Cleaning & Care:
•
Before cleaning your slow cooker, always ensure that the temperature control dial is in the OFF
position and the unit is unplugged from the mains outlet.
•
Always allow the unit to cool before cleaning.
•
Remove the cooking pot and glass lid and wash in hot, soapy water, using a mild household
detergent. Rinse and dry thoroughly. To soften stubborn, cooked on foods, fill the cooking pot
with warm, soapy water and allow it to soak. Remove the cooked-on residue by lightly scrubbing
with a nylon kitchen brush.
•
The cooking can also be washed in the dishwasher; however care should be taken not to chip
or crack the cooking pot.
IMPORTANT:
The removable cooking pot will not withstand the shock of sudden temperature changes.
Use hot water to wash your cooking pot after cooking.
NEVER use cold water if the cooking pot is still hot.
•
The Heating Base may be cleaned with a soft cloth and warm soapy water. Wipe dry. Do not use
harsh or abrasive cleansers.
CAUTION:
Never submerge the slow cooker’s heating base in water or other liquid.
IMPORTANT:
After cleaning, allow the appliance to dry fully before using again.
Do not use the appliance if damp. Ensure the appliance is completely clean and dry before storing.
