responsible for their safety.

5. This appliance is NOT a toy. Children should be supervised to ensure they do NOT play

with this appliance.

6. Always follow the instructions when using this appliance.

7. The temperature of accessible surfaces/parts may become very hot when the appliance is

operating and may remain hot for some time after the appliance has been switched off.

8. To avoid the possibility of scalding, keep clear of steam escaping around the lid area.

9. Do not touch any internal surfaces until the slow cooker has fully cooled.

10. Do not use the slow cooker to re-heat food that has already been cooked.

11. Dried beans (e.g. red kidney beans) must be boiled for at least 10 minutes before being

added to the slow cooker. They are poisonous if eaten raw or undercooked.

12. CAUTION: Do not operate on an inclined plane. Place the slow cooker on a stable, level,

heat-resistant surface and out of reach of children.

13. Route the power cord so it does not overhang, and cannot be caught accidentally.

14. Unplug the slow cooker when not in use, before moving and before cleaning. Let it cool

down fully before cleaning and storing away.

15. There are no user serviceable parts. If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced by

the manufacturer or similarly qualied person in order to avoid hazard.

16. Do not operate this appliance with a damaged cord/plug or after the appliance has

malfunctioned, or been dropped or damaged in any manner. Contact Customer Service for

examination, adjustment, repair or replacement.

17. To disconnect turn dial to OFF, turn off the wall power outlet then grasp the plug and

remove from wall power socket. Never pull by the cord.

18. Do not try to cook in the slow cooker without using the ceramic bowl.

19. Leave a clear space of at least 75mm (3 inches) around the slow cooker when in use.

20. Do not cover the slow cooker or put anything on top of it while in use.

21. Do not use the slow cooker near or below curtains or other combustible materials.

22. Keep the power cord, the slow cooker, and the ceramic bowl away from hotplates, cook-

etc) other than the slow cooker.

26. Do not shock/bump the glass. The lid supplied with this is slow cooker is made from

tempered glass. However, this does not make it indestructible! Care needs to be taken

not to shock the glass as it may cause it to weaken and unexpectedly shatter into small

fragments for seemingly no reason.

27. Do not use accessories or attachments other than those supplied as specically for use

with the slow cooker.

28. Do not use the slow cooker for any purpose other than that described in these instructions.

Congratulations on the purchase of your new Russell Hobbs 4L Slow Cooker. Each unit is

manufactured to ensure safety and reliability. Before using the Slow Cooker for the rst time,

please read this instruction booklet carefully and keep it for future reference. Pass it on if you

pass on the Slow Cooker.

When using this appliance, basic safety precautions should always be followed.

1. Lid knob

2. Tempered glass lid assembly

3. Ceramic bowl

4. Cool touch handles

5. Cooking base

6. OFF/LOW/HIGH/WARM Control Dial

7. Power indicator light

THE CONTROL DIAL

The slow cooker is controlled by a 4-position Control Dial:

OFF The slow cooker is off.

LOW Cooks at low power.

HIGH Cooks at maximum power. Take care that the food does not dry out. If additional

liquid is required during the cooking process, it should be preheated before adding

to avoid possible cracking of the ceramic bowl. Cool liquids can be safely added in

small amounts to the middle of the food, away from the sides of the ceramic bowl.

WARM Rotate the control dial to WARM once the cooking time is over to keep the food

warm. Do not keep foods on the WARM setting for more than 4 hours.

NOTE: Do not use WARM setting to cook or to reheat food.

Caution, hot surface.

THE BENEFITS OF SLOW COOKING

• Health - The gentle cooking action reduces damage to vitamins and retains more of the

nutrients and avours. Also, cooking in a slow cooker does not require any added oil or

fats.

• Economy - Long slow cooking can tenderise the cheaper, tougher cuts of meat and uses

signicantly less power than an oven or the small hobb on the average cook top.

• Convenience - Prepare the ingredients the night before, put them in the slow cooker in the

morning and have a delicious meal waiting for you when you get home.

BEFORE FIRST USE

• Remove all packing materials.

• All parts of the Slow Cooker need to be thoroughly cleaned before being used for the rst

time (see ‘Care and Maintenance’).

PREPARATION

• Some of the recipes call for meat to be browned and/or vegetables to be sautéed. Do this

in a pan – not in the ceramic bowl. Do not use the ceramic bowl for cooking anywhere other

than inside the slow cooker.

• Thaw frozen food completely before adding to the ceramic bowl.

• Soak dried peas and beans for 8 hours (or overnight) before cooking, to soften them.

WARNING: Dried beans (e.g. red kidney beans) must be boiled for at least 10 minutes

before being added to the slow cooker. They are poisonous if eaten raw or undercooked.

• Lentils do not need soaking overnight.

• Store ingredients prepared beforehand (e.g. the night before) in a refrigerator. Do not put the

slow cooker or the ceramic bowl in the refrigerator as it may cause the bowl to crack when

heated.

