VITACLAY VM7800-5 Operating And Care Instructions page 7

• ALWAYS use lots of liquid: we recommend at least 8 cups of
liquid for each hour of cooking.
• For dishes that cook more than 3-4 hours, CHECK your liquid
levels periodically by opening the pot and looking. If there are a
lot of vegetables or other ingredients, stir the bottom to ensure
there is no sticking. If the liquid is running low, add warm or
room-temperature liquid. If the liquid is almost gone, turn the
machine off and allow it to cool down before adding more liquid
and resuming the cooking cycle.
• NEVER cook roasts, casseroles or very starchy dishes like
pasta, potatoes or oatmeal in the stock pot. These dishes do not
typically contain enough liquid and tend to burn and can damage
the pot. If you choose to cook these types of dishes in the stock
pot, the warranty will be invalidated.
• NEVER pre-heat the pot in the cooker or do any "dry cooking"
such as baking. Ensure at least 8 cups of liquid are present for
each hour of cooking time.
If you follow these simple recommendations you should enjoy your
clay pot and VitaClay cooker for years to come!
Have a healthy day!
