using your slow cooker
Your slow cooker works by building up heat and maintaining an even temperature. For
the best results do not remove the glass lid before half the cooking time has elapsed. The
glass lid allows you to monitor cooking progress without interrupting the cooking time.
If you aren't going to serve your meal straight away, you can set the temperature control
of your slow cooker to LOW. This will keep your meal warm until you serve the food.
1. When cooking is finished, set the temperature control to the OFF position.
2. Unplug your slow cooker from the mains supply socket.
3. Using oven gloves, remove the glass lid. Angle the glass lid away from you as you
remove it. This will allow any build up of steam to escape safely away from your
hands, arms and face.
4. Carefully lift the ceramic cooking pot out of the cooker body. Place the ceramic
cooking pot on a heat resistant surface. Don't place the ceramic cooking pot on any
surface affected by heat. A trivet or an insulated pad is recommended. Be careful
when placing the cooking pot directly onto delicate or polished surfaces because the
base of the pot is unglazed and can cause scratches or other marks. We recommend
placing protective padding under the pot to protect these types of surface.
