Sunbeam are very safety conscious when
designing and manufacturing consumer
products, but it is essential that the product
user also exercise care when using an
electrical appliance. Listed below are
precautions which are essential for the safe
use of an electrical appliance:
• Read carefully and save all the instructions
provided with an appliance.
• Always turn the power off at the power outlet
before you insert or remove a plug. Remove
by grasping the plug - do not pull on the
cord.
• Turn the power off and remove the plug
when the appliance is not in use and
before cleaning.
• Do not use your appliance with an extension
cord unless this cord has been checked
and tested by a qualified technician or
service person.
• Always use your appliance from a power
outlet of the voltage (A.C. only) marked
on the appliance.
• Close supervision is necessary when your
appliance is being used near children or
infirm persons.
• Never leave an appliance unattended while
in use.
• Young children should be supervised to
ensure that they do not play with the
appliance.
• Do not use an appliance for any purpose
other than its intended use.
• Do not place an appliance on or near a hot
gas flame, electric element or on a heated
oven. Do not place on top of any other
appliance.
• Do not let the power cord of an appliance
hang over the edge of a table or bench top or
touch any hot surface.
• For safety reasons and to avoid maintenance
by unskilled persons, some appliances are
‘sealed’ using tamperproof screws. Such
appliances should always be returned to the
nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service Centre
for adjustment or repair if required.
• Do not operate any electrical appliance with
a damaged cord or after the appliance has
been dropped or damaged in any manner. If
damage is suspected, return the appliance
to the nearest Sunbeam Appointed Service
Centre
for examination, repair or adjustment.
• For additional protection, Sunbeam
recommend the use of a residual current
device (RCD) with a tripping current not
exceeding 30mA in the electrical circuit
supplying power to your appliances.
• Do not immerse the appliance in water
or any other liquid unless recommended.
• Appliances are not intended to be operated
by means of an external timer or separate
remote control system.
• This appliance is intended to be used in
household and similar applications such
as: staff kitchen areas in shops, offices and
other working environments; farm houses; by

Slow cooking is the secret to flavoursome
foods and tender moist meats cooked to
perfection. The slow cooker is designed to do
just that. Meals are cooked over a long period
of time, about 6-10 hours. Ideally food can
be placed in the slow cooker in the morning
and left all day, arriving home to a delicious
hot dinner!
It’s easy with the Sunbeam slow cooker. Take
the time to read through this book, and you
will soon discover how easy it is to prepare
delicious meals and how to get the most from
your Sunbeam slow cooker.
It’s versatile.
The slow cooker will cook soups, stews,
casseroles, roasts and steam puddings.
It’s economical.
The slow cooker uses little power. Once the
slow cooker reaches temperature, the food
also cooks on retained heat. The slow cooker
is ideal for cooking cheaper cuts of meat, as
the slow, moist cooking tenderises the meat
and develops the flavour of foods.
No fuss cooking.
The internal heating element evenly cooks
food without the need to stir. Food also cooks
slowly so you can leave it to attend to other
things.
keep in mind that food does not overcook in
the slow cooker, so a few additional hours of
cooking will not burn foods.
It’s easy to clean.
The crock insert is removable and
dishwasher safe.
It’s safe for cooking.
Slow cooking is a safe way to cook foods
because the settings reach temperatures high
enough to prevent bacterial growth.
Guaranteed reliability.
Your new Sunbeam slow cooker will give you
years of reliable service, backed by Sunbeam’s
12 month Replacement Guarantee.
