soapy water, rinse well and dry thoroughly.

Ensure operation area is well ventilated.

HAND TIPS

Your new slow cooker is designed to gently cook your food; the longer
the cooking time the more the flavours will develop and infuse. The
recipes can be hurried along, but it is not recommended. One hour of

HIGH generally equals two hours of LOW. So, you can accelerate the
cooking time, but the results will not be as good as the intended, slow
gentle cooking process.

For appearance, texture and flavour, it is best to flash fry meat before
placing in the slow cooker.

Dried beans must be pre-soaked and fresh kidney beans must be boiled
for at LEAST 12 minutes before being added; canned varieties of kidney
beans are generally pre-boiled and safe to add straightaway. If in doubt,

contact the manufacturer.
NEVER let the slow cooker run out of liquid.

Lifting the lid during cooking can put the cooking time back by 15
minutes.

For any recipes that include milk or cream – add as close to the end as
possible to avoid curdling.

Remember the slow cooker gets hot during use; so always ensure you
wear oven gloves when handling the slow cooker, and others in the

kitchen are aware that the slow cooker is hot.
NEVER cook meat, seafood or poultry from frozen. ALWAYS thaw
completely first. Note thawed food will cook quicker than its freshly

prepared counterparts.
