Care and maintenance
• Before doing anything else, unplug the slow cooker from the wall socket.
• Using oven gloves remove the lid and ceramic bowl and place them on a heatproof
surface.
• Even if you do not intend to wash up right away, fill the ceramic bowl with warm water,
otherwise the residual heat may bake any food debris on the ceramic bowl, making its
eventual removal more difficult.
• Do not soak the exterior of the ceramic bowl in water. The base is porous and will soak
up water which may cause it to crack when heated. Wash the lid and ceramic bowl in
hot soapy water using a cloth or sponge, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use a
scouring pad. The ceramic bowl may be washed in the dishwasher.
• All other surfaces, internal and external, should be wiped with a damp cloth. You may
use a little mild household detergent (washing up liquid) if necessary. These surfaces
should be dry before re-using the slow cooker or storing it away.
• After some time in use, the glaze on the ceramic bowl may develop ‘crazing’, a network
of small cracks. This marking is superficial and should not be a cause for concern.
• Do not immerse the body of the slow cooker in water or any other liquid.
• Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.
• Only the ceramic bowl is dishwasher safe. Do not put any other part of the slow cooker
into the dishwasher.
