Helpful hints

1. Cooking times may vary based on the selected temperature, the current
temperature of the cooking pot and the temperature of the ingredients.
2. Always use nonstick utensils in the cooking pot. Metal utensils may damage the
non-stick coating.
3. For even browning, make sure that the food is in an even layer on the bottom of
the cooking pot or roasting rack.
4. Cooking time and temperature can be adjusted at any time during the cooking
cycle in Oven. Press the Time/Oven Temp button and turn the Adjustment Dial to
adjust.
5. Cooked foods may not brown or crisp on top as much as in a conventional oven.
Instead foods will brown on the bottom and crisp on the bottom and sides.
6. If you do not manually set a temperature and time, the unit will automatically
start at the preset temperature and time.
7. Multiple modes may be required to cook recipes. To change modes during
cooking cycles, simply turn the Function Dial to select the new desired mode.
Once the new mode is selected, begin the programming process.
8. If the cooking pot is removed during the cooking cycle and then placed back into
the unit, the cooking process will continue as though it was not interrupted.
9. The lid is not a sealed fit. Don't remove unnecessarily as the built-up heat will
escape. Each time you remove the lid, allow 10 minutes of extra cooking time.
10. If cooking soups or stews, leave a 2-inch space between the top of the pot and the
food surface to allow simmering.
11. Many slow cook recipes call for all day cooking. Ingredients can be prepared the
night before and stored in food containers in the refrigerator overnight. In the
morning transfer the ingredients to the pot, add warm liquid or gravy and set the
slow cooker for the desired temperature setting and time.
12. Most meat and vegetable slow cook recipes require 8-10 hours on LOW or 4-6
hours on HIGH.
13. Do not use frozen meat or poultry unless it is thoroughly thawed out first.
14. Pieces of food cut into small pieces will cook quicker. A degree of 'trial and error'
will be required to fully optimize the potential of your multicooker.
15. It is recommended that you do not store foods in the pot in the refrigerator,
however, if you do store food in the pot do not put it into the heating base for a
minimum of 45 minutes to allow it to warm up slightly. Make sure it is completely
dry before placing it in the slow cooker base.
16. Never use the pot on top of the stove. It is meant for use in the multicooker only.
