PREPARING FOR USE

Before you use your slow cooker, remove all packaging components and wash the lid and stoneware with warm soapy
water and dry thoroughly.
IMPORTANT NOTES: Some countertop and table surfaces are not designed to withstand the prolonged heat generated
by certain appliances. Do not set the heated unit on a surface that may be damaged by heat. We recommend placing an
insulated pad or suitably sized trivet under your slow cooker to prevent possible damage to the surface.
Please use caution when placing your stoneware on a ceramic or smooth glass cook top stove, countertop, table, or other
surface. Due to the nature of the stoneware, the rough bottom surface may scratch some surfaces if caution is not used.
Always place protective padding under stoneware before placing it on a table or countertop.
During initial use of this appliance, some slight smoke or odour may be detected. This is normal with many heating
appliances and will not recur after a few uses.
HOW TO USE YOUR SLOW COOKER
1. Place the stoneware into the heating base, add your ingredients into the stoneware and cover with the lid. Plug in your

USAGE NOTES:
• If the mains power has been interrupted (power cut), the display and lights will flash when the power is restored. All the
slow cooker settings will have been lost. As a result, the food may be unsafe to eat. If you are unaware of how long the
power was off, we suggest you discard the food inside.
• If desired, you can manually switch to the KEEP WARM setting when your recipe has finished cooking.
• To avoid over or under-cooking, always fill the stoneware ½ to ¾ full and conform to the recommended cooking times.
• Do not overfill the stoneware. To prevent spillover, do not fill the stoneware higher than ¾ full.
• Always cook with the lid on for the recommended time. Do not remove the lid during the first two hours of cooking to
allow the heat to build up efficiently.
• Always wear oven gloves when handling the lid or stoneware.
• Unplug when cooking has finished and before cleaning.
• The removable stoneware is ovenproof. Do not use removable stoneware on a gas burner, electric hob or under a grill.
