CARINg FOR THE REMOvAbLE STONEWARE COOKINg POT
The removable Stoneware Cooking Pot (A) and the lid go safely into the dishwasher or may be
washed in hot soapy water. Do not use abrasive cleaning compounds - a cloth, sponge or plastic
spatula will usually remove any stubborn residue.
To remove water spots and other stains, use a non-abrasive cleaner or vinegar.
As with any fine ceramic, the Stoneware Cooking Pot will not withstand sudden temperature changes.

Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners or scouring pads as continued use will scratch the highly pol-
ished surface and make subsequent cleaning more difficult.

SlOw COOKER
1. Set the appliance on a flat, dry, heat resistance surface.
2. Place the food in the Stoneware Cooking Pot (A), according to the recipe.
3. Plug the power cord into a suitable electrical socket.
4. There are 3 temperature settings. LOW is recommended for slow "all day" cooking. HIGH pro-
vides faster cooking. 1 hour on HIGH = about 2 hours on LOW. KEEP WARM is only for keeping
food warm. DO NOT cook on the KEEP WARM setting.
To select the temperature, turn the Selector Dial (D) to the required setting.
5. Frozen foods such as vegetables or prawns may be used as part of a recipe. However, do not
cook frozen meats (such as beef or chicken) unless you first add at least 250ml (8fl. oz) of warm
liquid. The liquid will act as a "cushion" to prevent sudden changes in temperature. Cook recipes
containing frozen meats an additional 4 hours on LOW or 2 hours on HIGH.
6. When the cooking time is completed, turn the Selector Dial (D) to the KEEP WARM setting until
the food is required.
NOTE:
We do not recommend using the KEEP WARM setting for more than
4 hours.
