seconds to turn the slow cooker off.
Unplug the slow cooker after use.
Important: When cooking in
the timer mode for extended
periods of time make sure
the food does not dry out or
burn.
If during cooking with the timer set,
you wish to adjust the cooking time,
simply press either the timer
increase or timer decrease button.
The following times are a guide only
and will vary according to the type
of food being cooked and
quantities.
low setting will gradually cook
food during the day and takes
approximately 6-8 hours. This
setting can also be used when
cooking more delicate foods which
would benefit from a slightly lower
rate of cooking such as baked
apples, poached fruit.
high setting will quicken up the
cooking process compared to the
Low setting with cooking times
between 3-5 hours.
keep warm setting – Use this
setting once food has been cooked
to keep food warm. We
recommend that food is not kept
warm for longer than 2 hours after
cooking and then switch off after
use. Taking the lid off will reduce the
temperature inside the cooking pot
so keep this to a minimum and
replace the lid quickly.
