•  When cooking with vegetables, place them 

in the crock insert first, and then place the 
meat on top.

•  Always ensure that food or liquid comes to 

at least half way up the wall of the crock 
insert, as the element is located on the 
sides of the slow cooker.

•  When roasting whole pieces of lamb, beef 

or chicken, it is not necessary to add 
liquid. Pot roasts and corned meats should 
be barely covered with liquid.

•  Do not use oven bags in your slow cooker.
•  When preparing meat for casseroles, lightly 

coat the pieces in flour and brown before 
adding to the slow cooker. This helps to 
seal in the juices and flavours, and keeps 
the meat tender.

•  Frozen casseroles can be placed in the 

cold slow cooker

 

and heated for 5-8 hours, 

depending on the quantity. Do not place 
frozen food into a heated slow cooker.

•  If a recipe results in too much liquid, 

turn the slow cooker

 

to the HIGH setting, 

remove the lid and cook until sufficient 
liquid has evaporated.

•  To thicken a casserole, set the slow 

cooker

 

to the HIGH setting and stir 

through a thickening agent such as 
cornflour combined with a little water. 
Allow to simmer until thickened, stirring 
occasionally.

•  Stirring is rarely necessary, as the element 

wraps around the sides of the slow cooker, 
preventing the food from sticking to the 
base.

•  Leave the lid on the slow cooker

 

during 

cooking to maintain heat and moisture.

•  Reduce cooking times when the slow 

cooker is not completely full to achieve a 
better cooking result as the slow cooker 
heats up faster when not filled up to the 
rim.

Tips for Slow Cooking

Care and Cleaning

•  When cooking with vegetables, place them in 

the crock insert first, and then place the meat 
on top.

•  Always ensure that food or liquid comes to at 

least half way up the wall of the crock insert, 
as the element is located on the sides of the 
slow cooker.

•  When roasting whole pieces of lamb, beef or 

chicken, it is not necessary to add liquid. Pot 
roasts and corned meats should be barely 
covered with liquid.

•  Do not use oven bags in your slow cooker.

•  When preparing meat for casseroles, lightly 

coat the pieces in flour and brown before 
adding to the slow cooker. This helps to seal 
in the juices and flavours, and keeps the meat 
tender.

•  Frozen casseroles can be placed in the 

cold slow cooker and heated for 5-8 hours, 
depending on the quantity. Do not place 
frozen food into a heated slow cooker.

•  If a recipe results in too much liquid, turn 

the slow cooker to the HIGH setting, remove 
the lid and cook until sufficient liquid has 
evaporated.

•  To thicken a casserole, set the slow cooker to 

the HIGH setting and stir through a thickening 
agent such as cornflour combined with a little 
water. Allow to simmer until thickened, stirring 
occasionally.

•  Stirring is rarely necessary, as the element 

wraps around the sides of the slow cooker, 
preventing the food from sticking to the base.

•  Leave the lid on the slow cooker during 

cooking to maintain heat and moisture.

•  Reduce cooking times when the slow cooker 

is not completely full to achieve a better 
cooking result as the slow cooker heats up 
faster when not filled up to the rim.

Wash the crock insert and lid in hot soapy 
water. To remove food that is cooked onto the 
bottom, soak the crock insert in warm water 
before cleaning and scrub lightly with a plastic 
or nylon brush. Rinse well and dry. The crock 
insert and lid are also dishwasher safe for added 
convenience.

Note: 

Do not place the hot crock insert under 

cold water.

Wipe the exterior of the slow cooker with a 
damp cloth and polish dry. 

DO NOT use harsh 

abrasives, scourers or chemicals to clean 
any part of your slow cooker as these will 
damage the surfaces.

CAUTION: Do not immerse the base of the 
slow cooker in water or any other liquid.
