Slow Cooker
Operating Instructions
1.
Place food into the Ceramic Pot
4
and
add water as required (do not fill the
Ceramic Pot
4
to more than 80% of
its capacity, which is 2cm from the top
edge). Place the Ceramic Pot
4
into
the Aluminium Liner
1
and place the
Lid
2
on top of the Ceramic Pot
4
.
2.
To operate the cooker, turn the Control
Switch
6
to the desired setting.
The
LOW
8
setting is suitable for food
that takes longer to cook (e.g. joints
of meat) and will give a fuller/tastier
flavour. It will take approx. 4½ hours to
get to 80°C.
The
HIGH
9
setting offers the
shortest cooking time - cooking takes
approximately 4 hours. This can be
reduced by adding more liquid when
assembling the ingredients in the
Ceramic Pot
4
. It will take approx. 2
hours to get to 80°C.
The
KEEP WARM
10
setting allows
the food to be kept warm (at approx.
60°C) once it is fully cooked and is not
suitable for cooking food. Ensure that
the food is fully cooked first.
3.
When cooking or keeping warm is
completed, turn the Control Switch
6
to the OFF
7
position, switch off at
the socket and unplug from the mains
supply point.
4.
The Ceramic Pot
4
can be lifted out of
the Cooker Body
5
and placed on the
table. You should wear oven gloves and
use a protective mat as the ceramic pot
will still be hot.
