Instructions for use
Before using for the fi rst time, wash the pot & pot stand in hot, soapy water. Do not emerge
the heated lid in water. Wipe clean with a clean damp cloth. Make sure all parts are clean
and dry before assembling the product. We recommend fi lling the pan up to 2/3 of its
height (6–8 cm max.) in order to avoid contact between the food and the heating lid.
The heated lid has one temperature setting in order to cook food evenly. The temperature
inside the pan is 160–180 °C (the temperature depends on the amount and type of food
in the pan).
DO NOT PREHEAT THE HEATED LID OR THE COOKING PAN WHEN EMPTY!!!
Pre-heating the cooking pot without any food inside, i.e. “dry heating” can result in
damage to the non-stick coating on the heated lid and cooking pot. If you need to pre-
heat the pot then pour a small amount of water or oil into the pot before applying the lid.
We recommend you lift the lid as little as possible during cooking as this will let heat
and steam escape and cause food to dry out. Keeping the lid closed will keep your food
succulent and meat shouldn’t need basting.
The heated lid has four (screw) vents. They help to regulate the temperature and steam
inside the cooking pot, unlike a standard oven. Check the screws after every few uses to
ensure they are clear as over time they can become blocked.
WARNING!!!
Lifting the lid will reduce the temperature inside the cooking
pot and therefore increase the cooking time. Always check your
meat is cooked thoroughly.
DO NOT
use sharp or metal utensils inside the cooking pot as
this will damage the non-stick surface.
ALWAYS USE
wooden,
plastic or silicone utensils.
Never cut up food in the pot!
Do not line the pot with aluminium foil, baking paper or
anything else between the lid and pan
.
Always disconnect the appliance from the mains socket if leaving it without su-
pervision.
If the power cable is damaged, immediately disconnect the appliance from the mains
socket and discontinue use.
Care and Cleaning
Ensure that the lid has completely cooled and that the power is disconnected before
cleaning.
CAUTION!!!
•
Do not immerse the lid in water.
•
Do not wash the lid under running water.
•
NEVER
wash the lid in a dishwasher.
Wipe the base of the lid with a clean damp cloth that has been soaked in warm soapy
water, and dry thoroughly.
DO NOT
use abrasive cleaners, or steel wool on any part of the heated lid or cooking pot.
The non-stick coating makes the cooking pot very easy to clean. If food sticks to the
cooking pot, then leave to soak in warm soapy water, then wipe, rinse and dry thoroughly.
