7. Set the required amount of time by pressing the TIME button, each time you press the time
button, the time will increase by 30 minutes, to a maximum of 10 hours. If you don’t press the
time button for 3 seconds, the cooking time will be the time showing on the LED display window.
NOTE: if you would prefer less cooking time than the default setting of 6 hours, continue to
press the cooking time button past 10 hours and the cook time will display at 30 minutes. Press
the button to increase the time by 30 minute increments.
8. Once the cooking time is finished, the unit will switch to standby mode for 10 minutes. The
digital display will countdown the 10 minute standby time and will automatically switch to warm.
9. Once the 10 minute period has elapsed, the slow cooker will automatically switch off.
Serving
1. Using oven gloves, remove the lid, and set it down on a heatproof surface.
2.
It’s best to ladle the food from the slow cooker into serving dishes or plates.
3.
Don’t carry the slow cooker; the trailing cable may catch on something.
4. You may use oven gloves to lift the cook/ crock pot, complete with the lid, but take care
– it
could weigh as much as 7kg (15lb).
5. Cleaning can be made much easier if you remove all the cooked food from the cook/ crock pot
as soon as it’s cooked, then fill the cook/ crock pot with warm water to soak.
Gravy/ Sauce
Slow cooking retains more of the juices than normal cooking. This tends to increase the volume of
cooking liquid, and thin the sauce or gravy. To allow for this, sauces should initially be thicker than
normal. Anything to be sautéed could be tossed in seasoned flour beforehand, to thicken the
gravy/sauce.
