
• When cooking joints of meat, ham, poultry etc, the size and shape
of the joint is important. Try to keep the joint in the lower 2/3 of
the pot. If necessary, cut into two pieces. Joint weight should be
kept within the maximum limit of 1kg (3.5L) or 1.5kg (6.5L).
• For ham and brisket fill with hot water to cover 2/3 of the depth of
the joint. For beef, pork or poultry cover to 1/3 depth.
After food is cooked, switch off and leave covered with the lid.
There will be enough heat in the ceramic pot to keep warm for 30
minutes. If you require longer to keep warm, switch to the low
setting.
• All food should be covered with a liquid, gravy or sauce. In a
separate pan or jug, prepare your liquid, gravy or sauce and
completely cover the food in the ceramic pot.
• Pre-brown meat and onions in a pan to seal in the juices, this also
reduces the fat content if separated before adding to the ceramic
pot. This is not necessary if the time is limited, but improves the
flavour.
Caring for the Glass Lid and
Cooking Pot
• Please handle the Glass Lid (2) and Cooking Pot (3) carefully to
ensure long life.
• Avoid sudden, extreme temperature changes to the Glass Lid. For
example, do not place a hot lid into cold water or on to a wet
surface.
• Avoid dropping or hitting the Glass Lid against hard surfaces.
• Do not use the Glass Lid if chipped, cracked or severely
scratched.
• Do not use abrasive cleansers or metal scouring pads on the
Glass Lid or Cooking Pot.
• Never heat the Cooking Pot when empty.
• Never place the Glass Lid directly on a burner or hob.
• Never use the Glass Lid or Cooking Pot under a grill.
• Never place the Glass Lid or Cooking Pot in the
oven or microwave.
• Do not allow the pot to stand in water for a long time (you can
leave water in the pot to soak). There is an area on the base of the
ceramic pot that has to remain unglazed for manufacturing
purposes. This unglazed area is porous, therefore will soak up
water, this should be avoided.
• Due to normal wear and tear through the product’s life, the outer
surface may start appearing ‘crazed’, this is when the glaze on
the ceramic pot wears and appears crackled.
• Do not pre-heat
Care and cleaning
• Disconnect power cord from the mains and allow the Slow
Cooker to cool before cleaning.
• Do not use metal utensils or abrasive cleaners when cleaning.
• Remove the Glass Lid (2) and Cooking Pot (3) from the Base Unit
(5) and clean in hot soapy water.
• Wipe the sides of the main unit with a damp cloth.
• The Cooking Pot and Glass Lid are dishwasher safe.
DO NOT IMMERSE THE MAIN UNIT IN WATER
