Using your One Pot Cooker
Note: When using the cooker for the first
time you may notice a fine smoke haze
being emitted from the unit. This is normal
and is due to the initial heating of internal
components.
1. Before using your Crock-Pot one pot
cooker for the first time, remove the crock
insert and lid and wash them in warm
soapy water. Rinse and dry thoroughly and
replace.
2. Place the cooker on a flat level surface.
3. Prepare the food to be cooked and place
inside the crock. Attach the lid but
inserting the hinge mechanism into the
hinge slot at the rear of the heating base.
4. Insert the plug into a 230-240V power
outlet and turn the power ON.
5. Select the desired setting on the
temperature control dial: LOW, HIGH, or
KEEP WARM.
Note: Do not place very cold or frozen food in
the crock insert if it has been preheated as
this may cause the crock insert to crack.
Note: Transfer cooked food from the crock
insert into an airtight container before storing
in fridge or freezer.
Note: Do not place the crock insert under
cold water if it is still hot.
Note: The crock insert is oven safe so you
can reheat your precooked dishes in an oven
preheated to no more than 160ºC.
Important: Food should not be cooked on the
KEEP WARM setting as this will not get hot
enough to cook. This setting should only
be used to keep hot, cooked food warm for
serving.
Note: The crock cannot be removed from the
heating base without first detaching the lid
by lifting it out of the hinge slot.
Important: Maximum food capacity is 1.3kg whole piece of meat.

Wash the crock insert and lid in hot soapy
water. To remove food that is cooked onto
the bottom, soak the crock insert in warm
water before cleaning and scrub lightly with
a plastic or nylon brush. Rinse well and dry.
The crock insert and lid are also dishwasher
safe for added convenience.
Note: Do not place the hot crock insert under
cold water.
• If a recipe results in too much liquid,
turn the one pot cooker to the HIGH
setting, remove the lid and cook until
sufficient liquid has evaporated.
• To thicken a sauce, set the
the HIGH setting and stir through a
thic
kening agent such as cornflour
combined with a little water. Allow to
simmer until thickened, stirring
occasionally.
• Stirring is rarely necessary, as the element
wraps around the sides of the cooker,
preventing the food from sticking to the
base.
• Leave the lid on the cooker during
cooking to maintain heat and moisture.
Wipe the exterior of the cooker with a damp
cloth and poli
abrasives, scourers, alkaline cleaners or
chemicals to clean any part of your cooker as
these will damage the surfaces.
CAUTION: Do not immerse the base of the
cooker in water or any other liquid.