• Root vegetables (potatoes, carrots, onions, etc.) take much longer to cook that meat. Cut them into

5mm slices, sticks or dice. If possible, sauté gently for 2-3 minutes before adding to the ceramic

bowl.

• Dried vegetables must be immersed in the cooking liquid.

• When cooking with rice, use at least 150ml of cooking liquid for each 100g of rice.

• Pasta is not suitable for slow cooking – it will become too soft. If your recipe requires pasta,

it should be stirred in 30-40 minutes before the end of the cooking time.

Most recipes can be cooked on either HIGH or LOW. Many recipes will give the time for both.

LOW: Often used for longer cooking times, 8–10 hours, or less tender cuts of meat.

HIGH: Cooking on high setting is similar to a covered pot on the stovetop. Foods will cook

on high in about half the time required for low cooking. Additional liquid may be

required as foods can boil on high.

WARM: Only use to keep cooked foods at a food-safe serving temperature and should not be

used to cook foods. It is not recommended to use WARM for more than 4 hours.

GENERAL USE

• Decide when you want to eat and when you want to start cooking.

• Find a recipe that suits your timings. If you want to eat at 6pm and you need to start

cooking at 8am, nd a recipe that takes about 10 hours.

• Prepare the food as described in the recipe.

TIP: Cut food into similar sized pieces to ensure food is evenly cooked.

• Sit the slow cooker on a stable, level, heat-resistant surface and out of reach of children.

• Connect to the wall power outlet and switch the outlet on.

• Remove the lid and place the food in the ceramic bowl.

• Replace the lid.

• Turn the dial to the desired heat setting and the power indicator light will glow, indicating

the unit is operating.

NOTE: Do not use the WARM setting to cook.

NOTE: A recipe that takes 10 hours would only ever be cooked using LOW setting.

• When cooking time is done, either turn the control knob to WARM or switch the appliance

OFF. Do not keep foods on the WARM setting for more than 4 hours.

• Using oven gloves remove the lid from the slow cooker and set it on a heat proof surface.

• Serve the food.

• Unplug the appliance when not in use and always allow the slow cooker to completely cool

before cleaning.

TIP: Cleaning can be made much easier if you remove all the cooked food from the

ceramic bowl, then ﬁll it with warm water (see ‘Care and Maintenance’).

RECIPES

There are a few recipes in this book to get you started.

Use them initially to familiarise yourself with the capabilities of your slow cooker. Then using them as

a guide, vary the ingredients, vary the quantities and taste the results. Keep notes, write down what

changes you make, and you will quickly build up a range of recipes which suit your taste.

To adapt your own recipes for the slow cooker, we suggest you nd a recipe which uses similar

ingredients and use that as a guide for timing and liquid quantity, along with the food preparation

guidelines given earlier.

NOTE: Be careful with quantities – once all the initial ingredients are put in the ceramic

bowl, it shouldn’t be more than ¾ full, to allow for expansion.

SOUP

If homemade soup appeals to you, then try some in your slow cooker. Tasty, homemade soups

can be left simmering all day or overnight. Soup benets from long cooking, so there is no need

to worry if it is left for a few hours longer than intended. Flavours develop and infuse slowly and

gently.

Tips for making soup in your slow cooker:

• Trim and cut up the meat and/or vegetables to similar sized portions to ensure even

cooking.

• Sear food lightly in a large pan with a little cooking oil for a richer avour.

• For a thicker soup, stir in our or cornour, and then gradually add stock.

• Do not add milk until the nal half hour of cooking.

• Cream or egg yolk may be added just before serving.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

• Before doing anything else, unplug the slow cooker from the wall socket.

• Using oven gloves, remove the lid and ceramic bowl and place them on a heatproof

surface.

• Even if you do not intend to wash up right away, ll the ceramic bowl with warm water,

otherwise the residual heat may bake any food debris on the ceramic bowl, making its

eventual removal more difcult.

WARNING: Do Not add cold water to a hot ceramic bowl.

• Do not soak the exterior of the ceramic bowl in water. The base is porous and will soak

up water which may cause it to crack when heated. Wash the lid and ceramic bowl in hot

soapy water using a cloth or sponge, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Do not use a scouring

pad. The ceramic bowl and lid may be washed in the dishwasher.

• All other surfaces, internal and external, should be wiped with a damp cloth. You may use

a little mild household detergent (washing up liquid) if necessary. These surfaces should be

dry before re-using the slow cooker or storing it away.

• After some time in use, the glaze on the ceramic bowl may develop ‘crazing’, a network of

small cracks. This marking is supercial and should not be a cause for concern.

• Do not immerse the body of the slow cooker in water or any other liquid.

• Do not use harsh or abrasive cleaners.

STORING

Make sure that the appliance is thoroughly dry. Never wrap the cord tightly around the

appliance; keep it loosely coiled. Placing the lid on upside-down for storage can help save

space.
