Using Your Programmable
Slow Cooker
1. Prepare your recipe according to
directions.
2. Place prepared food into the
removable ceramic pot and cover
with the glass lid.
3. Plug the unit into an electrical outlet
and set the time and desired
temperature setting. It is not
necessary to stir the ingredients
during the cooking process.
4. Cooking times may differ by the
amount of ingredients, room
temperature and many other
factors. Adjust the cooking time in
reference to the actual result.
5. Repeatedly removing the glass lid
will decrease the temperature in the
ceramic pot and lengthen the
cooking times.
6. Certain dishes may not cook if the
room temperature is below 41°F or
5°C.
7. When finished, press the “start -
stop" button and unplug the unit.
You can serve the meal in the
ceramic pot.
8. When removing the glass lid, tilt so
that the opening faces away from
you to avoid being burned by the
steam.
Note: The glass lid and the ceramic
pot are hot. Use a cloth or pot holder
to hold them. Exercise caution to avoid
burns.
9. The sides of the metal housing of
the slow cooker get very warm. Use
oven mitts or pot holders to remove
the ceramic pot.
10.Let ceramic pot and glass lid cool
completely before washing.
11.First remove the glass lid if ceramic
pot is placed in oven to reheat food.
Warning: If the ceramic pot has been
placed in the refrigerator and is cold,
Always allow the ceramic pot to come
to room temperature before placing in a
hot oven to avoid sudden temperature
changes which could damage or cracks
to the ceramic pot or cause injury.
Note: The temperature level indicator
lights will cycle during the cooking
process. This is normal.
Guide To Slow Cooking
Always allow sufficient time for the food
to cook. It is almost impossible to
overcook food in a slow cooker,
particularly when using the low or keep
warm settings. Most recipes contained
within this book, can be cooked on any
one of the temperature settings,
however cooking times will vary
accordingly. Each recipe in this book
will give specific instructions indicating
the appropriate temperature setting as
well as the suggested cooking times.
Your favorite traditional recipes can be
adapted easily by halving the amount
of liquid and increasing the cooking
time considerably. See the guide below
for suggested cooking times and
settings when adjusting your favorite
recipes.
Note: These times are approximate.
Times can vary depending on
ingredients and quantities in recipes.
All food should be cooked with the
glass lid in place. Each time the lid is
lifted, both the heat and moisture in the
food are lost. Cooking times should
thus be extended by approximately 30
minutes.
Liquid Amounts
When food is cooking in your slow
cooker, very little moisture boils away.
To compensate this, it is advisable to
halve the liquid content of traditional
recipes. However, if after cooking, the
liquid content is excessive, remove the
lid and operate the slow cooker on the
high setting for 30-45 minutes or until
the liquid reduces by the desired
amount.
