PRIOR TO FIRST USE
Before using the appliance for the rst me, proceed as follows: carefully unpack the
appliance and remove all packaging material. Keep the packaging (plasc bags and
cardboard) out of reach of children. Aer unpacking the appliance, carefully check it for
external damage that may have occurred during transport. Place the appliance on a heat-
resistant, at surface, near a suitable earthed socket. Ensure sucient venlaon space
above the appliance.
Clean the lid and ceramic bowl with warm water and a mild washing-up liquid. Dry these
components thoroughly. Ensure that all moisture is removed from them. Clean the metal
inner pan and exterior of the appliance with a damp cloth. Place the ceramic bowl in the
appliance. In spite of this prior cleaning, when using your slow cooker for the rst me,
it is possible that you can sense a burning smell because of the producon residues that
become hot. Aer using the appliance a few mes, this smell will have disappeared. Check
that the voltage stated on the appliance's informaon plate matches the mains voltage of
your mains network. Insert the plug in an earthed socket.
COOKING WITH THE SLOW COOKER
Fill the ceramic bowl with a lile water or with selected ingredients in boiling water. When
preparing meat and vegetables together, rst place the vegetables in the bowl. Cover the
ceramic bowl with the glass lid. Switch on the appliance by seng the selector switch to the
required posion. The on/o indicator led lights up.
Use LOW to slowly cook during the day or night. At the HIGH posion, the cooking process
will go twice as fast. A dish that is cooked at LOW for approx. 10 hours, will cook in 4 to 6
hours at HIGH. If you select WARM, the slow cooker maintains a constant temperature once
the dish has been cooked and the correct temperature has been reached.
Do not take o the lid while cooking when this is not necessary. Taking o the lid oen,
will slow down the cooking process.
CAUTION: when the lid is taken o, hot moist air escapes that could lead to burns.
Always pick up the lid by the knob and preferably use oven gloves.
Aer cooking, switch the selector switch to OFF and remove the plug from the socket.
CAUTION: the ceramic bowl may crack due to sudden changes in temperature. Therefore,
do not submerge the hot bowl in cold water.
TIPS
• Always ll the ceramic bowl with boiling liquid, never with cold liquid.
• Always wear oven gloves when moving the slow cooker during use.
• Dried beans, such a red kidney beans, must always be soaked for a night and then pre-
cooked for 10-15 minutes before placing them in the slow cooker, in order to remove
any toxins.
• Beans from ns are added 30-45 minutes before the end of the cooking me.
• Rice, noodles and pasta are not suitable for long cooking mes. Cook these products
separately and add them in the last 30 minutes.
• Do not place frozen meat or poultry in the slow cooker. All products must rst be
defrosted thoroughly.
• When preparing a combinaon of meat and root vegetables, always place the root
vegetables at the boom of the ceramic bowl.
• Do not ll the slow cooker up to the edge with food.
• Taking o the lid oen, will slow down the cooking process. Do not take o the lid
during the rst half of the cooking me.
• The mes found in recipes are only guidelines. The actual cooking me depends
on dierent factors, such as the quality of the ingredients, the sizes of the dierent
pieces, the amounts, the number of mes that the lid is taken o, etc.
Notes
Ensure that all the food is fully cooked before consuming it. When slow cooking, you are
preparing the products below boiling temperature. Liquids do not ‘boil’ at this temperature
and lile steam or vapour is produced. Major advantage of this is that the food does not
burn and that srring is hardly necessary. Slow cooking is not only praccal, it also helps to
maintain the avours and nutrients in your dish.
