Using the Slow Cooker menu
The Slow Cook menu does not cook under
pressure, but does need the lid locked
to commence cooking. It cooks similar
to standard slow cookers and uses low
temperatures and longer cooking times to
achieve tender, flavoursome meals.
Place the Pressure Cooker on a flat, level
surface.
Plug in the unit. The unit will beep, and
the indicator lights and the LCD screen will
illuminate. The Pressure Cooker will default
to the Pressure Cooker menu, on the HIGH
setting. ‘Pressure’ and ‘HIGH’ will flash on
the display.
1. Place your food and liquid inside the
removable cooking pan.
Note: All food must be completely covered by
liquid to ensure even cooking results.
2. Place the lid on, and lock by rotating anti-
clockwise to the LOCK position.
3. Using the finger tab, flick the pressure
and steam valve to the ‘RELEASE’
position.
4. If the menu is not set to Slow Cook, set
the cooking menu by scrolling through the
MENU button until a light appears next
to ‘Slow Cooker’ on the control panel, and
HIGH is flashing in the LCD screen.
5. To select the slow cooker setting of LOW,
press the MENU button, and LOW will
flash in the LCD screen.
6. To select the cooking time, press the TIME
button, and then press the
and
buttons, until your desired time appears
in the LCD screen. Each button press
will adjust the time by 30 minutes to a
maximum cooking time of 9 hours.
Note: The minimum cooking time is 30
minutes, and the maximum cooking time is
9 hours.
7. Once you have set the desired MENU and
cooking TIME settings, press START.
8. ‘Cooking’ will show in the LCD screen and
the time will begin to count down. (Note
that in the Slow Cooker menu setting,
the unit does not cook using pressure but
works like a standard slow cooker.
9. After the set cooking time has elapsed,
the unit will beep and will automatically
switch to the KEEP WARM setting. The
LCD screen will therefore change from
‘Cooking’ to ‘Keep Warm’. The Pressure
Cooker can stay in the Keep Warm setting
for 4 hours.
Note: As the Slow Cook menu does not cook
under pressure, you can remove the lid
during cooking to check your slow cooking
progress. Only lift the lid if necessary as slow
cooking uses very low temperatures to cook,
so the unit does not recover lost heat quickly.
TIP: The Slow Cooking settings are in the
Cooking Menu Settings Table on page 13.
NOTE: The unit can not work without liquid.
Ensure a minimum of 250ml of liquid is used
inside the removable cooking pan.
Note: During cooking, steam will build up in
the unit, so when lifting the lid use a kitchen
glove or mitt to protect your hand.
