Before using the slow
cooker for the first time
• This method of cooking is ideal for preparing
tougher cuts of meat, giving them the long, gentle
simmering that ensures that they become tender
and full of flavour.
1 Remove all labels and tags from the product.
2 Wash the crock pot and glass lid in hot soapy
water, with a sponge or a dish cloth, rinse thoroughly
and dry .
IMPORTANT
DO NOT IMMERSE THE SLOW COOKER BASE IN
WATER.
Please note
During initial use you may notice a slight odour due
to the burning off of manufacturing residues. This is
completely normal and will disappear after a few uses.
Instructions for use
1 Place the base on a dry, level, heat resistant
surface, away from the edge of the work surface.
Do not use on the floor.
2 Place ingredients into the ceramic crock pot
place the pot into the base. Cover with the glass
lid. If you need to pre-cook or brown foods prior to
slow cooking, this must be done in a pan. Do
not try to brown or pre-cook food in the slow cooker.
3 With the control knob

IMPORTANT
The slow cooker works by building up heat and
maintaining an even temperature. To get the best
cooking results, do not remove the lid during cooking,
since this will lose heat and therefore slow down the
cooking time. The glass lid allows you to monitor the
cooking progress without interrupting the cooking time.
Suitable foods for slow
cooking
• Most foods are suited to slow cooking methods,
however there are a few guidelines that need to be
followed.
• Make sure all frozen ingredients are well thawed out.
• Cut root vegetables into small, even pieces, as they
take longer to cook than meat. They should be gently
sauted for 2-3 minutes before slow cooking. Ensure
that root vegetables are always placed at the bottom
of the pot and all ingredients are immersed in the
cooking liquid.
• Trim all excess fat from meat before cooking, since
the slow cooking method does not allow fat to
evaporate.
• If adapting an existing recipe from conventional
cooking, you may need to cut down on the amount of
liquid used. Liquid will not evaporate from the slow
cooker to the same extent as with conventional
cooking.
5 Switch off and unplug the slow cooker after cooking
and remove the crock pot using oven gloves.
CAUTION
BE CAREFUL NOT TO TOUCH THE BASE UNIT AFTER
COOKING AS IT REMAINS HOT .
About slow cooking
• Slow cooking has always been the best way to
prepare a nutritious hot meal with minimum
preparation and maximum free time away from the
kitchen. Morphy Richards has brought this style of
cooking right up to date with this modern, cooking
system.
• Traditionally slow cooking has centred on soups
and casseroles but with this oval ceramic crock pot
you can also produce most modern family meals
and dinner party dishes. This pot is convenient as
well as looking good enough to take straight to the
table for serving. (Always place the crock pot on a
heat proof mat or surface).
• Never leave uncooked food at room temperature in
the slow cooker.
• Do not use the slow cooker to reheat food.
• Uncooked red beans must be soaked and boiled for
at least 10 minutes to remove toxins before use in a
slow cooker.
• Insert a meat thermometer into joints of roasts,
hams, or whole chickens to ensure they are cooked
to the desired temperature.
