THE CONTROL PANEL AND PROGRAMMES
•
When not being used to cook, the control dial on the slow cooker should be turned to off and
the mains plug should also be switched off and removed from the socket.
•
The final temperature of the food is about 120ºC whether it has been cooked on the low or
high setting. The only difference between these settings is the amount of time the cooking
process takes.
•
The slow cooker has three temperature settings so cooking times can be easily adapted.
Meals can be slowly simmered all day long, or can be ready in just a few hours. Over time you
will develop a feel for how long your favourite recipes take, and this cooking guide offers a
helpful starting point.
•
AUTO: the standard setting, with an average cooking time of 6-8 hours. Food is cooked on
HIGH until the correct temperature is reached then kept warm until you are ready to serve.
•
LOW: if you wish to extend the cooking time.
•
HIGH: if you wish to shorten the cooking time.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
•
The beauty of slow cooking is that you can add the ingredients, turn on the slow cooker and
enjoy a tender, moist and flavourful meal hours later, with little work required.
•
This 3.5 litre slow cooker has a maximum working capacity of 2.5 litres, allowing for bubbling
and simmering.
•
Lifting the lid of the slow cooker results in temperature loss and adds about 25 minutes to the
cooking time. Avoid having to lift lid if at all possible.
•
Ideally the slow cooker should be at least 1/3 full when cooking food for it to perform at its
best.
