Before first time use
Before using the cooker for the first
time, remove all labels and tags from
the product.
Wash the ceramic pot and glass lid in
hot soapy water with a sponge or a
dishcloth, rinse and dry thoroughly.
Do not immerse the slow cooker base in
water or any other liquid.
During initial use you may notice a slight
odour, this is due to the burning off of
residues that have been left on during
the manufacturing process. This is
completely normal and will disappear
after using the unit.
Place the cooker on a flat level surface.
Pre-prepare the food that you are going
to place inside the ceramic bowl.
Do not brown meat in the ceramic pot
before slow cooking. Use a separate pan
on a hob to brown meat and then add it
to the slow cooker.
Do not overfill the slow cooker. Only fill
the slow cooker until it is three quarters
full.
Defrost/ thaw meat fully before adding
it to the slow cooker.
Please note the slow cooker should not
be used to re-heat cooked food.
